urethra

Hello. I have found something a bit weird since my TAH. I hope it's not too rude to talk about, but my urine stream used to be straight, and since the op, when I wee, it sort of goes off to the side and dribbles all over. Did anyone else find this happening to them? I'm hoping it's just due to swelling of the urethra.

Funny you should bring this up for I too found my stream wasn't what it used to be. I had the burch procedure done so I chalked it up to that. Now that I am futher along I seem to be urinating a little straighter so I think it was do to swelling.

phewww. Thank you for that. I was beginning to think I was a mutant. It does seem to be improving for me some of the time, so def must be swelling. It's also not so stoppy-starty all the time now. Day 12 for me.

I can't say I'm "urinating straight" anymore, but since I sit down, it's really not a problem! ;-> My main concern was possible incontinence, which has turned out to be a non-issue.

I noticed that too! It kinda dribbled out every direction. Eventually it did return to normal. But I was worried for awhile....lol

I have the same thing going on and also had a Burch. It's gotten a little better but all over the place and I have to concentrate to make sure I fully voided.
