A member asked:
Can l-theanine help relax my urethral sphincter like alphablockers can?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not : L theanine acts more as a brain stimulant and may help lower blood pressure but there are no scientific studies to prove this . I won't substitute this with Alpha blockers . Discuss with your urologist
