Hello @tlosborne and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thank you for joining this discussion to share your experience with the green light laser treatment. Is your doctor concerned about your bleeding issue? Can you share more?

Yes, my doctor is concerned about the bleeding and scheduled me for an MRI the next day to see if the bleeding might be due to kidney stones. The results were negative, no kidney stones. After 16 years dealing with BPH and the long term side effects, i.e. continuing to take drugs and the wall of my bladder thickening and now bleeding issues, I'm looking for a more permanent solution.
