@albiet the last comment should ask “does” the fact there is no blood in my flushing mean that I won’t bleed once the catheter is removed?

@albiet there will likely continue to be some blood in your urine for several weeks. It may start and stop over those few weeks. Too much activity and it may start up again. It doesn't take much blood to make your urine pink or reddish.

@albiet the amount of blood you experience is likely directly related to work that was needed. My prostate was only ~40cm^3, and a relatively small amount of tissue needed to be removed. Those with prostates much larger will likely have more bleeding. "No blood in my flushing" would be a good indicator that you will have less blood in your urine once the catheter is removed. What was the size of your prostate?
