With a focus on patient trust and satisfaction, we invite you to explore how TURP can improve your quality of life.

Why TURP Surgery is Necessary

TURP surgery is often necessary for men experiencing moderate to severe urinary symptoms due to BPH. These symptoms may include frequent urination, difficulty starting or stopping urination, weak urine flow, and the sensation of incomplete bladder emptying. If left untreated, these symptoms can lead to complications such as urinary tract infections, bladder stones, and even kidney damage.

The procedure involves the removal of excess prostate tissue that is obstructing the urethra, thereby restoring normal urine flow. The benefits of TURP surgery extend beyond symptom relief; many patients report significant improvements in their overall quality of life. By addressing the root cause of urinary issues, TURP can help men regain their confidence and enjoy a more active lifestyle.

Risks of Delay

Delaying TURP surgery can have serious consequences. As BPH progresses, urinary symptoms may worsen, leading to increased discomfort and a higher risk of complications. Chronic urinary retention can result in bladder distension, which may cause permanent damage to the bladder muscles. Additionally, untreated BPH can lead to recurrent urinary tract infections, which can complicate treatment and recovery.

At Apollo Hospitals Indore, we understand the urgency of timely intervention.

Preparing for TURP surgery involves several important steps to ensure a smooth experience:

Preparation Tips:

• Preoperative Testing: You may undergo blood tests, imaging studies, or other evaluations to assess your overall health and suitability for surgery.

• Medication Management: Inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are taking. You may need to stop certain medications, such as blood thinners, before the procedure.

• Dietary Adjustments: Follow any dietary recommendations provided by your healthcare team, which may include fasting before surgery.

Recovery Tips:

• Follow Postoperative Instructions: Adhere to the guidelines provided by your surgeon regarding activity restrictions, medication, and follow-up appointments.

• Hydration: Drink plenty of fluids to help flush out the bladder and reduce the risk of infection.

• Rest: Allow your body time to heal by getting adequate rest and avoiding strenuous activities for a few weeks post-surgery.

• Monitor Symptoms: Keep an eye on any changes in your urinary patterns or any signs of complications, such as fever or excessive bleeding, and report them to your healthcare provider immediately.
