Listen to pcrich, his advice is good. I know I have to use sildenafil and the pump. My pump is a manually operated one and you can pump it up as hard as you want.

A little advice: When using the pump - be careful about the frequency and duration of pumping at each session as well as the amount of pressure. At one session, I enjoyed the hardness of my erection and kept it on a little longer than I should have. As a result, I had some extended swelling and redness afterwards. It's OK now.
When I got my pump, it came with a pamphlet (Penis Pumping 101) which I need to re-read. It discusses pumping like an exercise program to help with ED. It might be worth your effort to search ways to best utilize using a pump to help with ED post PCa. Hang in there

harvey44: What dose of sildenafil do you take, frequency, etc.? I have 20 mg tablets and try to take 1 tablet every 2 of days whether pumping or not.

I gave a quality pump from MenMD I also take a pill before use the pump
And I can get my sleeping 2” close to 6” but it’s never stiff or hard . I use a small ring but the couple times I’ve been able to to penetrate it’s still no pleasure felt and not hard
