My concern is that my girlfriend (GF) and I started exploring prostate stimulation and prostate orgasm (just a few times so far and one - maybe - success at p-gasm). I was wondering if a p-gasm will be totally impossible if I get a prostatectomy for my cancer.
Sorry for your PCa situation, but save the prostate if possible (i.e. if you have a less-aggressive cancer). Without a prostate it is highly unlikely that you will have any enjoyable stimulation from where the prostate used to be. And of course, you will no longer be able to ejaculate. Orgasms are still possible, and quite enjoyable, but a bit different from the normal male orgasm/ejaculation. I'm currently only able to achieve an orgasm while flaccid, using a vibrator (I guess that more aggressive, deep stimulation is required). I'm hoping that my penile sensation will return enough that someday I will be able to have an orgasm while erect (thanks to injections), and be able to orgasm along with my wife during PIV sex.
I just got results from a PSMA-PET scan. The cancer is confined to the prostate gland and seminal vesicles with some nerve involvement. Nothing outsitde the prostate is apparant. But the cancer is fairly extensive on both sides and the apex of the gland.
Right now, it (in my uneducated view) looks as if 100% cure might be possible with prostatectomy. It would be nice to be relieved of having this hanging over my head for the next 25 years (if I might live that long). On the other hand, the concerns you mention are dear to me, also.
Thank you, still_crazy
Reading your posts, I thought you already had PC. Your PC diagnosis sounds like what I had( what was your score? 3+4? ). My surgeon at a very respected cancer hospital said I may need Cialis to get an erection and there may be urine leakage. Then he rips everything but the kitchen sink out. ALL MY NERVES GONE! Total ed total incontinence. You have the erection problem solved IF they dont screw it up. Six years later I am getting minor sponginaous filling. Had chubby feeling this morning. It was very nice feeling. Be sure your PC surgeon knows what he is doing with respect to your implant. Very few surgeons have expertise in both areas. Heal well my friend.
