My dad has borderline prostatomegaly his ultrasound showed an enlarged prostate at 31x38x34 mm with a volume of 224cc but no focal lesions. He had TURP surgery back in 2009. Is TURP needed again or are there other treatment options we should consider?

For a case of borderline prostatomegaly, with a prostate volume of 224cc and a prior TURP, a repeat TURP may not be the first course of action. Other treatment options, like watchful waiting, medications, or even a different surgical procedure, should be considered. The best approach depends on the severity of symptoms and other factors

Question

I'm really worried because after ejaculation, I feel incredibly weak. It's like all my energy is drained, and sometimes my left hand or foot gets really shaky or weak. I often get headaches and everything seems blurry. I've noticed this issue even though I don't have sex, and the idea of having sex makes me feel like it would be way worse. I'm genuinely scared about this, especially since I'm not married yet and it makes me scared of relationships. I've stopped masturbating because I'm terrified, and it's starting to affect my work too. There's this constant feeling that I'm losing my core strength or life force with each ejaculation, and it feels like I'm heading towards a collapse or even death. I've been to doctors and had MRI, brain tests, and all basic checks done, and they say everything's normal, but I still feel really weak. Do you have any idea what's going on or any advice on what I could do?
