Transperineal is orders of magnitude better than transrectal in terms of infection risk, and you don't have to take preventative antibiotics. Perhaps that's why there's a longer waiting list.

Not too many urologists perform transperineal biopsies. I had one mainly because I seem to have a propensity to develop infections. I recommend transperineal.
