What are the odds of urinary retention taking bicalutimide right after green light surgery?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Low.: Bicalutimide, or casodex, (bicalutamide) should have minimal effect on your chance of urinary retention. Retention is much more likely to be influenced by the degree of urinary obstruction preoperatively, and the degree of inflammation, swelling, bleeding, and scaring after greenlight photovaporization (pvp) of the prostate. Hopefully, the procedure with help prevent this from happening.

None: Bicalutamide does not cause urinary retention. It sounds like you are in good hands.Best wishes.
