Hi @tuxceda21, I moved your question about penile implants and orgasm to this existing discussion:

I did this so you can connect with other men with prostate cancer who have had a penile implant.

A penile implant shouldn't affect your ability to ejaculate and orgasm. It may take you a few weeks or even a couple of months to adjust. Have you discussed the loss of orgasm with the surgeon?

I should start at the beginning: Radical Prostatectomy Jan 2018 at the age of 69. Positive margins on examination, rising PSA. 33 shots of external beam radiation at 2 grey each in August and Sept 2018. PSA was now undetectable. Used Vacuum device, trimix injections but not happy with results though orgasm was present (dry).
Had penile implants (AMS 700) in Oct 2020. This was the best solution I tried and had satisfactory orgasm. In the last year the orgasm response has weakened to the point of being nonexistent. Does anyone have a comment or suggestion?
