Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Daily tadalafil 5 mg user
Patients will have daily tadalafil 5 mg for 3 months post AEEP
Tadalafil 5 mg is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor taken orally, commonly prescribed as a once-daily low dose therapy. It works by relaxing smooth muscle and improving blood flow in specific tissues.
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Omiga 3 for patient
Giving omiga 3 for patients who are not in tadalafil group

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of patients achieving stress urine incontinence at 12 weeks post op, assessed by IPSS score
Time Frame: 12 weeks

More Precise Academic Wording:

  • Proportion of patients: The percentage (%) of the total study population.
  • Stress urinary incontinence (SUI): Involuntary leakage of urine during activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure (e.g., coughing, sneezing, lifting).
  • 12 weeks post-operative: Three months after surgery.
  • Assessed by IPSS score: Evaluation based on patient responses to the International Prostate Symptom Score questionnaire.

Important Methodological Note:

The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is primarily designed to assess lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) such as:

  • Frequency
  • Urgency
  • Weak stream
  • Nocturia
12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Change from baseline in IPSS storage subdomain score at 4 weeks , 8weeks , and 12 weeks. Time to micturate freely IPSS total .
Time Frame: 12 weeks
