I had transrectal and, at the time, I had no idea that there was a choice. I had zero issues, one big antibiotic pill beforehand and it was done.

Same here...big pill and fleet a couple hours before procedure. Zero issue with infection, however, the "It's not going to hurt, you'll just feel pressure" was pure crap. Two of the samples sent me to the ceiling and it felt like someone kicked me in the groin for a couple days after. I am certainly not looking forward to another one.
