I had a robot assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) at the age of 70 two years ago. Related inguinal hernia repair one year ago. Male urinary sling implanted one month ago. The RALP surgery supposedly was nerve sparing, but no natural erections have occurred since. Doctor says I am likely as healed as I will ever be, but I hope he's wrong. I have used a VED for penile rehab since the surgery and now use Trimix with success. The incontinence struggle lasted two years, with stress incontinence being the only leakage and then only during high times of exercise like pickleball and swinging a golf club and trail hiking. The sling has resolved that thankfully, but I am still only one month post-surgery and haven't done anything highly physical yet.

The Mayo clinic site has become too technical, FrankTalk is too implant-oriented, and NAFC has become too restrictive to follow, so I am hoping that this site is easy to use and informative. I will have questions to ask, and anecdotes to share when asked.

I wish you the best. One question: so how long have you actually been using Trimix injections? And how often (e.g., once/week etc.)?

I'm asking because of anecdotal stories I've gotten from other men I know post-RP whose use of those injections caused them significant scar tissue, resulting in Peyronie's Disease, and they then had to stop using & were worse off than before.

Long story. I used Trimix for several years maybe twice a month before my cancer was found. It always worked great making me feel 22 years old again. We traded away impromptu for planned sex but were happy. After my RALP, my wife had no interest in me leaking urine into her (climacturia) so we have gone two years without intercourse. Masturbation after a vacuum device erection is all I’ve experienced. Now that I’m no longer leaking I have to order new Trimix and get back in the saddle again.
