Hi,
I am five years post radical prostatectomy. I help facilitate a prostate cancer support group and try to stay current on prostate cancer and related issues, including ED and incontinence. I consider myself fortunate as I regained continence within 8-10 weeks after surgery; sexual function at about 9 months post surgery. I look forward to learning and sharing with others the knowledge offered here.

Brian,
You said you regaine sexual function 9 months out of surgery. That's great! Did that happen on its own, or did you do anything to move things along?
