@robertov Interesting. Both Barrigel and SpaceOAR report “…significantly reducing rectal toxicity (bleeding, diarrhea) and improving urinary (GU) & sexual quality of life (QoL)….with studies showing better preservation of erectile function and fewer bowel/bladder issues post-treatment.”

Still, sometimes it can happen…..
