Here, Medical Oncologist Mark Scholz, MD, discusses the sexual side effects of radiation and steps that men can take to try and mitigate these side effects. 0:26 What are the sexual side effects of radical treatment with radiation? ("radical," meaning that the radiation is administered to the entire prostate gland.) 2:09 What is the proper dosage and timing of drugs like Cialis? 4:29 What is the timeline for erectile dysfunction after radiation? 5:39 Is there anything patients can do prior to radiation treatment to reduce the probability of having erectile dysfunction? 7:10 Why do the side effects of surgery happen immediately, while impotence from radiation can occur a year or more after treatment? 8:41 Can focal therapy help mitigate sexual side effects from prostate cancer treatment? 9:46 You have mentioned using injection therapy after surgery as an attempt to have regular erections as a form of maintenance to prevent penile atrophy; is the same true for radiation? 10:58 When would a patient start injection therapy to try and prevent penile atrophy?
