    Low estrogen and DHEA ?

    I'd suggest asking your doc to test you for Hashimoto's thyroiditis. If your body is producing antibodies to your thyroid gland, even though you levels are not yet low, it would explain the aches to some degree. Your symptoms do seem to match up to being hypothyroid, but your numbers suggest...

    Low estrogen and DHEA ?

    Your TSH looks good, but you seem like you have symptoms of Hashimoto's thyroiditis. That is, your body produces. anti thyroid antibodies that can accumulate in your joints and cause pain. you might want to ask your doc to check your free T 3 even though your TSH is not bad. Many with...

    Better with high free T or total T or both?

    another thing you could check up on is your sleep. Sleep apnea can also drive erythrocytosis. It may well be just you reaction to the T, but if there is doubt on your end, it would be good to know if you have apnea. In my case, clearly it drove the erythrocytosis with the T. Since getting my...

    In the search for libid, Started “”“””Addyi”””””

    Dr Khera has publicly stated they were the first to get approval from the FDA to do a study in men with Addyi. He also has said he doesn't think there is a lot of difference between men and women, regarding brain chemistry, as it relates to serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. He's probably...

    How damaging are prolonger erections (2-4 hours)?

    If you have a conversation with a doc who is trained in sexual medicine, they will tell you that not all erections are the same. Meaning there is a big difference between a hard but warm penis, vs. a cold hard penis. The difference is blood flow. If the penis is warm, there is still some blood...

    PT - 141 (Bremelanotide) for Improved Sex Drive (Libido) and Erections

    I am not planning on over use. Just more regular use. Branded Vyleesi, which is 1.75mg per dose, can be used up to 2 X per week, and 8 X per month.While the approval is for pre menapausal women, when dealing with brain horomones, we are not that much different than women. I am trying to see, if...

    PT - 141 (Bremelanotide) for Improved Sex Drive (Libido) and Erections

    Updating again my experience with compounded PT 141 or Bremelanotide from Empower. I had a very bad nausea event from Branded Vyleesi, including vomiting. I have not been that ill in a long time. But, this is hard to walk away from when you have as severe ED as I have, as the results when not...

    Botox for your sexual health.

    As an update. I gave myself a washout period from the Bremelanotide or PT 141, I took as branded Vyleesi. Extreme nausea, was the reason I quite taking the Vyleesi. It worked incredibly effectively otherwise. I also did get body aches, and sinus congestion. But the sexual response was nothing...

    Botox for your sexual health.

    I was wondering if you noticed any performance improvements at the 0.1 mg doses? The makers of branded Vyleesi claim not to use it repeated nights in a row and not more than 2 X per week, 8 X per month, but that's a much higher dose at 1.75 mg. I was hoping to try half that strength, but curious...

    Botox for your sexual health.

    Can I ask, what dose of PT 141 do you use?

    Botox for your sexual health.

    I did not know this, and attributed the additional length to just being effective at producing erections. And I have lost weight which helps too. However, I do think it has caused a longer "hang" even when not erect. it's really a great effect. Much more sensitivity, truly quick easy erections...

    Botox for your sexual health.

    Missed your thoughts about trying low dose Pt 141. I used it three times, with incredibly good results and only a little nausea that was very mild, and only lasted about 20 minutes. then the 4th time I tried it, the nausea was severe. Upchucking several times and miserable. Had to have my doc...

    Botox for your sexual health.

    I wanted to give an update on the botox treatments. So I have now had three treatments. The first one worked extremely well. lasted months, and gradually began to lose benefit. Exactly what my doc informed me of, and what was expected. It was truly a game changer. However, for some reason, my...

    Botox for your sexual health.

    Sorry I didn't see the above questions regarding P shots until now. A P shot is an activated platelet/growth factor injection. the doctors who do this, will draw a large tube of blood from you, put it in multiple tubes, and spin it down in a high speed centrifuge. It's not a lot of blood, just...
