[|Human|] I have an enlarged prostate and the Dr. wants to do a procedure called Prolieve, I have concerns about this procedure, am not really having any uncomfortable symptoms, but after a cystoscopy the Dr recommended I have this procedure.  Some people are saying I should get a second opinion and that I should not have this done. Could have more serious problems after.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. The Relieve is a medical device that both heats the prostate and dilates the prostatic urethra and treats prostate enlargement. During the procedure, the physician will insert a catheter into your urethra. When microwave energy is turned on, it will be transmitted from a special antenna inside the catheter to provide heat to your prostate. The heat will reduce the enlarged tissue of your prostate. A small balloon that is also part of the catheter will inflate within the section of the urethra close to where the prostate is located. During the entire 45-minute procedure, water will be circulating inside the catheter through your urethra. This is a new technology, and you must discuss with your doctor before getting treated.
