Storage LUTS post AEEP
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of daily tadalafil 5 mg on storage lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) during the early postoperative period following Anatomical endoscopic enucleation of prostate in a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Interventions
Tadalafil 5 mg is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor taken orally, commonly prescribed as a once-daily low dose therapy. It works by relaxing smooth muscle and improving blood flow in specific tissues.
Giving omiga 3 for patients who are not in tadalafil group

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of patients achieving stress urine incontinence at 12 weeks post op, assessed by IPSS score | 12 weeks | More Precise Academic Wording: * Proportion of patients: The percentage (%) of the total study population. * Stress urinary incontinence (SUI): Involuntary leakage of urine during activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure (e.g., coughing, sneezing, lifting). * 12 weeks post-operative: Three months after surgery. * Assessed by IPSS score: Evaluation based on patient responses to the International Prostate Symptom Score questionnaire. Important Methodological Note: The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is primarily designed to assess lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) such as: * Frequency * Urgency * Weak stream * Nocturia |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Change from baseline in IPSS storage subdomain score at 4 weeks , 8weeks , and 12 weeks. Time to micturate freely IPSS total . | 12 weeks |
