https://sperlingprostatecenter.com/f...perplasia-bph/ TURP has other risks besides retrograde ejaculation. If nerve damage occurs it can cause incontinence and erectile dysfunction as well.

Re: Dry ejaculation
Sorry to hear that. I have a couple of friends who have gone through TURP and both now have retrograde ejaculation but no incontinence and still having sex with no issues.
If you're going to have it done make sure you have the best surgeon that you can afford do the procedure. The outcome depends a lot on the skill of the surgeon in avoiding nerve damage.

However there is absolutely no harm in trying it out to see whether it works for you. If it does then you don't need to subject yourself to the risks that TURP entails.

Re: Dry ejaculation
In this case in my personal opinion the cure sounds worse than the problem

Re: Dry ejaculation
An enlarged prostate (BPH) can make life pretty miserable. It's impossible to get a good night's sleep because you have to wake up to pee every couple of hours.

Sometimes there are new procedures that are on the cusp of being approved so waiting can be beneficial. There are already numerous options available besides surgery. https://www.healthline.com/health/en...-prostatectomy BPH treatment options Don’t resign yourself to living with BPH. Addressing your symptoms now can help you avoid problems later. Untreated BPH may lead to urinary tract infections, acute urinary retention (you can’t go at all), and kidney and bladder stones. In severe cases it can lead to kidney damage. Treatment options include medications and surgery. You and your doctor will consider several factors when you evaluate these choices. These factors include: how much your symptoms interfere with your life the size of your prostate your age your overall health any other medical conditions Alpha blockers for BPH This class of medications works by relaxing the bladder neck muscles and the muscle fibers in the prostate. The muscle relaxation makes it easier to urinate. You can expect an increase in urine flow and a less frequent need to urinate within a day or two if you take an alpha blocker for BPH. Alpha blockers include:
5-alpha reductase inhibitors for BPH This type of medication reduces the size of the prostate gland by blocking hormones that spur the growth of your prostate gland. Dutasteride (Avodart) and finasteride (Proscar) are two types of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. You’ll generally have to wait three to six months for symptom relief with 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. Medication combo Taking a combination of an alpha blocker and a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor provides greater symptom relief than taking either one of these drugs alone, according to an article in Current Drug TargetsTrusted Source. Combination therapy is often recommended when an alpha blocker or 5-alpha reductase inhibitor isn’t working on its own. Common combinations that doctors prescribe are finasteride and doxazosin or dutasteride and tamsulosin (Jalyn). The dutasteride and tamsulosin combination comes as two drugs combined into a single tablet. Stand the heat There are minimally invasive surgery options when drug therapy isn’t enough to relieve BPH symptoms. These procedures include transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT). Microwaves destroy prostate tissue with heat during this outpatient procedure. TUMT will not cure BPH. The procedure does cut down urinary frequency, makes it easier to urinate, and reduces weak flow. It doesn’t solve the problem of incomplete emptying of the bladder. TUNA treatment TUNA stands for transurethral needle ablation. High-frequency radio waves, delivered through twin needles, burn a specific region of the prostate in this procedure. TUNA results in better urine flow and relieves BPH symptoms with fewer complications than invasive surgery. This outpatient procedure can cause a burning sensation. The sensation can be managed by using an anesthetic to block the nerves in and around the prostate. Getting in hot water Hot water is delivered through a catheter to a treatment balloon that sits in the center of the prostate in water-induced thermotherapy. This computer-controlled procedure heats a defined area of the prostate while neighboring tissues are protected. The heat destroys the problematic tissue. The tissue is then either excreted through urine or reabsorbed in the body. Surgical choices Invasive surgery for BPH includes transurethral surgery, which doesn’t require open surgery or an external incision. According to the National Institutes of Health, transurethral resection of the prostate is the first choice of surgeries for BPH. The surgeon removes prostate tissue obstructing the urethra using a resectoscope inserted through the penis during TURP. Another method is transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP). During TUIP, the surgeon makes incisions in the neck of the bladder and in the prostate. This serves to widen the urethra and increase urine flow. Laser surgery Laser surgery for BPH involves inserting a scope through the penis tip into the urethra. A laser passed through the scope removes prostate tissue by ablation (melting) or enucleation (cutting). The laser melts excess prostate tissue in photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP). Holmium laser ablation of the prostate (HoLAP) is similar, but a different type of laser is used. The surgeon uses two instruments for Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP): a laser to cut and remove excess tissue and a morcellator to slice extra tissue into small segments that are removed. Open simple prostatectomy Open surgery may be required in complicated cases of a very enlarged prostate, bladder damage, or other problems. In open simple prostatectomy, the surgeon makes an incision below the navel or several small incisions in the abdomen via laparoscopy. Unlike prostatectomy for prostate cancer when the entire prostate gland is removed, in open simple prostatectomy the surgeon removes only the portion of the prostate blocking urine flow. Self-care may help Not all men with BPH need medication or surgery. These steps may help you manage mild symptoms:
Talk with your doctor about the treatment approach that best suits your needs.
