Go to search in this section. Many good and bad stories about the AMS800

I had surgery in 2010 and radiation in 2014. Six years later, I started having incontinence problems and they’ve gotten progressively worse. I’m going to have an AUS installed in June. I’ve been to a couple of seminars where they have talked about the devices that are available. The AUS seems to be the answer for me because I’ve had radiation to the prostate bed.

If you’ve not had radiation to the prostate bed and do not expect to have it, then you can also consider the ProACT Device. It has a real advantage in that you don’t have to press the bulb in order to pee. It is implanted in your body, just like an AUS, but they can adjust the pressure it puts on your urethra to reduce your leaking to Almost nothing.. Do not expect the AUS to completely reduce your incontinence, but it will make a major difference, At the most, you’ll need a thin pad.

Here are some firsthand experience from somebody in this forum.
