Retrograde ejaculation after TURP
Posted , 13 users are following.
Sirs,
I'm 52 years old,I had prostrate enlargement for two years from the size of 40 to 122. Beginning stage I got the feeling of urinating several times,it started dripping before entering the toilet. Last month it was stopped fully,no urine going,huge pain,after checking ultra sound my urologist advised to go for TURP,but he never expalained me anything about the aftermath of that TURP procedure. Dr. did the TURP on 19/05/17 everything went ok now I feel alright but one thing that is I don't get ejaculation. I get erection, sexual feelings but no ejaculation. Is it will continue or I'll get back?

Did you take any meds before or currently? Flomax can cause same symptoms. There is a chance with TURP of ending up with RE tho. Depends on your surgeon or your particular body. Everyone is different. Some get it, some don't.

That was wrong if your urologist not to inform you of the one almost guaranteed side effect of retrograde evacuation. As far as I know it is not reversible i

You will never get it back.. It's just another doctor not giving the patient the information. You should have waited and looked into it. Your lucky you can still have a erection and the feelings because that sometimes goes a way to. That doctor was wrong should have told you all of the side effects so you could have made your discision. They feel when we get older we don't need it because we are not having kids. You could say he castrated you It does the same thing Take care Ken PS How is your peeing problem That is all the doctor was trying to fix

My experience is exactly like yours Wally. The best way I can describe it is it's like listening to music in the next room-you can recognize the tune but can't make out the words. I really wonder if it's worth all the effort.

BAUS information includes it. Search 'TURP leaflet'.

The urologist should have warned you about RE. It's unlikely ejaculation will come back - sorry.

I have never heard of this being reversed.
Sorry to say.

Interesting, that your uro, didn't tell you that this would happen. Either that, or you missed it when it was explained to you?
