Penetrative sex after UroLift insertion

Posted by dsbailey2025 @dsbailey2025, Jan 19 8:24am

The UroLift procedure inserts metal staples in a man's prostate to "lift" tissue that limits urine flow and allow a stronger stream in folks with enlarged prostate.
I'm wondering if there is the possibility of trauma to prostate tissue or breakage of the UroLift staples (it happens) after vigorous penetrative sex or prostate massage. Any research or experience, anyone?? Thanks

Interested. I've been dealing with a combined issue of BPH and urinary incontinence for the past five years with my urologist. A UroLift has been mentioned as a possible future procedure. I'm currently recovering from GRS, which complicates the issue somewhat.

I am wondering if there is any research on whether the staples used for the UroLift procedure can cause trauma to the prostate during vigorous penetrative (anal) sex. Anyone have experience with this??
