Question: Does the medicine Prednisone affect a male's erection!?
Hello, The doctor has prescribed me to be on prednisone and amoxcillin for a sinus and bronchitis infection combo!. Will prednisone, which is a steroid for my lungs due to asthma and bronchitis, affect my erection strength and the number of erections I will have while on the medication!? ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I had to take prednisone at one time for asthma but thankfully have not taken it for many years now!. I could detect no interference with erections but it is bad medicine and should be taken only for the shortest possible time!. The way my last doctor prescribed it was a burst for about ten days and then off!. Previous doctor had advised a maintenance dose, ie taking it uninterruptedly!. This is less desirable because it carries a greater chance of building a dependence!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
