Optilume balloon therapy for BPH

I never said that my incontinence was a result of the Optilume procedure. Incontinence started right after the prostatectomy in May of 2021. The Optilume procedure was performed in August of 2023, I have never had any discomfort from the procedure and after 18 months, there is no indication of any scare tissue, all tissue is very healthy looking, the area remains wide open with an excellent flow. Waiting for an AUS, hopefully, soon.

Thanks @davyde. Glad to hear that you have good results from Optilume, now about 1 1/2 year ago. Maybe that is the way to go?
I talked to a urologist, who said that the incontinence is often seen for a while after various procedures, simply because there is now more pressure on the "valve", but that it can usually be eliminated by exercises.
