Hi George,

Personal answers are not possible for this site. If you are taking the lupron injections, are they having any effect in helping you to achieve an erection? Having had your prostate removed, I would think it would be difficult at best. There are many ways to give pleasure that do not involve intercourse and having an erection.

There is a lot of information available by resident experts as well as everyday people who live with these conditions every day here on the Health Central site. Here are some links that you might find helpful when speaking to your doctor.

There is information here about penile implants and here you can read about other alternatives. 

There is a good section about coping here that might have some information you find helpful. The Harvard Health Publications group posted an article here about men who have orgasms without erections. You can read the full article here. Dr Tepper wrote an article you might find helpful. It's written more for men who have disabilities, but there might be something you find useful as well. You can read that article here.

I hope this helps. Please stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!
