Bad news for the older men!

Reuters is reporting that among men who undergo surgery for prostate cancer, one out of every five can who do can expect to lose upwards of an inch of erect penis size.

Lovely. A new indignity to look forward to.

I'm sure you'll have nothing to fear, m'dear... besides, it's not the length of the wand, it's the magic in the stick ;)

I find this bit much more alarming...

While 92 percent of patients prior to surgery reported being able to achieve an erection, only 33 percent retained that ability three months later.

Indeed, I've heard that with prostate disease (precursor to cancer) one of the best treatments is "use it or lose it". Somehow I don't see that as a problem for you ......

My mother's partner is in remission from prostrate cancer, and he can't. I pointed out to my mother that there were other ways...he won't. Poor Mom.
