What Are The Side Effects Of Turp Procedure?
I had a TURP procedure 4 months ago. Urine flow decreased a month or two late. I get up 4 to 5 times per night wanting to go to the toilet but urine flow is minimal and during the day difficult. Bladder feels full all the time. I am 86 5 ft 8, and 88 kilos and generally active and in good health.

Hello,
As per my surgical experience, the urine frequency after TURP surgery suggests a narrowing of the urethra. I strongly recommend a diagnostic cystoscopy for best evaluation and further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
