just a few random/odd questions

General Discussion
#1

IDK if this is just me, but whenever i’m fooling around with a girl I can get an erection, about 85% id say… before she is actually touching it… hard enough to have sex… but when I would look at porn I can never get an erection without stimulating myself… im assuming this is due to low libido.?? however when im on the train to work in the morning AM… If i think and concentrate I can get an erection about 85%… I find that I get the best erections at night…not spontaneous ones, but when I get them through my own stimulation… morning not … But i do wake up with morning erections about 4 days a week, but they are mainly like 60%… but sometimes, like this morning, 95%…and its usally every 4 days ill have spontanteous ones at work… also like 60% ish…

Another very odd thing I noticed, sometimes when I dont get a lot of sleep… maybe 3 hours of sleep lets say… I’ll get a lot of spontaneous erections, around 60% hard… but probably 4 of them a day everytime that happens… It just makes no damn sense… no sleep = more erections? what the F? also… another weird thing… Times when I dont get good sleep, the numbness is at its worst… its not bad or anything… but it is just rather odd to me…idk… this is just kind of a rant…Perhaps this the numbness comes from the tissue not being taken care of bc I didnt get enough sleep for me to get a morning erection. Which may be why I get 4 of them during the day…And when I get these spontaneous ones… they are gone after maybe a minute… I sleep decently well and always have… Every so often though Ill have trouble sleeping after I masturbate. this only happens though if my shlong isnt working as good…Sorry for the giant rant…any of you think I have a chance of recovering? I think im better off then a lot of ppl on here. no pun intended of course…just looking for opinions… I’m making a appt with crisler on Monday

I notice when I’m with my gf I can usually get hard with no stimulation with no problems. Sometimes it is 100 percent but usually about 80-90 percent. When I’m alone, forget about it. Takes manual stimulation and laying down to get it 80 percent.

I think this has to do with the element of touching. I think the sexual stimulus is enhanced by the girl touching your skin and the pheromones you pick up from her scent.

I was getting consistent morning/noctural wood before my latest setback. Never get spontaneous daily erections. Penis is usually numb. I have no idea about recovery. My body is out of control. I have periods of recovery with massive fluctuations in symptoms. Then complete hormonal shifts that make me feel like after my crash. I try not to think positive as ridiculous as that sounds. Every time I have thought I was recovering, my body has shut down. The more optimism, the bigger the let down.

Partial androgen insensitivity causing massive hormone imbalance.

Talk about set backs…i took some arginine yesterday and im right back to being a noodle(she aint goin nowhere no matter how good the girl smells)

I am realising the awful fact that for the period I was on fin - five freaking years - I had probably less sexual function than some guys who have crashed. Had some failures which I attributed to drink or nerves, lost morning erections. Probably weaker erections too, and less ejaculate. Still had spontaneous erections but less in amount and maybe of varying quality. Maybe easier to get hard laying down too but didn’t think too much of all these things in tandem, not as obsessive as we all are now. Still watched porn and all, but was probably checking out girls just through force of habit than through hormonal desire as pre-fin. I perhaps had the sexuality of a much older guy. I even went to the (female) doc once complaining of low libido, she just gave me a viagra script, an embarassing and unhelpful experience which maybe made me bury my head in the sand even more. I wonder if seeing a male doc might have saved me.

Nonetheless I never had a shrunken package (at least not until the very very end and it was only slight), complete impotence, no libido etc. Still watched porn right until the end, albeit with erections that were maybe more short-lived, yet some guys who are totally dead seem to recover when they come off. This whole thing and how it turns out seems so random and unfair.

You’re damn lucky you never had shrunken package. Its horrific to put it mildly. Wondering if its ever coming back or if its gone forever, etc. Its a complete nightmare.

#6

I have noticed a lot of the stuff your talking about toadstool, I am confused by the messages my body is sending me out too. Less sleep > more erections? how can that be.

This is all one big fucking joke, I swear. We have absolutely nothing certain to go on, I feel like the best I can do is devise a sensible health routine, encorporating a good diet, supplements and exercise and just get on with my life hoping that I will recover. At least people with standard Thyroid or Prostate problems for example can get a diagnosis and treat there condition.

#7

It’s a joke that the FDA is ignoring this website and letting innocent teenagers and young adults suffer from Erectile Dysfunction…and it’s just CRUEL for Merck to laugh off at this situation and continue to make $$$ off the drug.

Back in late 2002 I never thought it would GET THIS FAR. Society, sadly has let me down…horribly…

#8

Yes, I think this has a lot to do with it… is there anyway make them become more sensitive? Im kind of new to all of this, I really dont like coming on this forum to much… you guys kinda bring me down… no offense… But I have been doing a lot of reading so Im starting to get it…

As far as having a thyroid problem or prostate issue, i dont think thats my problem… though idk…Im actually pretty healthy, and feel alright most of the time ( non sexually of course)… funny thing about my libido is I still check out girls non-stop… I just dont get the same feeling that I do when I see a really good looking one that really attracted to…

As far as touching I think you’re right… whenever a girl touches me it makes me feel good in that region…

I don’t have a shrunken package at all… maybe a lil tissue change on my penis that is it… but my testicles do hang low a lot… they kinda always did, but never this much… anyone have any idea as to why they hang out like that?

#9

okay this is also kinda gross I know, but my balls always smell… and i wash them everyday almost… and its never happend before untill I’ve had these side effects… does this have anythign to do with the prostate? also… I did notice that once in a while… i’ll leak after I pee… once in a great great while though… maybe 2 days outta the month if that. what do you guys think?

#10

I was gonna comment about this at some point…

#11

lol? it was kind of a serious question, but no way to say it to make it seem like a joke. truth.

#12

serious my package wrecks

#13

I think it has something to do with the prostate… from what I’ve been reading at least…mine still look the same though… they just smell all of a sudden after a year… makes no sense… this is the only explanation… but someone who knows more about the prostate could probably tell me… I’m just kinda dumb/lazy and dont feel like looking more into it… i’ll bring it up to Crisler when I see him… also, another way something could be wrong with ur prostate or live would be ur feces… mine has a yellowish tint to it… and it hasn’t been like that all my life… just since fin… makes a lot of sense to me… just having a hard time putting it all together because im to lazy to do so. hmm.

#14

I’m not sure if I’ve already told you this toady but the yellow tint in your stool is likely to be higher than normal billirubin levels which I’ve been told indicates copper toxicity from a doctor. Another told me it’s a definately sign of liver dysfunction and likely some kind of toxicity problem.

#15

I actually just PMed you J899… any ideas on how to fix this? because I believe you said you have copper toxicity… how are you treating it?

#16

Another odd thing that ive noticed is that I sometimes have to take deep breathes… but just one… but ill take it every 10 minutes or so… AND sometimes when im trying to sleep… I can only take real deep breathes… it makes no sense to me and has never happened prior to taking fin…Ive never had any trouble breathing or anything… reasons as to why?
