How effective is bph surgery and dealing with urination problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TURP: Surgery by way of turp, photo vaporization of the prostate or plasma vaporization of the prostate, is the most effective way to improve BPH related luts(lower urinary tract symptoms). It results in outcomes far superior to, and more durable than minimally invasive options or medical therapy.
