When Can I Have Sex After Undergoing TURP?

I had a TURP procedure 3 weeks ago. I'm 61 and have always enjoyed a healthy sex life beforehand. I wake with an erection sometimes in the mornings so all is well there. However I'm concerned about when I can begin to have sex again. Can you advise please..?

Hello
Thanks for query.
You have undergone TURP 3 weeks back and wish to start sex .
You can have sex keeping in mind that you will have orgasm but will not ejaculate outside .
During TURP bladder neck is resected along with prostate hence there will be retrograde ejaculation meaning there by that semen will enter in to bladder.
