I had an appointment with Dr. Crisler the last days.
I told him I was off fin since 7 years now with hardly any recovery regarding the sexual functions (libido, ED).
I sent him all my bloodwork previously without any remarkable results; hence all levels seem to be in range or indeed pretty good.
I am anyways more the opinion that the cause is something neurological rather than something hormonal (don’t know if these areas can be seperated however).
I will have the Rheinlab test done the next days and also my AdiolG level checked and am going to post this here again.
In the meantime Dr. Crisler wants me to take acetyl-l-carnitine & propionyl-l-carnitine (2g each/day). This stuff is fucking expensive but ok; i’ll do it for the next months and keep you updated on that.
Some studies show the effectiveness of these substances for nerve protection and helping the ED issue. People who suffer from for example diabetes with peripherel nerve damage can benefit from these substances.
Further, it seems that Acetyl-l-carnitine and propionyl-l-carnitine cross the blood-brain barrier and affect the expression of NGF (nerve growth factors) receptors and therefore help with cognitive functions as well, maybe even in nerve regeneration (however, there are not so many published articles who can really confirm this, yet).
Take care!
