ED Recovery -- Are there signs to look for?
Really, it's a two part question: (1) For those of you who had a radical
prostatectomy
, how many have recovered to where an erection capable of penetration without pills, needles, implants, etc has occurred?

My experience with prostate cancer
I was extremely grateful for a discussion of my MRI scan with the oncologist, who answered all my questions about the alternative treatments ( hormone and radiotherapy versus
prostatectomy
).

Clinical Trial Trials
I was looking over his report from February, 2019 and saw the following at the top "CLINICAL INDICATION: Prostate cancer status post radical
prostatectomy
, radiotherapy and LHRH therapy. Now with increasing PSA." This prompted me to start looking back over previous reports.

New to this ‘stage’
My dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2010 (Gleason 7) and following a radical
prostatectomy
has had no further treatment due to stable PSA readings. A rise in his PSA prompted a PSMA PET scan in August which came back clear.

Revisiting a Question on Tx
My
prostatectomy
was in November. The pathology on my prostate said it was negative to cancer in the lymph nodes and margins and expected a clean psa. In January, my PSA was 0.06, in Feb it was 0.09. I have another psa at the end of this week.

Chemotherapy with ADT & Radiotherapy for Localized High-Risk PCa.
plus adjuvant CT with six cycles of docetaxel chemotherapy versus radical
prostatectomy
alone.22 The discordance in results between RTOG 0521, which showed benefits in OS, DM, and DFS, and GETUG-12, SPCG-13, and SPCG-12 may stem from differences in patient populations among the studies.

Post robotic surgery leakage and remedies
I had a robotic
prostatectomy
years ago. My erections vary but I can still get hard to some degree. Viagra helps. The biggest problem that I have is leakage during erections and orgasm. It is embarrassing and now lives rent free In my head a good deal of the time. It has really stressed me out.

How I got to "undetectable" PSA
The reason my radiation was originally delayed somewhat was because of incontinence, which was a real problem for months after surgery (the surgeon who performed the
prostatectomy
said that the location of the tumors made it trickier than usual to reconnect the urethra).

Newbie to the site
Had a retropubic
prostatectomy
in 2015 pT3b M1 N0 Gleason 4+3=7, now have a permanent supra-pubic catheter. I am currently in watchful waiting mode with a PSA of 8.23 and rising. My focus is on quality of life, rather than longevity. Anyone else here with a similar story, or goal?
