REZUM PROSTATE THERAPY - JUST HAD IT DONE

Posted , 9 users are following.

Procedure was performed at 1st Urology in Louiville, Dr. Becker, on 14 April. Good Doctor, I like him.

Here's what I've experienced so far:

Procedure completed on Friday, had a cat and it was removed the following Monday.

The procedure itself is quite painful, but only for 9 seconds at a time. Post operative main wasn't much, and I really didn't feel anything in the prostate before the local wore off (except during the procedure as mentioned).

So I have quite bloody urine with little chunks in it, and it burns to pee. I have quite a bit of urinary urgency at this time. I'm pretty confident this will all clear up after 6 - 8 weeks have passed.

I am having either dry or bloody / pussy ejaculations. I'm hoping I'm not left with dry ones, that would suck. Pleasure is definitely decreased.

I guess the dry thing is rare, but I'm hoping it will clear up. Since I sometimes get the mess, I don't think it's retrograde, I just think I'm not producing semen at this point. If anybody can enlighten me I'd appreciate it.

This is probably the best procedure to have done at this time, but I'll try and keep this updated.

    I'm glad it worked well for you.

    In my practice, I offer all my patients anesthesia for the procedure (administered by a board anesthesiologists) as I think it can be uncomfortable.

    My partner performs them awake, however, and hasn't had an issue.

    I usually tell patients that you WILL have some irritation for a few weeks, but you most likely will be delighted after about 3 months.
