First of all welcome to the forum and the club no one wants to join. You’re going to be alright and we’re here for you.

I had surgery mid January 2024. Sex is a work in progress for me but I’ll share a few comments based on my experience. Get busy as soon as you feel well enough. Be patient and kind to yourself if things take a while. It probably will but the destination is worth the journey.

Climax feels different and without seminal vesicles you will no longer ejaculate so there is no “build up” and “release” and some describe it as a “dry”:orgasm. On the positive side it’s less messy and I’ll leave figuring out the advantages of that to you. Some men say it’s less intense. Some say it’s more intense. Your mileage may vary.

What’s your Gleason score?

Thanks... my Gleason score is 7 (3+4). With moderate aggressive cancer in multiple areas of the prostate. So focal treatment wasn't an option. Going with surgery because risk of reoccurrence down the road.
