Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia may decrease erectile capacity. Retrograde ejaculation is common after TURP, impacting sexual satisfaction for some men and their partners.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Sexual Medicine
  • Surgical Outcomes

Context:

  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) affects many men.
  • Surgical interventions like transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) are common treatments.
  • Understanding the impact of TURP on sexual function is crucial for patient counseling.

Purpose:

  • To prospectively evaluate the effects of TURP on sexual function.
  • To assess changes in erectile capacity and ejaculation patterns post-surgery.

Summary:

  • A prospective trial assessed 46 sexually active men undergoing TURP for BPH.
  • Sexual function was measured using the Golombok Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS).
  • A significant decrease in erectile capacity was observed 6 months post-TURP, though only 2 men became fully impotent. Retrograde ejaculation occurred in 41 men, affecting satisfaction in 16 men and 9 partners.

Impact:

  • Highlights potential sexual side effects of TURP, including erectile dysfunction and retrograde ejaculation.
  • Informs patient expectations and counseling regarding sexual health after BPH surgery.
  • Suggests a need for further investigation into managing sexual dysfunction post-TURP.
