REZUM \u2013 a New Treatment Option for Men with Enlarged Prostate Caused by BPH<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"REZUM is a new procedure that offers numerous advantages<\/strong> to many men with BPH symptoms. <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The procedure is quick<\/strong> (<15 minutes)<\/li>\n
  2. REZUM can be performed under local anesthesia<\/strong> (no need for general anesthesia)<\/li>\n
  3. No need for taking daily pills enlarged prostate. Most men are able to stop medications<\/strong> such as Flomax, Rapaflo, finasteride, and Uroxatral.<\/li>\n
  4. No sexual side effects: No erection problems<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. The majority of men report no ejaculation problems<\/strong> after REZUM<\/li>\n
  6. Ability to have other procedures for Enlarged prostate if REZUM does not provide sufficient benefit. No \u2018treatment\u2019 bridges are cut<\/strong> even though prostatic tissue is partially destroyed by REZUM.<\/li>\n
  7. More effective than medications<\/strong> (Uroxatral (alfuzosin), tarazosin, doxazosin, tamsulosin (Flomax).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How Long do the Benefits of Rezum Last?<\/h2>\n

    \"\"For most men, the Rezum procedure improves their urinary function<\/strong> and the benefit tends to be stable for at least 4-5 years.  If symptoms worsen, retreatment with Rezum, Urolift for BPH procedure<\/a>, or laser enucleation of the prostate<\/a> can be considered.<\/p>\n

    Typically within 1-2 months after the Rezum procedure men experience improved urine stream, less frequent urination, less urge to urinate, and need to wake up fewer times at night to urinate.<\/p>\n

    Which You Need to Know About REZUM Procedure<\/h2>\n

    The REZUM procedure can be helpful to many men who experienced symptoms of an enlarged prostate<\/a><\/strong> such as slow urine stream, frequent urination, and urge to pee.  While the advantages of the REZUM procedure listed above a clear-cut, it is important to understand that it may take 1-2 months for men to experience benefits from REZUM for the BPH procedure<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

    Many men are impatient, which is understandable, and worry that their symptoms have not improved 3, 5, and 15 days after the procedure.  This is not unexpected.  I advised my patients to be patient and let the procedure do its work<\/strong>.  Typically, 1-2 months after the procedure most men experience sufficient benefit.  Maximal benefit is achieved about 3 months after the procedure.<\/p>\n
