Tips and advice for any mental and emotional side effects of treatment

Talk about your feelings, if you don't have anyone to listen write them down in a note book.

How this treatment impacted my life the most

To start with it was the fear of the unknown about the treatment. Emotions all over the place regarding sexual performance.

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

It was the least intrusive, the actual treatment was painless, side effects have been minimal todate, had my last session 14/11/2023 so still early days re side effects kicking in.
