PAE has been around for a while. I think the first guy was in Brazil, but I may be mistaken.
Currently it is a standard treatment and covered by most insurance.
I was scheduled for aquablation until I did a deep dive into the procedure. There is a lot of misleading marketing out there for all the MISTs.
I considered all available options, and for me, PAE offered the best risk/reward equation.
If you are older, not sexually active and not working, there are other options that are “one-and-done” that may be better.
If not a urologist, who does the procedure? Vascular surgeon?
