Patients were interviewed using the USSQ questionnaire in the fourth week after the placement of Double-J stent. Results: A total of 180 patients were included, male/female = 1.95.

Symptoms of urgency, incontinence, dysuria, and hematuria were reported by 91.1%, 45%, 53.9%, and 43.3%, respectively. Physical pain was experienced by 82.2% of patients. The percentage of patients who discontinued sexual activity and those who required assistance from healthcare professionals was 48.1% and 68.3%, respectively.
