Re: How long does it take after 8 weeks of Tomotherapy to resume satisfactory se

[Guest guest]

I'll repeat what Steve Jordan said, but using stronger words:

.. . . It's _criminal_ that you weren't warned about the loss of libido!

I suggest (along with his readings) a copy of

.. . . Saving Your Sex Life: A Guide for Men with Prostate Cancer

.. . . by Dr. Mulhall

which has some material on hormone-blocking therapy and sexuality (and a whole

lot of information on other sexual problems).

had Lupron hotmone therapy along with the radiation. I have noticed a big drop

in libido. I have have a few erections the the morning while going through the

treatments bnut they didn't last long when I wanted to have sex. Prior to my

treatments my wife and I were very sexually active..3-4 times a week. Is anyone

else facing these same problems? Is there hope for me to have a somewhat normal

sex life?
