BPH is a condition that causes the prostate gland to enlarge. If left untreated, it can lead to complications such as difficulty urinating, urinary tract infections (UTIs), bladder stones, bladder damage, and even kidney damage. To address this condition, doctors may recommend the REZUM water vapor technology.

What is REZUM Water Vapor Technology?
REZUM is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to treat BPH. It offers long-term improvements for patients dealing with prostate enlargement.
Before the procedure begins, the doctor will administer regional anesthesia to ensure the patient feels comfortable. Once the anesthesia takes effect, a urologist will insert a long, thin-tipped handheld device into the patient’s urethra. A small needle is then released from the tip of the device to deliver water vapor directly to the enlarged prostate tissue.
The heat from the vapor destroys excess prostate cells, causing the enlarged area to shrink.
Advantages of REZUM Water Vapor Technology
Compared to other BPH treatments, REZUM technology offers several significant benefits for patients, such as:
- Eliminates the need for long-term medication
- Short procedure duration (10–30 minutes)
- Symptom relief can be felt within just a few weeks
- Does not affect male sexual function, such as erection and ejaculation
- Can be performed as an outpatient procedure (patients can go home the same day)
- Does not require general anesthesia
- Quick recovery time
- The procedure can be repeated if symptoms recur
