ProAct vs. AUS

I had the ProACT implant back in September 2023 and no problems or leakage now. It is minimally invasive surgery and it took my urologist about 20 minutes. If you had radiation my urologist would not implant it. In the search box type “Can Anyone Tell Me About Their Experience With ProACT (AUS).” I listed my complete experience there with ProACT.

I conferred with a doctor from Arizona who said ProAct is helpful but, AUS gives better results and referred me to a doctor in NY who is the same one who repaired my stricture that came back and, wants to do the PA. I will ask him about the radiation. At this point I don't know what to do. Not really on board having to push a button to urinate.

I am awaiting my doctor's answer to the radiation ProAct question. He did not mention it when he suggested PA. On the other hand it seems urethral erosion is also more likely with an AUS
