I was diagnosed with prostrate cancer a little over a year ago. Based on my Gleason score My Doctor recommended Radiation and hormone shots. I finished the radiation treatment and  was released by the Radiologist from further treatment in November 2006 The next PSA test results came in at 0. My problem is that I cannot reach a climax when I try to have sex with my wife, the pump is fine and the expensive little blue pills are great. But, I was wondering if any other men had experienced this problem. I don't even have the desire anymore. but once I get started I want to finish the job and enjoy it.I'm still on the hormone shots

When I read about the problems other people are having and the cases where the PSA have started to rise again for many men I feel my problem is minor

hormone shots are chemical castration.  The idea is to lower testosterone which fuels PC growth.  This low testosterone has many effects on sexual function in the male, including erections, interest and climax.
