No orgasm 10 years after radiation treatment: Anyone get it back?

I pity you who still think with your prick. If not for your treatment perhaps you would be facing a horrible and painful death. I lost my mojo at 59. But I can look back on all the crazy sex my wife and I enjoyed and rest on my laurels. Yes it would be nice to connect sexually but you can still love and caress and you aren’t dead.

@rooroo Amen to that brother.
@rooroo Sex after prostate cancer isn’t about “thinking with your prick.” It’s about a grieving process and having to relearn how to be intimate.
In my fumbling youth, I had to learn how to please a partner sexually, as well as myself. After a lot of trial and error, I found ways to do it that served me for 40 years.
Now, I've got to re-learn these things again as well as let go of the grief, anger and sadness because those emotions kill intimacy regardless of physical functioning or lack thereof.
I don't think there's a conflict between being grateful for being alive and also still wanting a sex life. It's possible, at the same time, to be grateful AND experience frustration while working through intimacy issues.
@rooroo Thanks for your generosity, I need some pity too! Thanks.

I'm sorry to learn of your stage 4 recurrence nine years into your PCa journey and appreciate the details shared in your bio for context.
What treatments have you chosen for the recurrence? Best wishes for a successful outcome!
