Have a look. Authors of paper 1 used mifepristone to treat symptoms.
If you’re reading this, please help me get in touch with the authors if there’s any way you can assist.

I have also been able to use mifepristone to induce a minor recovery.
However, it doesnt seem like the ‘cure’. Atleast the trial i performed.

Trial was 600-800 mg over 10 days. Erections improved 3 weeks post trial. No other or insignificant other improvements.
Did another trial 6 months later with no discernable benefit.
