Ileal Conduit Discharge Duration Inquiry

This topic is about understanding how long penile discharge might last after having an ileal conduit surgery, which is a type of urinary stoma surgery. If you're experiencing this, here are some insights and advice from others who have been through it:

- Many people have reported that discharge can last for just a few days.
- It's also common for the discharge to continue for 2 to 4 weeks.
- Some have experienced mucus discharge for a couple of months, but their doctors assured them it was harmless.

If you notice that the discharge continues beyond 3 to 4 weeks or if it increases, it's a good idea to reach out to your surgeon or urologist to make sure everything is okay.

There are a few factors that might affect how long the discharge lasts, such as the removal of the post-operative drain, individual differences in how much fluid your body produces, and how quickly your body reabsorbs these fluids.

Generally, mild mucus or fluid discharge is expected after this type of surgery. However, it's important to keep an eye on it and consult with a healthcare professional if the symptoms persist.
