1. A method of treating a sexual disorder, the method comprising:

  • placing an array of electrodes adjacent a prostate or where a native prostate was located prior to prostatectomy, the array of electrodes disposed on at least one flat flexible substrate;

    selectively activating subsets of the array of electrodes to empirically determine an identity of a subset of the array of electrodes comprising the at least one electrode;

    storing the identity of the empirically determined subset of the array of electrodes; and

    supplying electrical stimulation via the empirically determined subset of the array of electrodes to stimulate a pelvic plexus and thereby at least one cavernous nerve to cause an erection.
