Shrinking penis after surgery and radiation

NO doubt about that. I had radiation, and Eligard. Big time shrinkage!
It's become humorous in conversations with my buddies, but VERY
noticeable. Commenting on Ddun's post, the peeing is endless. For a dentist
appointment, I'll have to force myself into dehydration! Basically drink nothing
that morning. A royal pain.

I am 76 years of age and had 20 rounds of radiation this past December and January plus I am on 18 months of Zoladex. My penis have shrunk quite a bit and the first two shots of hormone shots I got before starting radiation castrated me and the urologist said that I would be finished with sex for life, his words, I just said at this stage as long as I am still 5’ - 10” a o e the grass it doesn’t matter, so the shrinkage isn’t a problem for me but my foreskin is gone wacky and I can’t pull it back anymore, anyone else with this problem?
I have a doctors appointment this week to see what can be done. Circumcision I guess is the next move. On the positive side when I went to the urologist I had psa of 63 and my last checkup about a month ago I was down to .01. Except for some fatigue I’m doing great.
