Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Cancer is a condition when there is uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal cells any where in the body. In prostate cancer there is proliferation of cancerous cells from the prostate gland. It is important to know the stage of cancer you are having and any infiltration of the cancer to the adjacent organs.

Any approach to the prostate during TURP is from the urethra which is the urinary passage connecting the urinary bladder to the outside. The urethra is a delicate tube and it is possible to have it damaged during surgery and investigations. The bleeding you experienced can be from an injury to the urethra. It is also probable that there is recurrent cancer and infiltration of the urethra after your surgery. In this situation please consult your doctor immediately and get investigated and treated if the bleeding continues. Please do not worry.
