I am scheduled for a 12 snip biopsy of my prostate since my PSA level was 7.
Basically being a gay man I am wondering if this will affect anal intercourse (safe only of course) after the biopsy and if so how long should I wait?
Thanks

Recovery from surgery usually takes anywhere from four to six weeks. I know it's a sensitive issue, but I think it would be a good idea to double check with your surgeon or physician just to ensure that you are being safe. I am sure that it's a little uncomfortable, but it's a good idea to check so that you don't hurt yourself. Doctors deal with a lot of different issues, so this shouldn't be a problem. If you are worried that your physician is homophobic, try looking in a local gay business directory to get a consult from a gay/gay-friendly physician. I hope this helps!
I found this at ***edited by moderator*** web addresses not allowed as shown below. It seems like a pretty good source of info. I am having the biopsy as well and had the same question.
"Urologists recommend that you use a condom for the first two weeks after the procedure when engaging in intercourse, and that you refrain from receiving anal sex for three weeks afterward to prevent infection at the biopsy site."

There are NO stupid questions, only Stupid People. Having just had my twelve snips 8hrs ago, I feel entitled to answer this question. Are you NUTS?!!! You have to wait 48hrs just to insure you don't run a life threatening fever/infection. Remember: 15 minutes of pleasure could mean 15 months wearing a Colostomy Bag!!! You should, at a bare minimum wait two weeks for vanella sex and a minim 6 weeks for Protected sex such astrip to the islands .....
I'm not in pain but my penis is so numb it felt like my arm is asleep.
Since every woman I have ever had sex with has put things up where the sun don't shine, now is the time to watch the sorrow &the Pity and read that book on the Armenian else Watutsi genicides. Or think Dead Nums/ Dead puppies !!! No sex means what it says--NO Sex!!!
I agree with PD completely. ^ As a bi male, I wouldn't recommend having sex before the biopsy either. I pray that you don't have cancer, but you don't want it to spread if you do. Just masturbate in the meantime if the doctor says it's ok. Or if you can't masturbate without anal stimulation, read a book or yell at some politicians. :)
what do you consider as "vanilla sex"?
