Has anyone experienced incontinence after HOLEP surgery?

At the 3 month visit with my urologist he did a cystoscopy and said all looked great. Told me it may take up to a year to get through the incontinence. I was using 6 to 7 diapers a day for the first 3 months and now use 2 to 3 diapers a day. I leak very little at night but lots when I am up moving around. If I sat and watched TV all day I would have no issues at all. Probably use just one diaper per day. If I walk around a lot I can’t urinate. The more movement I do the more I leak. I have to be sitting for about an hour till I can flow freely. My urologist is in Lake Havasu Arizona. I too don’t want to share his name.

Your experience sounds like mine. four months since holep, I stay pretty dry at night but after peeing in morning it is leaking almost constantly all day long when I am on my feet doing things. I still use about 7 guards a day most of the time. If I sit or lie down I barely leak at all. Very difficult to go anywhere or do much without being tied to your depends. I have been doing kegels for more than three months so far with little change.
