Has anyone experienced incontinence after HOLEP surgery ?

Did you experience strong bruning sensation when peeing, after HOLEP? Did you make the surgery with a procedure called MILEP (less invasive)? How do you hidrate yourself knowing that after drinking a lot of water you have to pee painfully? How do you cope with this? Medicines help to relieve the pain? Thank you

The burning was not strong but was uncomfortable. I stayed the course, stayed hydrated and took Tylenol for the pain. I am not familiar with MILEP.

I had median lobe holep 1/31/25
As of today I’m not experiencing any major issues side effects associated with this procedure.
My nerves in the area treated still feel slightly sore now and then.

I did not experience any burning after HOLEP. I didn't have the MILEP. I drink water when I am thirsty. I bowl on Thursdays and just drink one 20 ounce bottle of water while bowling the 3 games. I can get through the games without having to change my diaper. I did have a UTI earlier this month because I cut back on my water. I am now drinking water more often even if it is just a sip while trying to keep my diaper dry. I am getting close to 4 months post surgery and it looks like I have a long way to go before I get the incontinence under control.
