Hi,
TURP is known to cause ED and retrograde ejaculation>
But ED is temporary. Most patients regain their erections in approximately 6-9 months.
The indifference towards sex might be due to a psychological reaction to the illness and surgery and their associated symptoms. Counseling should help you regain interest. It would help you to consult along with your partner.

Decreased quality and frequency of erections has been documented after TURP. IF you had good erections earlier before TURP then you would have it back sooner. You can take Tadalafil to see the response. Check out the post void residual urine as well as you are urinating frequently. Consult your Urologist regarding this issue
