Prostatectomy: How was your recovery process?

Hello everyone, how are you doing today?

Undergoing a prostatectomy (surgical removal of the prostate) is a major step in prostate cancer treatment, and recovery can look different for everyone. Some men bounce back quickly, while others face challenges like incontinence, fatigue, or sexual function changes.

How long did it take for you to start feeling “normal” again?

Did you experience any complications or unexpected challenges?

What helped you the most during your recovery, physiotherapy, lifestyle changes, or something else?
