suggest a book/information about sexual health after prostatectomy?
Hi,
I am almost to month 5 in my recovery, and able - with a penis pump and a couple of 5 mg tedafil pills - to get an erection that is firm enough for sex. My "care team" is telling me that it is early on, and time itself will be the biggest healer from here on out, but I want to be very proactive and approach this correctly. Can any recommend a book about recovering sexual health after a prostatectomy?
I am tired of wading through Youtube videos that offer nothing more than clickbait thumbnails or titles. Hopefully there is some book, blog, or specialist out there that can give me more than doing kegels and increasing my sexual activities. I am not expecting a magic bullet, but I want something that speaks to those who are ready to take X steps to recover their previous sexual health. Thanks!

This is not clickbait or just titles —> This 2023 presentation out of Stanford University might provide you some ideas to discuss with your medical team —> “Penile Rehab: Optimizing Recovery of Erectile Function after Prostate Cancer Treatment” —> https://youtu.be/aRp1NXjPGLE?si=VyF2ALSgU1J5r4OI
They talk about a variety of remedies and explain them quite well.
Good luck.
