Recovery timelines for erectile dysfunction after prostate cancer treatment vary significantly from person to person, with some men seeing gradual improvement over months to years while others may need additional support or treatments. The combination of surgery and radiation can extend recovery time, but there are many effective options available to discuss with healthcare providers when ready, and the faith and positive mindset you're maintaining can be an important part of the healing journey.

That's such good advice - recovery really does vary so much between people, and it might also help to ask your care team about the timing for when different support options could be most effective for where you are in your healing journey right now.
