33. Meet ‘Mish’ - ”My penis stopped being mesmerising”. Prostate Cancer in South Africa

  For this episode, meet the ‘recovery man ‘ Mish. Mish is one of our avid weekly listeners, all the way from South Africa! And we’re so excited to share his story with you.    Mish was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2019. Unfortunately, after his surgery, his penis stopped being mesmerising. He felt like he didn’t have the information that he needed to start the rehabilitation process but he had the knowledge that if he stopped using his penis, he might lose it. So he decided to look for resources on the internet. That’s where he found Victoria Cullen (A Touchy Subject) and then our Dr. Jo and finally, The Penis Project.    Listen as he shares his very candid story which includes;  penis pills, using a Vacurect, getting intimate once again with his wife, and a lot more stories we’re sure you can relate to.    Mish really took charge of his health and we hope that this would inspire you, too.    Have a listen when you click the PLAY button below.  ------ This week includes a special code to use on A Touchy Subject’s Pleasure Masterclass TOUCHY50 ------ Here are the links to the resources mentioned by Mish as well as his blog link:  A Touchy Subject Website - please check the resources page The Recovering Man website - Mish’s website ------ The Penis Project Podcast is the place to come to find out everything you’ve always wanted to know about men’s health but were too embarrassed to ask.
