Sex After Surgery: What can I expect?

I had nerve-sparing RP in January of this year. Before surgery, I had the very beginnings of ED - I could achieve an erection, I even had frequent spontaneous erections, but unless my penis was actively being stimulated one way or another, I had difficulty maintaining an erection.

After surgery…pretty much gone entirely, though I do feel rumblings down there occasionally, and I did manage about a 1/4 erection on its own, so hopefully, things improve a bit down the road.

In the meantime, I’m doing penile rehab via a pump and low-dose nightly Viagra.

@turtbean Have you talked about taking Cialis? It has a longer half life in the body and provides more consistent bloid flow.
