Brief Answer:
The night before

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You can start enema one night before the actual date of prostate biopsy. Many a time we did not give enema and we were doing fine with the patient but as a process enema is given the night before or 12 hours before the scheduled time.

Hope this answers.
