Pre-op prostatectomy advice

How can I best prepare pre-op for my prostatectomy surgery?

It is ideal to begin training 4-6 weeks prior to surgery to increase the changes of a speedy recovery post-op after having a prostatectomy.

Bladder training

  • No just in case visits to the toilet
  • Learn to recognise a legitimate need to empty your bladder as opposed to a false alarm and regain control over when your bladder empties through urgency strategies (Discussed in “Bladder Training”)
  • Reduce bladder irritants such as alcohol, tea, coffee and soft drinks
  • Begin with pelvic floor and core exercises (discussed in Level 1 and 2)
  • Ensure good healthy diet
  • Ensure good quality sleep
  • Get active

Ensure good erectile function pre-operatively – research has indicated a correlation between good pre-operative erectile function and satisfaction with post-operative erectile
