Thanks @mtsenior. I bled through my shorts and my jeans again today, so I had to go out and buy pads. Hoping this will resolve overnight.

@gerryp How many cores were taken? Wondering if a higher number of cores results in an increase of trauma to prostate. I had just 12. But your symptoms sound a little unusual and concerning. Hopefully the next couple days you will see marked improvement.

@gerryp If you haven't already checked in with your urologist, I would do so ASAP. All the bleeding you're experiencing after this many days is not what we've experienced. I've had 2 transperineal biopsies in the last 2 years and had nothing like you're experiencing. Good luck!
