I have been a regular smoker for the past seven years, usually averaging about one to two packs a week. (about five cigarettes a day) Anyways, I’ve recently decided to cut back my smoking significantly and I’m thinking about quitting altogether now. Although, as a result of quitting smoking I have began to get morning erections again. (Here’s a brief rundown of my situation in case you didnt know. I fasted for two weeks, afterwards I got terrific morning erections, those lasted for a month until I took royal jelly which made my morning erections completely go away, after which I didn’t have consistent morning erections for about two months up until now.) Additionally I feel a lot of energy/restlessness. This is energy that can easily be channeled towards physical activity or sex. I have noticed that I feel a lot more of an impetus to go out there and find girls/new sexual partners, and when I have sex with my girlfriend I feel MUCH more sexually aggressive now. Like I seriously just feel like pounding the shit out of her, as oppose to before where I would just be trying to enjoy the sensation of sex. I would even go as far as to say that my libido is better now that it was six or seven years ago. However don’t get me wrong, I am not saying my libido/performance is good now, I am just saying it is relatively better. That got me thinking about something really crazy, namely…what if it is possible that by becoming a smoker and then quitting, you can somehow reverse PFS?? (up to a degree of course)
I know for a fact that smoking affects dopamine levels, and I also know that propecia has some affect on dopamine levels. Its plausible to assume that maybe by taking up smoking for a period of time (lets assume you become a heavy smoker for a few months) and then by quitting it can somehow positively affect dopamine receptors or it can somehow “reset” the bodies response to dopamine. This is essentially a much more mild (and completely legal) version of the “heroin withdrawal cure” that I read about on here.

Anyways, I havent completely quit smoking yet, so I don’t know how effective this would be, and I don’t know if my condition is going to continue to improve, but in any case its something to consider.
