Another great Video Victoria and Melissa. Still pumping after 2 years with 95% function back for good penile health.. we ain’t getting any younger so this is an easy way to keep him fit! “Keep it up” with these great videos! 💕
None of this stuff worked for me. Prostatectomy in 1996 at age 48. No erections nor orgasms since. Been 27 years now. Only option left is surgery for an implant. No thanks. I would take back my cancer-addled prostate in a New York minute!
Hi Chaaz, thank you for sharing your story, it sounds like you've had a real struggle post surgery with side effects. I hope you get some new ideas and options to try from these videos.
100% Fully agree with Chaaaaz. I'd rather die in a shorter life rather than suffer the abject lack of dignity and emasculation by something like this. When will the medical profession stop pretending this is ok? That this is the way forward? It is ok to prefer death as opposed to certain things in life. Quit "helping". And women have no place in this end of the medical business. Have they no idea how hard it is for a man to talk about this sort of thing? This is why men don't even bother with medical appointments. Its like she has never met a man. Let completely alone talking to a woman about things she cant understand? And especially someone who will never even remotely be able to process how a man feels? No thanks. Next.
Use it or Loose it ! healthy approach to rehabilitation is paramount to success! 5 years on I feel great ! Your advise is so honest and very helpful , fantastic videos 😊don’t get hung up on size ? Is my advise
I got ED from a pelvic fracture urethral injury due to a motorcycle accident. Atrophy and mild Peyronies started to set in shortly after. Taking 5mg of cialis, traction, using a pump and injections together have worked wonders for keeping the old fella healthy while I patiently wait for the nerves to repair 🤞🏻
Hi Jay thank you for your message and sharing your rehabilitation journey thus far. We are so pleased to hear that these methods have been working wonders for you! All the best for your recovery :)
Prostate removal November 2022. I've lost length. Didn't have much of anything to spare. I'm unfortunately small. My wife doesn't do much to help me with my ED since surgery. I do the pump and use Trimix but I can't get erection on my on and still haven''t regained any length.
Hi, thanks for your comment and for sharing a bit about where you are at. You may like consider talking this through in more depth with someone who has likely consulted with men in your exact situation and might be able to give more of an idea of what might be possible, I recommend reaching out to Melissa Hadley Barrett. She's consulted with thousands of men doing erection rehab, she consults worldwide via zoom. You can book here: rshealth.com.au/
Hi Mike, thank you for your comment. Thank you for sharing, everybody's experience is certainly different, and it is difficult to predict outcomes for each individual.
I've been using the pump and a traction device since 2 months after my surgery which was 2 years ago. I've not gotten natural erections yet. I've tried viagra and cialis to no avail. Not really interested in Needles so injections are out. I'm 72 and they may never come back but I continue to exercise the muscle.
Thank you for sharing your story Thomas, well done on continuing to keep your penile muscle tissue in good condition, I hope you get some new ideas/options to try from our videos. Wishing you the best of luck on your rehab journey!
Great video. Can you do some post prostate radiation treatment videos, I imagine that it may be pretty much the same but would like more information. Thanks.

You need to do pelvic floor exercises everyday as well as a penis pump at least 5 times a week. You goal is the get the D back to normal. It can take time …. Too long for some but in the end it is worth it. I had robotic prostate surgery in 2020 as well as radiation for positive margins. I would like to be spontaneous but we can’t have everything. I use the Osbon pump as well as the rings.My goal is a PSA of 0.01 non detectable. I hold my breath every six months. I am a cancer survivor. Pelvic exercises can add life back into your penis. nocturnal Erections are not what you were used to but you’d get at least some action. It takes Time and commitment to achieve this. If you are older, (I am 77)you lose collagen in your skin. I take Your Theory collagen with Biotin to help with elasticity of my penis and balls. I have been using the pump 2 weeks after the removal of my catheter and doing kegels about 6 week before surgery.

You will initially lose about a half an inch, due to the shortening of the urethra, where the prostate was. In addition, you will no longer have nocturnal erections, so it is not getting any exercise. The vacuum pump will stretch it back out, which increases blood flow and oxygen for better healing, and gets the length back. It only takes about ten minutes a day.
The “spacer” your looking for is a Penile implant. I also think you are vastly exaggerating the ability of most men who are not young and who have had other than perfect surgical treatments to recover natural erections. The true total recovery percentage is closer to 5%. But the overall message you send about early, continuous treatment is correct. You should include a discussion about implants. For most men this “fixes” length n girth in place at the start. AND heavens yes, measured this thing before u start. It will be the “fish that got away “ Otherwise.
Hi Henry, you're quite right, it's a lot more complicated than that! The penis is indeed made up of smooth muscle, but skeletal muscle comes into play too. It would be fun to interview an anatomy expert about this. Perhaps a future video idea...
@@ATouchySubject I don't agree. Most sources refer to the corpora cavernosa and spongiosum as being made of "erectile tissue" not smooth muscle. So I wouldn't say the penis is made of smooth muscle, as such. The pelvic floor is skeletal muscle.
I had a radical prostatectomy 4-5 years ago and lost the ability to get an erection. I use Trimix for that but I also lost some length. What pump do you recommend or would any pump work. Also I’ve heard that a pump won’t increase length at all but may help with the erection part.
Hi there, thanks for your comment and for sharing a bit about your rehabilitation. We recommend the Vacurect device (which can also help regain length and girth after surgery), noting that the results will vary with each individual. You can find out more information here: www.atouchysubject.com/ I hope this helps!
Why would you be asking a woman something like this when there are so many credible sources who actually know and fully understand this issue. It's like asking a man how he would feel after a hysterectomy. Useless and silly.
no, your penis is not a muscle. And no thanks. I will live with what God gave me rather than suffer the indignity and emasculation of a procedure like this. If I have issues like this after 70, then I'll happily die with it rather than not feeling like a man. I see how my 81-year-old father has been dealing with a pee bag for the past 7 years and I want no part of that. I think it was good for me to see what he is going through as it solidified it in my mind that I will NEVER go through that BS. Why is it always some woman telling men how this should be dealt with. Someone who could never in 1,000 years even have an inkling of what its like.
Oh yes, great answer...use a tape measure and write it down?!?!?!? and she says to measure it and email the size to her?!? WTF is she on about? The silliest and most mentally destructive...potentially devastating answer I have ever heard.
I would like to believe your comments that someone can come back from shrinkage a year or two later after RP. My penis used to be before surgery - erect 7" and now it is less than 4" with a penile implant. It is so short that I cannot even that I cannot have sex anymore. Simply put it cannot reach let alone move in and out. Whether or not you agree with my before surgery length I used to have very satisfying sex. Even if I could have sex, my penis has little sensitive, no ejaculations, no natural erections, and as I explained too short for sex. The only thing my penis does now is pee. Even that operation is controlled by an implant. Maybe I am missing the silver lining to a very very dark cloud.
A lady commenting on this topic is absolutely silly. Kind of like a man having an opinion of living through a hysterectomy.... it's just a dumb idea and a meaningless opinion of someone who will never actually understand. She is simply repeating what she has read and heard.
Sadly.... the reality is a mistake to do prostatectomy because you look like a dog castrated , dog is happy but ... the little dog doesn't recall what he lost . I am still searching a natural way. Thanks for the info, but I passed.
Hi Oscar. Thank you for your comment. We are sorry to hear you are experiencing treatment regret. It sounds like you didn't receive adequate support post-surgery. We’ve heard from many men who have had this experience , you are not alone. We hope you find some ideas on our channel to move forward with.
Hello. Thank you for your expertise and knowledge on penile rehabilitation. It’s obviously an important and sensitive issue for men. I’ve had incredible success in my rehabilitation that my penis is a lot longer and thicker than ever before. It now hangs much lower and heavier at a flaccid state. And when fully erect it’s massive. I incorporated hydro pumping; of course water and pump combined. Plus getting it professionally massaged several times a week.

Sadly, in some cases, too much urethra has been removed and it doesn't grow back length, no matter how much rehabilitation you do.

How good is it to stretch it with pump , in other words does it cause scars in the erectile tissue.
Can a narrow tube "pull" the shaft enough so that the length remains.
Hi there, thank you for your comment, would you mind rephrasing your question please? I'm unsure what you mean by the length remaining?
@@ATouchySubjectWhat I mean is, is it possible to keep the length without expanding the girth ?
Does the urethane grow in length from being stretched
