If, "post" prostate removal, you retain the key nerves in good condition you will be able to have normal sex. If your nerves are damaged during surgery (bad surgeon) or they had to be removed because they had cancer cells on them, then you are going to have serious problems getting an erection the natural way. Once you have your prostate removed, it is very important to take Viagra or other drugs like it to help keep the muscle strong and unatrophied.

Here's some information I found, QUOTE:
David B. Samadi, M.D.
Vice Chairman, Department of Urology
Chief of Robotics and Minimally Invasive Surgery
The Mount Sinai Medical Center
I am fortunate enough to work with internationally known expert in the field of Sexual function after Robotic Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy, Natan Bar-Chama, MD.
His expertise is part of the all-rounded approach for the treatment of prostate cancer with the advanced technology of robotic radical prostatectomy. The program includes individualized evaluation of sexual function prior to radical prostatectomy and specific methods to recover sexual function thereafter.
“The harshest onset of erectile dysfunction (ED) comes with facing the reality of prostate cancer. One day you are healthy (or so you think) and the next day, after a standard yearly physical and a blood test, the prostatic specific antigen (PSA), you find out you have cancer. Your first reaction and that of your sexual partner will be to get through it, save your life, fight the cancer and get rid of it, nothing else matters. But something else does matter, especially to you—your sexual wellbeing, your ability to have an erection. Although you cannot ignore the prostate cancer, any of the various treatments for it can rob you of your sexual ability. And once the cancer threat is passed, and you know you’ll survive and you get your normal life and routine back, sexual performance will suddenly be very important again. Facing ED as a result of prostate cancer treatment can be devastating, but let me reassure you that there is successful rehabilitation of your sexual function after treatment of prostate cancer.
