Life After Prostate Surgery

About 6 weeks ago, I had a DaVinci procedure to remove my prostate. My PSA numbers were climbing year-over-year, so my doctor referred me to a urologist. After an MRI and biopsy, it was determined I was a candidate for surgery. Pretty straightforward surgery with the robot-assisted procedure. First three days at home were really bad, lots of pain, but it soon resolved. The catheter was a royal discomfort. 

My dream of exposing myself came true. I showed my junk to so many men and women in the course of the treatment that I can check that off my bucket list. Fortunately, no one laughed at my pitiful penis. One nurse smiled and tried to comfort me by saying, "Don't worry, I've seen smaller."

The surgeon prescribed Viagra for me. Luckily, he could save the nerve bundle that fires erections. He wanted me to try to get erections. So, basically, I got a directive to jerk off. 

I get erections but they are not as firm as before. And my penis seems to have shrunk. Like I needed that! He told me it was not from the surgery but from lack of erections and again recommended the Viagra and a penis pump. 

Well, that's a strange experience. My wife has been great about it, encouraging me to use it daily. It seems to give me girth, but not really length. I went to my local sex shop and talked to a really nice older lady about pumps. She was the one who gave me instructions. I was so grateful, I told her, "I'll think of you when I use the pump." She just laughed. 

I can masturbate—thankfully—and I seem to have faster orgasms. BUT they are dry! Two things. First. I really miss cumming. I used to be able to hit my chin on good days. I miss not being able to slurp up my cum, something I started doing a few years back. 

With a dry orgasm, there is nothing to clean up, which is convenient. My cock is not as hard as before, but I can still enjoy stroking and orgasming. And for the first time in my life, I can fake an orgasm. But why would I?

I started looking at a lot of videos of men in the past few years and that has helped me now. I look at guys stroking and shooting their semen and I can cum to that. Of course, seeing the semen is even more exciting nowadays.  Having had my penis affected as it has makes me appreciate other penises in their prime.

I have been continent from the start with only a dribble when I cough or strain. I wear a pad but it isn't too bad. So, the doc wants me to be faithful about doing kegels. Eventually I will be able to go commando again.

Maybe this post will help you if you are set for surgery. If nothing, please get your PSA checked. I had NO SYMPTOMS. It was the blood work that detected the cancer. And it was a big one when they took it out: the size of a lacrosse ball. 

Didn't get clean margins but the tumor had only burst the capsule by less that 3mm. My most recent PSA is .017 which the doc says is the new baseline. Not a candidate for radiation at this point.

SO, get your PSA checked regularly. Keep stroking as often as you can. And appreciate your semen. Now is a great time to start eating your own cum. One day, you many not have any!
