Erection

[Crusoe1]

Hello all,

My erections has never returned since having my prostate perineal cancer surgery in 2019.

Any advice from the forum would be greatly appreciated.

Did your drx tell you if they spared nerves or not? I'd start there so at least you know the probability of it ever occurring naturally. I think the latest I've read is 36 months. Next step is trimix. Did you do any type of rehab early on? Pump? ED meds? Do you get any type of erection at night?

go to a Urologist who takes care of ED - if you are able - I suggest the sooner, the better.

A knowledgeable DR has many tools at their disposal

Does Tri-mix work for you?

[Godfather2]

Tri-mix does the trick.

Agree with suggestions above. Although I was taking Lupron at the time and had ZERO interest in sex, the study I was in recommended 60 mg of Sildenafil 3 times/wk and the use of a penis pump to keep and get the blood flowing. It seemed to help and seemed to lessen genital shrinkage - another wonderful side effect of treatments.

Keep UP the good work!

60 mg at one time?

[EdinBmore in reply to Smallfall]

Yes. The only side effects I had were flush face and fatigue/drowsiness. I do not know of any research that has compared dosages and their impact upon resumed erectile function. Lots of variables involved. That being said, it seems that many urologists recommend ED meds post treatment.

i would go talk to your urologist. There are things that can be done.
