Our team of highly skilled urologists is dedicated to providing personalized care, making Apollo Hospitals Lucknow one of the best hospitals for TURP Surgery in the region. 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 significant urinary issues due to an enlarged prostate. Symptoms may include frequent urination, difficulty starting or stopping urination, weak urine flow, and the sensation of incomplete bladder emptying. These symptoms can severely impact daily life and overall well-being.

The procedure involves the removal of excess prostate tissue, which relieves pressure on the urethra and improves urine flow. By addressing these symptoms, TURP surgery not only enhances urinary function but also significantly improves the quality of life for patients. At Apollo Hospitals Lucknow, we understand the importance of timely intervention and the role TURP plays in restoring normalcy to our patients' lives.

Risks of Delay

Delaying TURP surgery can lead to a range of complications that may worsen over time. As the prostate continues to enlarge, patients may experience increased urinary retention, recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder stones, or even kidney damage. These complications can lead to more complex medical issues, requiring additional treatments or surgeries.

At Apollo Hospitals Lucknow, we emphasize the urgency of addressing urinary symptoms promptly. Our expert team is committed to providing timely consultations and interventions, ensuring that patients receive the care they need before complications arise. Don’t wait for your symptoms to worsen; consult with us today to discuss your options.

1. Diagnostic Tests: You may undergo tests such as blood work, urinalysis, or imaging studies to assess your prostate health and overall condition.
