After my RARP is April, I was expecting or at least hoping for minimal or even no incontinence. Did kegles for a month or so before surgery, very good health and physically fit, nerve sparing procedure at a center of excellence. To the contrary, my incontinence was pretty significant for the first couple of months and included the inconsistent flow you mentioned. However, I'm happy to report that with PT therapy, religious adherence to my kegles and other recommended exercises, and avoiding bladder irritating food and beverage, I'm down to one or two pads at day with the pads often being dry when changed. So continue with your protocols and remain positive as you will almost certainly improve significantly in the months to come.

Thanks. I am exercising and starting to up my kegels, as the post-surgery pain down. Like you, I did prior kegels and am fit. Looking forward to improvements and return to a more active life, other than just walking. Thanks again for the details. Best to you.
