@ken224 Agreed!

@ken224 absolutely. My doctor said 20% risk of RE, but the question is what exactly constitutes RE. For example I get a very small amount of ejaculate. I would call it RE, but the doctor might not. Still, tamsulosin gives most men RE and many of us start with that treatment. The one point i will make is that those of us who have come to consider surgery have a serious condition that is only going to get worse and inaction due to fear of something as minimal as RE is going to make matters worse. I've seen posts here of men who actually chose self catheterization over surgery because they feared RE. Delaying treatment is damaging your bladder which can result in increased urgency, frequency and leakage when you are eventually left with no choice but to have surgery regardless of the procedure chosen. I have RE as i described above, but I do experience some periods of increased urgency and overactive bladder. It's usually not a problem and I am only getting up one time a night, but I delayed surgery because I feared it. Had I had it years earlier my results likely would have been even better. In the end I am SO much better than pre aquablation and I think that is true of the vast majority of those who receive aquablation. I guess my ultimate long-winded point is that RE is not nothing and all of us would prefer not to be affected by it, but the effects of inaction and delaying treatment will make the end result worse. There are things much worse than RE.
