High histamine = high libido

[Roccc]

I found that estrogen itself doesn't increase libido. It increases histamine and histamine increases libido. Anyone know why histamine increases libido?

By the way, high histamine = LOW serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline.

Where did you find this?

High histamine = Undermethylation = High libido

I did. Can't find anything that isn't a "natural health" website.

It sounds like one of those conditions naturopaths treat, like "detoxification", and has such broad symptoms nearly anyone can go "wow I have this!". It's also treated with vitamins, not one vitamin, but a bunch of them. One vitamin treating a condition is usually because it's a deficiency, which is clinically recognized such as scurvy, beriberi, or pernicious anemia.

So if you have a legitimate source such as a PUBMED link I'll be happy to look at it. Until then it's probably pseudoscience.

I didn't say i have under or over methylation. It is known thing! Undermethylation = High libido. but i wonder why?

I understand you didn't say you have it.

I don't think it is a thing for all the reasons I have stated before. There isn't much other than naturopath's who claim it is a thing.

I may be wrong but until it's shown with evidence I'd consider it to be fictitious.

So someone with allergy problems should have a high libido? Doesn't add up.

So someone with allergy problems should have a high libido? Doesn't add up.

Yes, this thread is three years old...but... I've had seasonal allergies all my life and I recall a time...many years ago, when, during spring, the pollen was super high...and I was horny and hard all the time. I was a courier, driving around all day, and every woman I'd see got me hot and bothered. My wife, then, was a once a week woman, and I spent a lot of time masturbating. So, yes, high histamine does equal high libido and, for me, excellent erectile function. Now, I've spent years doing everything I can to reduce histamine b/c of high levels making me crazy(I have bipolar illness) and screwing up my sleep...and my dick is dead in the water.

My brother and I have always had allergies, we are also known for unusually high libidos. I always sneeze at night for some reason through all four seasons.

You sound like me! Year round inhalant allergies. I read many of your posts on T-Nation. Finally meet. As I wrote, I'm now wondering if my focus on reducing histamine, nutritionally, has negatively impacted libido & erectile function. Even when I was on daily 30 mg IM Test E, poor erectile function. Maybe I've done too good a job of suppressing brain histamine. I'm considering a trial of l-histidine, taking it sublingually. My urologist is excellent but I'm the problem patient; the one that challenges a doctor.

Did you try the histadine?

You just make a claim and then tell people to research it themselves? Please contribute more constructively and include a link to the research/article that you read since you already have it. It would be appreciated.

Histamine - a chemical found in some of the body's cells - causes many of the symptoms of allergies, such as a runny nose or sneezing. When a person is allergic to a particular substance, such as a food or dust, the immune system mistakenly believes that this usually harmless substance is actually harmful to the body.

I take an allegra every day from February thru August and my libido is fine.

Did you try the histadine?

I did. Felt overall worse and I only tried it for a couple of days. I'm now up to 150 mcg liothyronine(self-medicating for bipolar depression) and IM B12(self-medicating), 1000 mcg, daily. B12 raises histamine. My endurance has improved. Don't feel as tired. Lost 7 pounds. (155 to 148) Mood is better from thyroid and B12. Libido is now quite strong but no corresponding erectile function. With cellular thyroid resistance I'll likely need to gradually increase thyroid. Also doing 20 mg IM, Test E, EOD. My urologist and I discussed an rx for PT-141. I might try it.
