Incontinence after surgery varies considerably. Some people have none, or very little. Others get serious incontinence that goes on for weeks or months. It usually recovers, But there are no guarantees in prostate cancer treatment.

You can get a clamp, I use the Weisner clamp available on Amazon. Can only wear it for about two hours without repositioning it, but that gives some relief.

There are other solutions, but it is too soon for you to consider them. It could start getting better in the next few months.

Some people get the sling, there is Bulkamid, and the AUS artificial urinary sphincter an implanted device that has a button in your scrotum to press to pee.

Give it time.

I've had total incontinence since my RP Feb. 2021. Two AUS surgeries have failed. The best product I have found that lets me function half way normally is Men's Liberty. I hope in time you get your control back,but in the mean time I would look into this product.
Good Luck TE
