New Information

Good Evening all.  I throught you guys may fine this interesting.  I could not sleep last night so I was on the computer looking at some stuff on the internet.  I found a Urology Journal and the Mayo Clinic have been reporting that there is a decline in the Turp procedures in the last 10 years. By 40%  Alot of men are looking things up and not taking there doctor word on it and it not the fix all it once was.  Sometime a turp does work but there have been many men that have to have a second turp in 3 of 6 month's.  It suppose to last 15 years.  Same with Holep after sometime you have to have a turp to clean up the mess.  Also men to not want to deal with the side effets that comes with a turp. These are some of them you may get.  Difficulty urinating, infection. dry orgams. ED. Men with large prostate have higher risk of significant blood loss.  Which require a blood transfusion.  Men are saying no to the turp and going with less invasive Procedure like Urolife, Itind, Rezum,  PAE, FLA. and not having any procedure.  Just doing CIC to deal with there problems.  In our fathers day they never talk about prostate problem.  I don't ever think that new what a prostate was.  Today men have each other and friends and family and sites like this to talk and fine out thay are not alone.  Remember what ever procedure you pick get all the information you can.  The pros and cons.  The good and bad.  You have the right to choose and don't be force my a doctor.  Take care and may all of you have a happy New year with good health  Ken
