@heath2026 No, that time is accurate. I was scheduled for 3 hours and twenty minutes. Took a little longer than expected. I had a 200 gram prostate. If you research you will note that HoLEP scales linearly, meaning the bigger the prostate the longer it takes.

@heath2026
I guess I'll find out next summer. Got prostate reduction with dutasteride, but not enough. Currently not enlarged enough to need TURP. I will need intervention, but not on asap basis.
