Hey friends,
I promised back in May to tell you about my experiment going to taking Vit-D. Let’s get things out of the way: what works for me now, did not work me 4 years ago, anything that usually increased libido or T level back in healthy men backfired in my case 4-5 years ago. My main point is that over time the things that I was not able to handle, now I can. So, that might apply to you.
Overall my experience has been great, Libido wise. My plan was to take a 5000IU everyday. The only “problem” is that after a while, a week or so, I become overly horny. I don’t like that because I have CPPS. And the more I have sex/masturbate the more i have pain. So I now take it only when I meet a girl.
The only other thing I changed, is SUPER important. I started reading ingredients on everything from food to shampoo and soaps, and whenever I see something estrogenic I throw it out immediately. My sensitivies to these triggers (and i bet yours too) is part of the reason why the recovery has taken so long and unpleasant.
I can say I am almost 90%. II am a happy guy. No numbness, good libido, that is all I need. Being aroused as much as pre-fin is not something I seek.
I need to write a longer post about how I went from having zero life, living a daily nightmare, to having an almost normal life, to me is nothing short of a recovery. I think it might take a couple of more years to get back to 95% perhaps, but really if things remain where I am at since May, that would be awesome. I even managed to have sex without Viagra and with a condom on last month, with no problem. PFS has caused a premature ejaculation for me, Viagra an Cialis help a great deal. But even that has improved substantially.
Over the last year, my PFS days happened about 30% of my time, since May I did have a 10% ratio of PFS inconvenience, nothing too dramatic.
If this sticks I will write a recovery thread. I don’t want to be too optimistic, but really the past year was good, and Vit D + the things I avoid have been life savers.
Other things I have done last year:
- cut the carbs
-exercise (either cardio or weights, whatever you can handle. Swimming helped) - GET A GIRL. Don’t stay alone. Especially if you can find a mildly attractive girl. Let her do things that usually turn you on. To me it is use it or lose it to some extent. And I was surprised to how much I can get horny when being with a girl that does the things I like, even on days when I was nervous that I have no libido. The more you get horny the longer this horniness sticks around.
Does that sound like a recovery for you? Or you wouldn’t be happy until you are 100% free of any and all sx?
I am writing this only because I care about you and did not want to wait another year before giving you good news. To me 90 and 95% are not all that different.
I will continue visiting this forum from time to time, to see if there is something that will get me back to 100% naturally, without much risk. If I can resolve PE that would be amazing.
cheers
