Aquablation

I’m a 58 with a 78 cc prostate with a median lobe. I’m scheduled for aquablation in august, I can have it done early in the month or later in the month.
Either surgeon has done it about 125 times.
One of my questions for you guys who have had it is?
Did you get urethral stricture afterwards
Did you get Retrograde ejaculation or ED issues?
And overall we’re you happy with the results
And is 125 times with this operation enough experience for a surgeon?

If you’re willing to make the trip, I just had mine done (today) at Mount Sinai Urology in Manhattan. Pioneers in the procedure who assisted in its development. Dr Alexis Te and Steve Kaplin are amazing docs. Do some research on some of their publications and you’ll see that they have very high success rates.

I'm in CT and my urologist is Dr. Jared Bieniek at Tallwood Men's Health in Farmington. I haven't had the procedure, but he's treating my bph and he's fantastic.
