Re: Bladder capacity 4 weeks post pvp

I doubt very much that it is your bladder capacity per se. I had a PVP
5 weeks ago and have the very same problems you describe. (I also void
frequently and only about 100 --- altho it is now increasing.) I am
told that all of this is to be expected and that both your capacity to
"hold" more and the amount you void will improve over time. Everything
is so sensitive down there now that you have the urgency to urinate
when your bladder has less in it than you were used to from the past.

One suggestion: Drink most of your fluids earlier in the day (and
don't drink after 6 PM), but be sure you still get your 7 or 8 8 -oz.
glasses. See if this helps you get up less frequently at night.

Richard,

Is the procedure you had really called PVP? I thought PVP referred only to Green Light laser and that the Holmium was called HoLAP.
