After catheter removal

It's not uncommon. Over a period of a few days up to a few weeks, it will get better. How much are you leaking--that's really the more important question. Lots of guys would love to be able to control it well enough TO sit to pee.

Alan, do you know how to do a kegal exercise? Getting the muscle control and continence is the first task. Where are you located? Where did you have the surgery? What was your diagnosis? Have you gotten your pathology report after surgery yet, and what did it say?

Best of luck with your post-op path report, Alan! Surgery is a great choice when there are urinary symptoms, e.g. from BPH, along with the PCa.

Also having physical therapy with bio feedback is a must. It gives you a visual output that shows if you are doing Kegels properly. I had therapy for several sessions and I am very close to total continence, but more importantly, it teaches your body how to control your flow of urine. Continence is actually being able to tell your body, "not now, I don't need to go".

Almost 4 years out after surgery. I prefer to sit down.

I'm almost 15 weeks out from my RALP, and still leaking a bit, between .5 and 1.5 ounces per day. I am jealous of the people who stopped leaking sooner. My PT thinks part of my issue is that I am more active than his other clients. Until I had my RALP, I wasn't aware of how active I am. I've found that doing the kegel exercises while doing all sorts of random movements seems to help, like during planks, squats, lunges, twisting, reaching up, push-ups, etc. I'm cautiously optimistic I'll be dry in another week or two. One day, my PT used an ultrasound to look as some abdominal muscles, to see if I was flexing the right one (which apparently is connected to the sphincter that I am trying to activate), and that was really beneficial. If having trouble aiming while standing and peeing, you might use a urinary bottle (or other container). I find it useful in doing the standing stop/start drill. best wishes for a speedy recovery.
