Wrap that rascal - in stamps!

[FCoffey]

Impotence is a common effect of many prostate cancer treatments. Sometimes it is caused by physical issues, such as nerve damage during RP or the effects of castration. But prostate cancer also causes severe psychological stress, which can also cause impotence.

A cautious doctor might order an expensive and invasive test that uses an instrument to record penis girth throughout the night. Physically healthy men get nocturnal erections. The blood flow provides oxygen and nutrition to the organ.

Now researchers have demonstrated a much simpler way to find out if the problem is physical or psychological. They wrap the penis in a circle of postage stamps before bedtime. Upon wakening, if the circle is broken, there was at least one nocturnal erection.

Here's the PubMed link:

FCoffey,...… I think this is a great idea. As a retired US Postal Employee I think EVERY man ought to wrap his penis in stamps every night for the rest of our lives. Not necessarily to check for impotence but to help my retirement! Sorry guys, couldn't help it, just being silly. Have a good day!

There’s a joke in here about licking the stamps, but I am struggling to come up with it.

Convince your wife to lick you until it is nice and soft, then apply the stamps.
