My main message during Prostate Cancer Awareness month is to let people know that if you do have complications that develop after Prostate Cancer Treatment, including Erectile Dysfunction or Urinary Incontinence, we have solutions!
When Erectile Dysfunction isn't responding to pills or injection therapy, it can be cured with a Penile Implant, which is a very safe, highly effective procedure with incredibly high satisfaction rates. Urinary Incontinence can be treated with an artificial sphincter or a male sling.
