Orgasms after Aquablation
I had an aquablation procedure two weeks ago. I have had some urine flow issues but my doc says that all went well and I am recovering properly. There was one topic on which he was entirely unclear, however, and the internet thus far has failed to provide useful information. Similarly, my email to the aquablation developer has gone unanswered.
This seems like information that should be available readily but it is not, so I will ask here: how soon after aquablation is it safe to have an orgasm? I already am having erections, so I would like to know what I can do with them.
I previously had a laser prostate procedure. At its conclusion, the urologist was quite clear: no orgasms for 45-60 days or risk damaging my internal organs. I haven't had similar warnings this time, so I wonder if the risks are the same or less significant with the more modern procedure.
I appreciate any information you can provide.

I had my Aquablation procedure at 2PM on September 25, 2024. Within an hour after the procedure I was already having semi erections. I spent that night in the hospital with very minimal pain. I had saline consistently going in and out of my bladder by way of foley catheter. Six days after my procedure I had voiding trial, voided like a champ! Those six days after my procedure and before the voiding trial I must've had about 20 semi erections with pre-ejaculate. I asked my doctor when I could have sex, he said two weeks. So far it's been 13 days since my procedure, 7 of those 13 days has been without a Foley catheter. Since my catheter was removed I've had a lot of semi and full blown erection with lots of pre-ejaculate. Tomorrow (September 26) makes 14 days and I'm ready to blow! I will be having sex, ill let you guys know the outcome.
Speaking as a woman......I'd say be thankful you are alive!
I hope that the choice isn't between being alive and not for men needing aquablation, but, if it is, I certainly won't argue with you. 😊
