Your situation is very common, as others have mentioned—and that’s been my experience as well. I had prostate surgery last September and am still dealing with incontinence.

I’m currently working with a new physical therapist who performed a biofeedback evaluation to ensure I’m contracting the correct muscles. She is now helping me integrate Kegel exercises—not just in isolation (like lying down, which I was mostly doing before with my first physical therapist), but into everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, and getting up from a chair.

I plan to continue this approach for at least the next 10 weeks and am hopeful that things will improve. For now, I’m not considering surgical options like an AUS; I’d like to fully exhaust physical therapy and give my body up to 12 months post-surgery to recover.
