After Prostate Surgery: Tim's Experience with TURP at Sunrise Urology 

I had TURP done in April, spend 20 hours in the hospital getting flushed with a Folley catheter. The only significant pain that I felt from the entire TURP experience happened when the Folley catheter was removed and that only lasted a minute. I was able to urinate right after the catheter was removed so I didn't have to go home with a catheter. Blood in the urine was gone in 3 days, started walking my usual 7 miles/day 4 days after surgery. Started riding my bike and lifting weights 6 weeks after surgery, per surgeons orders. After 15 years of suffering from BPH, I feel GREAT now... wish I would've had TURP done years ago.

Not fun to have, but it works like a dream! Had mine 2 months ago!

I highly recomend getting this done.

It's nice that the gentleman has a good sense of humour.

The pain after the operation is strong

How was the "pain aspect"? Pain with urination, pain with catheterization, flushing and clots, , possible stricture and blockage issues. What's the realistic expectation? These videos only show people who seem to indicate that it's a piece of cake. I suspect it's not.

I under go TURP surgery before 02 months. No sperm coming out. Please advise me Thank you.

This channel has a lot of success stories, and literally no bad ones... hmmm. It is suspicious but encouraging to hear them, yet far more men share terrible post-surgery experiences from their TURP. After all, 50-year technique is still the gold standard? If they CAN REPAIR A HEART WITH A STENT, I have never understood why some doctor hasn't come up with some kind of stent for this prostate issue. I mentioned this to a doctor and he said it has to do with uric acid, but if we all pee in a ceramic toilet, surely they can solve the uric acid/stent issue. My TURP is scheduled for the first week in Sept, and I fear months of post surgery suffering, incontinence and impotence. Five years ago I had the Urolift with little relief, now finally surrendering to the TURP out of sheer desperation, just exhausted thinking about down there every damn day. Been living with BPH for probably 20 years.

how did you wash out at home?

I had a UROlift procedure in 2018 did nothing for me so just before covid in 2020 my consultant recommended a TURP once again did nothing for me, now he wants me to have another TURP must make my mind up soon my head is spinning 🤔

Why wouldn't you use GreenLight Laser instead of TURP?

What treatment can I ask for as I have no ability to get a full erection and have leakage. It has been 6 months since my turp

One hears all kinds of misleading information.. I was informed that erections are definitely not going to happen with TURP operation but holmium Lazer or green light is far superior and minimal risk of not getting a erection . Please someone put me correct

Turp is a living horror show. I strongly discourage it. Your doctor will not tell you the negative effects. Depression, incontinence frequent urination, erectile disfunction.

After this procedure you can’t ejaculate semen.
