Orgasms after Aquablation

I am in a similar situation but a bit more complex. I had my Aquablation 10 weeks ago. They sent me home with a Foley for three days during which time I had quite a bit of bleeding. Doc advised this was normal but the last day of the Foley I woke up in the middle of the night pretty covered in blood. Foley was removed in three days and they sent me home. I experienced a fair amount of bleeding and passing what looked to be clots for about a week and then everything was great thereafter. As they say peeing like a teenager. Then things took a turn for the worse in week three. My stream started to diminish and I was experiencing pain in the head of my penis. I called the Doc and they advised to keep an "eye on it" but let them know if the stream stopped. Duh yeah!. By five weeks out I could only get a few drops and my penis was going through contortions. They called me back in for a Systoscopy which they tried without anaesthetia. They hit a brick wall about 1/2" into the procedure. After peeling me off the ceiling, I was advised that they need to unblock a penile stricture and that this needed to be done in the hospital under anaesthetia. Had that done two weeks ago, Foley for three days and all seems well now. My big question is ..... when can I resume sexual activity. I am 77 but have always enjoyed a strong erection and for the past few days have been getting the old feeling back and mounting a pretty good erection. However, I am worried (after the previous episode) that it may be too soon. Anyone out there with a similar experience.

@bph24 - Welcome to Mayo Connect. A great place to ask questions and gain some new perspectives...

Aquablation is so new I don't think there's a set time table for a return to normal sexual activity. My doc said four-weeks and I stuck to that. I am now eight weeks post and all is working as expected...

Have you asked your urologist for a time table? (BTW - I love hearing about us 70+ year olds still going strong.)
