Pelvic Floor Theory (my opinion)

General Discussion
#42

But some say so.
By the way, has anyone asked for an unnecessary comment?

I also think all this is related to the pelvic floor.
Please have a look at this article:

Actually I don’t understand why Dr. Goldstein (who is one of the authors of the article) usually doesn’t mention this to PFS patients.
So:

  1. Low allo
  2. Anxiety
  3. Pelvic floor spasms / high tone (often going unnoticed)
  4. Pudendal artery carrying less blood / pudendal nerve neuropathy
  5. ED / low sensation, more anxiety, etc.

I haven’t seen any claims that DCT is a cure on this forum, just that it’s helpful. (It certainly has been for me).

I think comments about things “not being a cure” this might lead ppl to disregard interventions that could improve their health. Exercise has very low risks of side effects, so I’d encourage more ppl to look into these kinds of treatments rather than random supplements.

Maybe not here, but in PSSD Forum or other ones.
I’m just saying my experience.
Pelvic floor could be a part of the puzzle for some of us but can not explain all the symptoms alone.
That’s it.

My erection improves when I fill my lungs with air, and my diaphragm descends, blocking the venous leakage.

Maybe there is some kind of atrophy in the pelvic floor muscles, or something that can be improved by some kind of muscle exercise?

DCT I guess, and increasing androgens.
