No orgasm after radical prostatectomy Davinci Robotic sugery

CraigGrant

Hello, I had the radical prostatectomy surgery in August of 2024 so it's been a year since the surgery. I experienced a handful of orgasms which contained regular spasms with the orgasm in the first 6 months that had 40% feeling compared to before surgery. So I was hopeful. Now a year later I don't have only have only spasms which releases some urine along with it. No feeling goes with these, 0%.

I still a have a little incontinence, so i am wearing incontinence underwear along with a woman's mini pad, small and thin. I replace the pad once through out the day to avoid the smell.

I am extremely disappointed with this,

If you don't have a prostate after a radical prostatectomy and you don't have an orgasm, is that similar to being celibate I asked? I know Nerve-sparing surgery may preserve erections, but many men experience reduced erectile function. If someone has had a radical prostatectomy, they can approach their new reality as a form of involuntary celibacy. With awareness, they can transform sexual energy into, creativity, devotion, or intimacy in non-sexual ways — very much like a yogi does through chosen celibacy.

Through yoga and meditation I have been experiencing a more spiritual flow. I have probably lost 70% of the people who were reading this. IT'S A VERY POSITIVE THING TO NOTE IF YOU ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH HAVING ORGASMS! I feel extremely blessed to be able to experience these divine moments.

Very nice that you found a satisfying alternate to losing the ability to have full orgasms. I am happy that you found a higher level and broader outlook on your situation now, and going forward, as a PCa survivor. This has been a recurring topic on this Discussion Board for well over the decade that I've been a member, and it will serve as good advice for folks who take the time to pause their self pity and read it through.

IMO, any man who says he's not a man, or his life is worthless, simply because he can't achieve an orgasm, has a very narrow, and may I say a distorted, view on what makes a man a man.

Yes it's a struggle and it just doesnt feel the same. The work it takes tends to kill the desire.
