96. New York David’s Struggles with Lack of Information on his Prostate Cancer Journey

Wednesday Aug 03, 2022

“There isn’t a whole lot of discussion about penile rehabilitation.” ~ David

Today, we talk with David, a listener from New York, he contacted us to share his story.

David was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and has undergone robotic radical prostatectomy. All the numbers after the surgery were good, even his continence.

What was difficult for David was what he was experiencing mentally in relation to his sexual function. Pre-surgery, sexual function effects were brought up. He even shared his intention of having sexual function as top priority over continence. However, that was shrugged off.

Now, David is honest about his struggles to understand what is happening, especially with his penile function. In his words, “the psychological effect of not being able to perform is weighing on his head”.

He has tried multiple ways to address this issue - from undergoing acupuncture, to taking medicines and to using injections. David refuses to give up.

One great thing that David shares is how his orgasms have changed! Orgasms for him now are much longer and stronger - it’s almost incredible, and enjoyable.
