    I had Resume surgery June 18 of this yr. Got not good results from it. I still pee, every 1 to 1.5hrs. And if I drink beer it's worse. Like 30 to 45 min. I have to pee. So I found it to be a WASTE OF TIME!!!!

      thomas,

      what state did you have it done?

      how large was your prostate?

      did you have a large median lobe?

      how many steam shots did you get?

    I’m interested too in the response, but wondering if only people with issues monitor this site.

      There are a number of people on the site that have had success with Rezum. 

      I decided to have it done and am scheduling for next month.

      What state are you in.  I’m in Massachusetts.  How did you select the urologist to perform the surgery.  The one I am talking to has one year of experience with Rezum.  Castle Connolly is a good qualifier of  physicians.

      My urologist only has done 2 so I started looking. It wasn’t easy. I called a few and went and did a consultation. I also got to talk with a former patient who was a doctor and his went well. Hopefully mine will go well also.

    Do you trust your uro? Do you feel his genuine interest in you as a person? Do you feel he really wants the best for you? If you can answer yes 3 times, do it! I had surgery almost a year ago and doing very well (PAE and Rezum). All works perfectly well.

      emil,

      my uro is amazing. however for a procedure like this, i'd prefer someone that has done many of these rather than being the 3rd.
