When you first started using a pump did you have the issues that I have , I can get it to a good girth and length but not stiff, maybe it’s because despite surgery and radiation I’m not yet done with hormone therapy , one more shot soon but it lasts for 3 months or more maybe I’m wasting my time until that’s over ? My high testosterone level is gone with these shots and I was use to great sex several times a week, can’t believe I could ever survive 6 months with no sex

I think the ADT has a lot to do with it. I’ve been pretty much impotent for 6 yrs and like you, got no satisfaction from the pump; pills didn’t work and I was about to try Trimix when the cancer recurred.
So the Orgovyx wiped out any desire on my part to even try; but weirdly, after being off of it for one month I am starting to actually get involuntary (nocturnal) erections unrelated to having to urinate.
Don’t know if this is a harbinger of better days or simply a rebound effect from ADT.
In any case, I would not gauge your success or failure to achieve an erection so long as you’re on ADT. It’s probably better to just wait til you’re completely done and then go for it.
But DO continue daily Cialis - very important for blood flow!
