I had a TURP at NHS Lister Stevenage Herts England, 30 days ago. I had BHP. That procedure has improved my quality of life beyond belief. Im 63 years old, keep fit fiend. No visible blood after week one. Until the op. Id experienced lower abdominal pains for a decade. Now gone. My inability to pee meaningfully prompted me to visit my GP who reffered me to a consultant urologist. Men, any problems down there see a doctor, get over yourselves, theyve seen it 100s of times. Nice work chaps.

What prostate volume before TURP? It’s a bit old-fashioned surgery, nowadays we rather do HoLEP which has less bleeding, removes more adenoma if done correctly and reduces the risk for a re-do surgery in the future

@@obi-wan-cod-obi6692 early 40s with tamsulozin + solifenacin? Yeah sounds like it but how much of your problem is the overactive component ? I would do it sooner or later (usually) but it all depends on your personal situation.

Could someone please explain how PSA Density is a part of this conversation? If someone has a density of .21 in mid-60s, for example. Thanks.

Insulin resistance. The University at Glasgow has added mebendazole to docetaxel for PC. Mebendazole is Rx, Fenbendazole is not. Either may be used as a preventive iirc. They are cheap. Also, Ivermectin has been added to TNBC by the City of Hope, so there's that.

Amazing content!! I’m a new subscriber, PSA went from 6.4 to 10.5 in 3 months, did biopsy, couldn’t tell me if it was negative /positive. Went in the tube, still no answers. Went in the tube again, 4 months later 3.1 mm lump in already huge prostrate according to the doctor. He wants to do biopsy of the lump on the prostrate, is it a normal procedure to open (biopsy) a potential cancerous tumor? Any issue with additional cells entering other areas of the body during biopsy. I keep hearing about Amy, who is Amy and where does she practice?

Radical prostatectomy still, in 2024, carries high risk of nerve damage which precipitates erectile dysfunction and incontinence.
