If you're having issues your erection, don't just accept it and above all don't be shy. Speak with your specialist nurse and they will look to find a treatment that works for you. They did for me!
Having been diagnosed with cancer and then being treated there's always a low level concern that it might come back. The two biggest concerns were erectile dysfunction and loss of bladder control. I've work hard on both of these symptoms with help from my specialist nurse. Pelvic floor exercises are a must to prevent leakage and make sure you start them before you have your treatment for a better outcome. With regards to erectile dysfunction there are a number of treatment available, if one doesn't work don't give up, try another.
Not sure
Even though I had my treatment less than 3 years ago, advances in the range of treatments have been made. Make sure you consider all treatments that are available to your condition, even if they aren't at you local hospital.
