Hello - you are the first to mention "penile rehab." You say your incontinence was OK and restored fairly early. Was that due to what your term "penile rehab", or are you meaning "sexual/erectile" penile rehab? I am not aware that it exists. I went for 8 weeks of "Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy" (PFPT) to help with urinary incontinence, but the therapist did nothing for sexual erectile function. Literally up to the day before my surgery last April, as a 70 year old man, I was fully capable of sexual erectile function, but I have been "dead in the water" down there for 10 months now post-op. If there is a penile rehab therapy or program, please describe it in detail, including how soon after surgery you started that therapy...I want to know of the 15 months you were struggling with ED, how many months prior to the 15th month, you started your penile therapy (in other words: therapy was all 15 months, or just the last 3-4 months of that 15 month period?). Thank you in advance for your reply.
