Has anyone tried therapy prior to RARP to prepare for incontinence

Posted by someoneelse @someoneelse, Sep 17, 2025

I read somewhere where some guys have gone to therapy to prepare for post surgical continence issues with kegel exercises etc.

My surgery will be in mid October and I want to be ready. I talked to my surgeon about it and he wasn't a big supporter of that but said it might be worth trying.

I'm in the DFW area and open to any recommendations.

Thanks

I did Kegels prior so that I would know how they feel.

My surgeon had told me to and it helped enormously. I also tried to do a lot of exercise prior to the surgery so my body was prepared for what was coming.
