Would removal of the prostate result in erectile dysfunction?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Removal of prostate can happen with or without removal of surrounding nerves based on the patient's condition. Persons whose nerves are spared may have erectile dysfunction for mostly 2 years or so post surgery which regains back slowly. Persons whose nerves are removed may have permanent erection issues and may need medications for it.

View allI'm facing a really painful issue. Every time I have sex or my partner gives me oral, my foreskin tears, and it's really hurting a lot. It's especially painful if I try to have sex within the next day or two after it happens. It usually takes around 23 days for it to heal completely. What can I do about this, and is there a way to prevent it from happening in the first place?

my penis hasn't grown since childhood and stays around 3 inches when erect is this normal or could there be an underlying issue are there any surgical options to address this
A penis length of around 3 inches when erect may suggest a condition called micropenis, which can have hormonal or developmental causes. It's important to consult an endocrinologist or urologist for proper evaluation. Surgical options like penile lengthening procedures exist but are considered only after medical assessment and counseling.
