In some cases, this is medical, as nerves and blood vessels crucial to erection may be removed as part of a surgical procedure or damaged due to chemotherapy. \u201cNerve-sparing\u201d procedures are becoming more common in order to prevent these complications, and generally patients with intact nerves and blood vessels see function return within a year.<\/p>\n<p data-speechify-sentence=\"\">Regardless of the procedure, however, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/conditions-and-diseases\/prostate-cancer\/erectile-dysfunction-after-prostate-cancer\">RP&#8217;s overall impact on sexual health<\/a> can be profound. Due to the role of the prostate in creating semen, for example, total removal means a man can no longer ejaculate. While a man can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/blog\/achieving-orgasm-after-radical-prostatectomy-201310152034\">orgasm without ejaculation<\/a>, the inability to ejaculate can cause erectile dysfunction for psychological reasons, as it impacts sexual desire and the patient&#8217;s mental state, even if sexual functioning is otherwise intact.<\/p>\n<h3>What Options Are There For RP Patients To Treat Erectile Dysfunction?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-speechify-sentence=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/compare-viagra-cialis-levitra-staxyn-stendra-find-best-erection-medications\/ \">PDE5 inhibitors<\/a>. More commonly known as ED drugs, PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/buy-viagra\/\">Viagra<\/a>), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/vardenafil\/\">Levitra<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/cialis\/\">Cialis<\/a>, have been shown to be effective to some degree for many RP patients. PDE5 inhibitors are vasodilators, which open up blood vessels and allow more blood into the penis to stimulate an erection. However, if blood vessels have been damaged or removed, these oral medications may not work as well.<\/li>\n<li data-speechify-sentence=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/drugs\/10053-vacuum-constriction-devices\">Vacuum constriction devices<\/a> (VCDs), generally called \u201cpenis pumps,\u201d draw blood into the penis to achieve an erection using suction, and then a retaining band (i.e., a penis ring) is slid onto the base of the shaft. There are side effects, however, such as numbness, bruising, and difficulty with orgasm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fil fr-dib aligncenter\" style=\"width: 900px;\" src=\"https:\/\/mediashower.com\/img\/2D7EAFFC-7A4F-11EB-97F2-549077F19EA8\/bigstock-Tablet-with-the-chemical-formu-63667744_900x.jpg\" alt=\"Sildenafil molecular formula.\" width=\"900\" height=\"598\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Can I Combine These Therapies?<\/h3>\n<p data-speechify-sentence=\"\">Yes, and in fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33532301\">a 2021 meta-analysis<\/a> has found combining Viagra\/sildenafil and a VCD to be the most effective treatment for post-prostatectomy ED. A team at the Department of Urology of West China Hospital combined the results of 24 studies encompassing 3500 patients to compare the effects of ED drugs and VCDs, separately and in combination.<\/p>\n<p data-speechify-sentence=\"\">They found that the combination was the most effective treatment. In particular, they found that a combination of VCD and 50 milligrams of sildenafil, either daily or on demand, worked best six months after the procedure. This makes sense when you consider how the two methods work.<\/p>\n<p data-speechify-sentence=\"\">The important points:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-speechify-sentence=\"\">The sildenafil allows more blood flow into the penis by opening up blood vessels, particularly important when function is impaired by surgery.<\/li>\n<li data-speechify-sentence=\"\">The VCD helps to pull blood into the penis, making it easier to achieve and hold an erection.<\/li>\n<li data-speechify-sentence=\"\">The timing is important because the patient has healed and possibly regained some sexual function.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-speechify-sentence=\"\">Although the study&#8217;s findings are promising, the combination therapy is not a perfect solution. Post-procedure issues such as the lack of semen and difficulty with orgasm, not to mention the mental health effects of any surgical procedure, will need to be addressed.
