Sling (or other treatment/prodedure) for climaturia following RP
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: Feb 5 7:20am | Replies (5)Comment receiving replies
The prostate cancer and the treatments/SEs really screwed up what was a great sex life. I've gone through the phases and I'm pretty much at acceptance.
I have some residual stress incontinence and wear a light pad all of the time. I was almost completely continent about a year after my RP but started leaking again after 37 pelvic radiation treatments for recurrent disease. It's manageable.
I very much doubt I would ever have any invasive procedure for incontinence/climacturia. In the big scheme, it's not that big a deal. Not interested in the risks and I've had my fill of surgery and procedures to last a lifetime (whatever is left!).

Boy, we’re both charter members of the formerly robust sex life club…it really does suck!
I looked into all kinds of procedures for pumps, internal prostheses, etc. and when I thought about all this hydraulic hardware that they proposed putting in these already surgically ravaged areas I put that thought quickly out of my mind. I, like you, want no more surgery if I can avoid it.
Just finished my 25 salvage tx plus 6 mos ADT so waiting for all that to wear off. If the out of the blue sexual fantasies ever return to my neutered being I might give Trimix a shot (har har), but if not I will continue, like you, on the road of acceptance and just be glad I am still alive. Peace, Doc…,
