Bye bye prostate - concerned about the effects my prostate removal has had on my relationship with my partner

Quite a difficult and even taboo subject is the effect on life after having the prostate removed and more specific the sex life has between the partner and I has ceased altogether. So one has resorted to other means to cope, but don't really think its the right one for mental strength.

  • Hello Geebs

    I just wanted to let you know about the sexual service that Prostate Cancer UK provides. The service is available to both you and your partner. 

    It can sometimes help to talk with someone who understands the struggles that you may both be dealing with at the moment. 

    I do hope that the two of you are able to support each other through this next phase of your treatment. 

    Best wishes,
