Thank you for your kind and well thought out response. You understand what it’s like to suddenly have your sex life end and have an organ “down sized”. As silly as it seems I’m grieving my loss.
I keep hoping it may come back but deep inside I fear it won’t! As you mentioned your “ group” you could most likely answer a question I have been wondering about but haven’t had the nerve to ask about…Anal sex… is that still an option after healing? It would seem with no prostate it would be. I’m just learning my way around my new life and its options.
Thank you for understanding!

|Anal sex… is that still an option after healing?

@billybwbf2 I asked the doctor about this and was told a minimum of three months after surgery or radiation, six months if better. Go slow and try a small toy first with LOTS of lube, if it hurts then wait longer.
