General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Low back surgery is not known to affect your erection, ejaculation or sexual performance. Following any major surgery, it takes about 3 months to recover completely and get back to routine activities. Hence, don't be in a hurry to judge about your erection or sexual performance at this stage. It would take some time and would improve gradually. You can start pelvic muscle strengthening exercise after 2 weeks, which should help in your case.
Take healthy diet and supplement with vitamins and minerals regularly. Do follow-up as advised by your doctor.
Hope the information provided helps.

All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.
