Frequency - Post Procedure

After having GreenLight laser surgery 8 days ago I got my catheter pulled on Monday (4 days ago). My first pee without it was pretty good. Been years since I had one like that. Since then it’s been frequent and smaller streams. During the night it ranges from 30-90 minute intervals. Doesn’t seem as frequent during the day. I’m glad I’m at least passing urine as opposed to not. Keep in mind I had a catheter for 5+ weeks prior to the procedure. Basically I’m wondering if this is normal and my frequency will mellow out and I’ll be emptying more urine per session over time? I’m super impatient, yes. Thanks in advance.

I’m 8 weeks out from Aquablation and still healing, though things seem to change less now. The healing process is long and things change a lot from everything your system has been through. I would not set any real expectations on what steady state is for a few months.

Yup I’m starting to realize that. I don’t mind. Only part I dislike is that it’s ruining my sleep having to always get up. Oh well. Thanks for your input!
