Prostate surgery (prostate carcinoma)

Phallostretch helps after prostate surgery

The prostate gland is located below the bladder and surrounds the urethra. In a young man the prostate is the size of a chestnut. Most of the spermatic fluid is formed in the prostate and ejaculated when the prostate contracts.

In the course of life – particularly in older men – there is often an enlargement of the prostate. Here we refer to benign prostate enlargement (hyperplasia). This is often accompanied by symptoms such as nocturnal urination, dribbling and a constant urge to pass water. However, these symptoms can also be caused by malignant prostate enlargement (prostate cancer).

If prostate cancer is detected early enough, it can be cured by radical removal of the prostate and the adjacent lymph nodes. That is why it is extremely important that cancer is diagnosed at an early stage.

How can Phallostretch help after prostate surgery?

In most cases prostate surgery has a negative effect on the rigidity of the member. The hardening of the penis is regulated by blood vessels and erection nerves. This vessel-nerve bundle controls the hardening of the penis and the inflow of blood to the cavernous body.

In the case of radical prostate removal this vessel-nerve bundle may be damaged or must be removed because it has already become infiltrated by a tumour.

Even if nerve-retaining surgery is possible, many patients are subsequently unable to achieve an adequate erection.

The penis itself is not affected. Sensitivity and feeling remain unchanged; an orgasm – with significantly less sperm – is still possible. However, for the patient to be able to engage in sexual intercourse he must obtain an “artificial” stiffening of the member.

With the cavernous body auto-injection therapy the patient injects vessel-expanding medication into the penis to facilitate an erection.

Hardness can be mechanically restored by the use of a vacuum pump in combination with a penis ring prior to sex. Viagra® can also help to restore the rigidity of the penis.

Early, regular stimulation of the penis is important so as not to lose the ability to achieve an erection. Phallostretch continuously stimulates the penis by natural and gentle means. Phallostretch not only has a positive effect on a man’s ability to have an erection, it also prevents possible retraction (shrinking) of the penis following prostate surgery.
