I have a friend who was diagnosed with bone cancer (in his leg) as a young teen (around 13). He was treated through surgery and cancer treatment. He was told then that the treatment left him impotent. Is there a possibility that the status on that can change or is it usually permanent?

Yes he can.

The radiation was a bit to strong I suppose but they needed to use that to safe his life. But he will remain impotent:sorry for him. Never heard it restored.
4 :
no, it will not make him perm impotent. an erection occurs becasue of a surge of blood flow. that has nothing to do with chemo. what WILL happen is his sperm wil be damaged or he will become sterile. when men go thru chemo, many of them elect to have sperm frozen for future use.
