PAE procedure and Erectile disfunction
Posted , 8 users are following.
I am about to have PAE on thursday. I saw that someone posted here that they had erection issues after PAE. I have not seen that in any research I have done over a 2 year period. The Doctor doing my PAE is Dr Bagla. Has anyone heard of this issue after treatment?

I don't know if having children is still a concern for you, but wanted to let you know that my doc told me just before the procedure that there is a possibility of sterilization due to the possibility of some unintended embolization of the seminal vesicle.

The size of my prostate was in the mid 50s cc and I have a large median lobe.
I had mine done at UNC w/ Dr. Isaacson. He's a fantastice guy and I recommend him. He and Dr. Bagla have done the most of anyone outside of Brazil and Portugal and they aresupportive of each other.

Sexual function has also improved with no ED. One of the main advantages of PAE over other procedures such as TURP or HOLEP is that ED is extremely unlikely, whereas after TURP or HOLEP sex life is usually ruined. I have never heard of anyone having ED after PAE.
My procedure was carried out after being accepted onto a clinical trial (ROPE). Only patients who are without other complications are accepted for this trial, which of course means that the success rate will be high. In my case PAE has been a life changer.
All the best with your PAE procedure on Thursday
