Re: Bladder capacity 4 weeks post pvp


This is one of the things they don't tell you about. False urgency
seems to be pretty common after PVP. I had the same thing until over
two months afterwards and still, at over three months, am still not
using my full bladder capacity, though it is now improving markedly.
The theory I have developed is that the damage to the bladder neck
allows urine to fill the reamed-out prostate, pushing against the
primary sphincter, causing the false urgency. As the bladder neck
heals and the prostate reforms back to its original size, things get
back to normal. Unfortunately, this all doesn't happen overnight, as
"they" would have you believe.
