I had the Urolift procedure done three years ago, and I'm very happy with the results.

Would you do this procedure for Chronic Prostatitis? I'm 39 years old and have suffered for over 3 years. Constant urge to urinate, pain in the prostate, many other symptoms. I've tried everything besides surgery.

How long until recovery???

I had it done 5 years ago I still experience pain and discomfort I haven't been able to ejaculate since and I have mild to severe nerve pain on my right testicle and most of the time I have the pain start around my pelvic groin area all the way to my testicle just the right side now I have to receive nerve block injection every 1-2 months.

I just had mine removed, it hurt so bad I had tears in my eyes.

My name is Rafael I had this procedure done and it's been 2 and a half months but I'm constantly having to go to the bathroom and only drips at times and none at other times and unable to stop the stream at times and urinating on myself

Why didn't you share your video with your Father ??...LOL Thanks for the information.

Brother in law had TURP, 4 months later still wearing depends or he constantly leaks.

I had the LIFT procedure. The procedure takes 20 to 40 minutes. No catheter, and no time recovery. Once you live the doctors office. Your way if life is normal, as when you were 30.. I had this proceduredone over a year ago. My two friends had had the same procedure 4 years ago and no problems. But I know that sometimes you may need other procedures, turp, laser which takes about one hour. Remember, every doctor know only one procedure, and they don't tell you that are better procedure around. I know that once you get turp or laser done, and the time recovery has passed. You are good for life

Can I ask what is the percentage occurrence of a contracted bladder after turp. Thx

I'm 41 and in the 5th week post-op and it's painful when I stand or walk and also when I sit down. When I lay down I have no pain and it's no infection. I have problems to go to work. Is this normal, do I have to wait to week 8? Will it get better soon? And at work I sometimes have stress-incontinence. I don't know what to do, my urogolist told me to wait 6 weeks and we will see. But in week 5 I still have pain in the prostate and it goes down to the penis. Can you give me some information please? What is this pain, is it normal?

I'm at that point now, 71 years old. Urologist told me it's either medication the rest of my life to deal with the prostate or TURP. You've settled my mind concerning this procedure, Thank you.

Thank you for the video. On June 17 the doctor will do a balloon dilation of urethral stricture with Optilume drug-coated balloon to dilate the urethral stricture and make sure that it is open for the T.U.R.P. surgery. The doctor has to make sure the opening in the urethra is wide enough to get the T.U.R.P. tool inside. Then the T.U.R.P. surgery on June 28. I have had some form of catheter for 7 months.

6/12/2024 Dr. Lin, please try to contact the staff of Melinda French Gates to see if you might qualify to get paid for doing (sliding scale or free) vasectomies to help out with the current crises. A few days ago on radio news, it was announced that MFG started a 1 Billion Fund for Women, to improve the lives of women. This could help millions of women, after their partner gets a vasectomy. Best Wishes to All

What procedure though?

I’m still bleeding after 3 weeks

My GP Dr. referred me to a Urologist over a decade ago. I was around 52. The urologist saw me annually since that time. I am now 64. He did reccomend TURP quite a few years ago and we did talk about permenant damage if I didn't do anything about it. First was drugs and then we opted for UROLIFT 3 years ago. He did say he'd rather perform the golden standard TURP, but we used the UL instead. It failed. 7 days ago he performed the TURP. The suffering is minor. I call it uncomfortable inconvenience. I am so glad that my GP reccomended him in the first place. I'm looking forward to getting through the rehab period and getting my life back.

Having this done in Flagstaff next week. Dr tells me I will have a catheter for 3 days. He tells me probably overnight hospital stay. I wish I was in Chandler to see Dr Lin.

Wow. this was sooo good. thankyou.

Mujhe kidney stone tha 12mm kahi dino tak maine ilaj kiya kuch fyda nhi mila liya usee bhi koi fyda nhi mila akhir me maine khadnol+Livcon capsule & syrup choose kiya aur tabhi Amazon se order krke lena chalu kiya 3 mahine liya stone ki problem khatam ho gayi aur dard bhi aram kahi dino me!;

No Catheter? Lucky man.

I had TURP a week ago today. So far it has been 'perfect', flushing with solution after op, catheter removed the morning after the op, home that afternoon and bladder control good, some urgency, much better flow, and emptying, yippee. Only issue is bleeding, a small amount of blood at the start of every time I pee, accompanied by a small amount of stinging, this is apparently normal, for a few weeks. The discomfort soon passes......a minute or so.

Very painful 💔 😅😂

The knowing where all the bathrooms are is both hilarious and so true. I will even choose a destination based on the location of the toilets. I have had my problem for 10 years, since I was 53. I have had two bladder stones, the first ten years ago. Which was removed, part of the process I had awful bladder spasms (catheter). Even after this I still had issues regards urgency, UTIs and nocturia (4-5 times a night). I lived with it for n years, until the last bladder stone, thought I had another about two years ago. Went to docs, after months of waiting was scanned (NHS), another few months and then saw consultant (NHS). Consultant rec. TURP and Lithoscopic removal of Stone. Again waited three months, by that point I went Private (UK, £6k), got the stone removed, relief......(and no catheter issues, more relief). Waited another 6 months (NHS) to get the TURP done (which will resolve the cause, finger crossed). It was done last Thursday (one week ago). For the first time I can pee without squeezing n times, and still not emptying. It's like a fire hose now...... ;-) Just have to retrain bladder, and get over the TURP OP itself (still some bleeding and urgency), but it already feels like it is going to be life changing. You guys do great work, urologists are now my favourite physicians.

I have had catheters four times, on the second time I had bladder spasms, that were pretty much left untreated for an overnight period. 12 hours of absolute agony. For the other three times, no issues. Now I know about the drugs they can use to help with the spasms.

Thank you for this. I had my TURP done 7 weeks ago and wish I had seen this before. My recovery is still in progress. Unfortunately I didn’t have the kind of pre-procedure consultation this video provides. I was not prepared. All I got was “oh it’s great”, “nothing to worry about” , “quick procedure” etc. 4 to 6 weeks recovery they said. Well I’m here to tell you it’s been 7 weeks and it’s slow going. Flow is good immediately, but, for now, urgency is worse, frequency is no better (worse at night), spasms are uncomfortable after peeing, and dribbling after also bothersome. I’m trying to be patient and have a follow up mid July so we’ll see how it is by then. Your video gives me hope. One thing I will say is the discussion around retrograde ejaculation is downplayed too much. Sure I’m 64 and the only babies I want are grandkids (had a vasectomy 30 years ago anyway). It’s dismissed as no big deal. I say that’s subjective. Unless you’ve experienced it you don’t know. It’s different and I don’t like it. Again, I’ll be patient and I’m sure I’ll get used to it, but I wasn’t prepared for it. So great video. Guys, if you’re getting it done, just be prepared. In the long run I’m sure it will be worth it, but be prepared and patient.

Must have showed up pre-medicated!

Weird

No Foley after the surgery? That's great! I was basically bullied, the day after my surgery, into wearing a foley for a week. The reason? I was able to pee, but it wasn't deemed good enough. I had been using intermittent catheters for six months prior to my surgery. I fully expected to not pee perfectly on the first day. What therapeutic value could be gained from wearing a Foley catheter for a week after TURP surgery?

Great video on TURP experience sharing; very encouraging!

Laying in hospital in recovery from the OP, the spasms are out if this world..with cathetor I still feel likes it's a full bladder

I've changed my mind am going to do the urolift I've put off to long thanks both of you,if I could I'd come see you guys thanks for posting this

Do you like to see the graphic? Or you are able to see de numbers and identify the problem? How many seconds you say its abnormal?

If a TURP fails because of the formation of scar tissue, are there other options available after that, that might be successful?

Tell the guys those meds like Flomax may cause a more aggressive prostate cancer.

What other procedure can my husband have that preserves continence and sexual function?

No cath explaine?

Good information here. How long, on average did it take before you can exercise? Such as cycling or running?

During bowel movement I have involentary bladder leakage. Is this normal.

I'm 67 I had the TURP procedure 3 weeks ago after having a bladder infection and catheter for 4 months. Now no full stream, A weak steam, splatter stream or drip stream, I'm hopping it will get get better.

Respect to dr I'm from England 🇬🇧 and I need this treatment you take me fell much better thank you

I did the PAE over 2 years ago. Got off Flomax for 2 years but lately back on 1 pill a day (Tamsulosin). Have done Rezum in the past. What should I do next? I hate taking drugs to correct a mechanical problem.

Hi I have a catheter in but I noticed some bleeding on the outside of the tube,what can cause this and it feels like something blocking

Great explanation. I have a TURP booked for later this month with an excellent specialist and your video has reassured me thanks.

Question: Just how much do you charge for a bilateral epididymectomy?

My Dr says he will have me with catheter for 3 days after turp! Not looking forward to that.

I’m just like this man,putting it off for years and years. Just got used to being miserable. Can’t take it any longer. Hope damage to bladder isn’t too bad. I know prostrate has grown into neck of! Volfson tried to get me to commit 10 yr ago.

Scheduled to have turp June 17. In Flagstaff. Rumohr.. hope he is as good as Dr Lin seems to be.

I’m sure you just chose a random patient out of the mini that you perform this procedure on and that she is very representative of the patient experience… Insert sarcastic facial expression here… You well know that many if not, most of your patients have a far different experience, especially male patients due to the anatomical differences. But it might be an effective video for you to convince people to go through with the procedure so well done.

Don't believe them nothing work, you can be sur that the BPH will come back only one thing work, a very strict diet and a lot of sport
