"I finished radiation and am on a year of Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT), which reduces my testosterone to zero. My libido went from high to low, but if I take Cialis and we have a lot of touching and foreplay, I'm good to go for oral sex, frotting and mutual masturbation, but not hard enough for intercourse."
"My husband has been amazing: coming to my medical appointments, holding and comforting me during side effects of radiation. We’ve maintained a sex life but when things aren't going that great I find myself apologizing for my lack of performance."
"I know it’s not true that I’m still sexy despite my husband’s reassurances. My body hair has fallen off, and I’ve lost a lot of muscle. I feel like I have nothing to give him in this area since I’m essentially castrated."
"Part of me thinks he has crossed a line and I wanted to say, 'Thanks for the thought but we’re monogamous,' but it tugged on something in my heart. It WOULD be nice to have sex with someone who understands how much can change."
