Pump and Cream?

User

Hi guys - can anybody help with an erection question? This place seems to be the best place on earth to ask!

I am 10 weeks after a non nerve sparing radical prostatectomy. My specialist nurse has been fantastic.....I have a  Somatherapy-ED hand-cranked vacuum pump and have been doing what my partner calls my penis homework religiously (despite it getting pretty uncomfortable at times).

I also have a stash of Alprostadil cream in the fridge. It sounds like there is a 50% chance that the cream may give me some kind of realistically-useable erection. The method of application does sound somewhat eye-watering though.

Before I go ahead and dive into the cream stash, does anybody have any hints/suggestions/warnings/ideas of what to expect when I use it and about how I can maximise the chances of it working?

Just follow the instructions to the letter. The nature of that treatment is that it will work if it's going to.

Suggest practicing on your own first..

If that doesn't work ask for the injection form or try out the pump and constriction rings,
