“…Another form of laser ablation of the prostate was associated with less common adverse effect on ejaculation. Retrograde ejaculation was reported in 12% of sexually active men following Nd:YAG visual laser ablation of the prostate [Sengör et al 2002]. In a prospective study comparing Nd:YAG laser prostatectomy with transurethral electrovaporization of the prostate, retrograde ejaculation was more common following electrovaporization (63%) than with laser therapy (18%).…”
