I talked on the phone with Stomper for an hour tonight. There were more details posted to his thread here: solvepfs.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1449&start=10
But here is what I learned. His story is more similar to mine than any others I have read as far as how he crashed, his symptoms, and all of the different meds he has tried. His libido was his biggest issue and at zero. It is now at 90-95%.
Started with Diet/Gut Protocol
-2 day water fast.
-Only ate Meat, veggies, eggs (12 per day), avocados. No fruits, no sugars
-Ate Fermented foods with every meal (beets, Kimchi, Sauerkraut) + probiotics
-3 Months in he added nuts.
-Continued for 8 months
-At this point, he did his first stool analysis and his doctor said it was the best she had every seen. He still was not really feeling a ton better though.
He then added progesterone cream, 1 pump (20-25mg) per day.
3 weeks later he started 12.5mcg T3. He would take it for 4 weeks, and be off for 2-3 weeks. He cycled like this for around 6 months. Slowly was feeling better.
6 months later he started adding in a rotation of CD Nuts style test boosters. Every day you rotate the following: Yohimbe, Pine Pollen, Togkat Ali, Ant Extract, Tribulus. The tribulus he takes every other day.
He also lifted heavy weights throughout the whole recovery.
