Hi,

My husband had a prostatectomy in 2013. Cancer returned in 2015 and he received salvage radiotherapy which left him with strictures in 2018. Frankly, there was a discussion of a supra-pubic catheter as a "last resort", however, my husband chose to go the route of self catheterization which he has been doing weekly for 5 years. Outside of this, we have no knowledge of any other alternatives. In fact, he just met with the Mayo Urologists and they haven't made any progress in the past 5 years which is kind of shocking and certainly disappointing. Overall, he said that while it is definitely not something any man wants to do, it's better than the alternative! Best of luck to you and God Bless!
