Aquablation: Post-surgery expectations
Men's Health | Last Active: 21 hours ago | Replies (156)Comment receiving replies
I had my Aquablation procedure on December 3, 2024. So, I'm coming up on two months. I have intense urgency to pee when I drink anything, which was part of the reason I had the procedure in the first place. My bladder wasn't emptying and I had trouble with strength of stream. My prostate was relatively small 30g but was wrapped around my bladder in a bad way. I have some irritation in the tip of my penis as well that I thought was a UTI but tested negative and Urologist said that is part of the prostate healing process. I also have no ejaculate yet- just a tiny bit of clear fluid. Anyone else have this experience. What should I be expecting? Do I need to just wait?

In my recent discussion with the surgeon regarding blood in my urine after not seeing it for weeks I was advised that it could take 6 mos. to a year to see the final results. In the meantime in this call he advised me to stop the Tamsolusin. I did and now urinating is more painful and not with the flow I was getting - geeze. One step forward and two back. I am hopeful that my prostate is adjusting to being weaned from the med and will lose the pain and regain the flow. Getting old is not for the feint of heart.

77 years old, a 130 gram prostate.
I'm five months in from my aqua surgery. frequency and urgency are just starting to go away.. So is the burning.. Still having reverse ejack. Still, getting up two to three times a night. I'm hoping a few more months, and it may be totally healed. Who knows?
At least my flow has improved. and I'm urinating more volume, and I don't. have to wait to urinate. And I'm off the damn Flomax. and proscar. . So I think it was worth it.
