I had HOLEP in Dec 2024. Still leaking and wearing pads. I wore diapers for 6 months. I have the same issue as you do. I get hard, but not hard enough for sex. It is very frustrating for sure. My doctor gave me a prescription for Sildenafil and to take one 100mg tablet every other day to see if it will work. I have not been able to do this due to other medical issues. I plan to start next week and to see if taking Sildenafil every other day will have any affect on maintaining an erection.

When I first started having to "need a little help" back about 25 years ago, my Dr. put my on Viagra. It kinda worked but not to the effect that I expected - even after using up my prescription, which took a couple months. I told my Dr. about it and he switched me to 10mg of Cialis, which worked great! I've been using Cialis - generic now - for over 20 years and weekly. It's rarely failed!
However, per my story, I'm again having difficulty and have laid off the new KTM-66 supplement to see if that, in fact, has been counterproductive. It's been a week and I plan to go another week to be sure it's out of my system before trying sex again.
Thankfully I have a VERY understanding wife and we talk about sex fairly often so we can help each other.
We are both getting older as well - I'm soon to be 72 and she's 68, so that is playing a part as well. Stopping our previous "scheduled" encounters is helping as well and she's always ready whenever I'm feeling the desire...we'll see what happens over the next few weeks.
You might ask your Dr. about switching to Cialis. It's effective for a good 12 hours or more, depending on your age. I know foreplay is a big factor, something MY wife isn't so much into but she enjoys it when done on her...go figure!
