B_Jim I simply eat a lot of proteins during 24 hours after orgasm (and when i can the meal just before orgasm). No supplements.Meat, fish, vegetables, milk and cheese, almond/nuts/hazelnuts, eggs.Absolutely no sugar, candy, cake or soda. Few cereals (corn, rice but maybe oats is the best for low IG). I add some fats (coconut oil).

That's very interesting B_Jim, your protein approach is what has been most effective helping me to recover from POIS too!Lamb kebab meat seems to be the thing that works best for me, not sure if the chilli sauce also contributes to the positive effect.There is no science behind it, but I feel like my body is trying desperately to regain the fluids that have been lost, and in the process it is stealing nutrients from my brain, leading to the POIS symptoms. By giving my body the building blocks for what it wants, the symptoms seem reduced.
ratio between carbohydrates and proteins is the main factor. If you take a lot of proteins and a lot of carbs, the anti-POIS effect doestn't work.
Quote from: hurray link=topic=6576.msg198780#msg198780 date=1223313329IMPORTANT QUESTION (open to all): Before or around the time you developed POIS symptoms, had you used [btetracycline[/b], minocycline, or any other antibiotics?I had not used any antibiotics. However now that I think about it, the really seemed to start when I started in college. Around that time I remember having to get some shots to be allowed in? I don't remember exactly what they were for but I remember feeling ill and feverish right after.I have used probiotics after stumbling on an infomercial describing the effects of a deficiency of necessary intstinal bacteria. Initially I ot on a very high dose and the results of that(I was also taking a lot of enzymes) was a dramatic reduction in symptoms. When I tapered to a maintenance dose the results were not as effective though.Antibiotics kill these bacteria and they need to be replacd after.Pois seems to be an immune system problem so maybe innoculations can cause our immune systems to malfunction producing an autoimmune reaction to the chemical changes in our own body during orgasm attacking our systems as if a foreign invasion was present. This is beyond my scope of knowledge so I am making only a general supposition on this. I don't know if there is any real connection?
tetracycline[/b], minocycline, or any other antibiotics?
Good luck and thanks for this post.I'm just a little disappointed that when someone manage to heal he leave without helping others (not in this particular forum).I remember i have tried a iodine supplement 2 years ago without effect. But maybe the supplmeent wasn't good enough (it was a multi-vitamin + minerals and iodine.
I'm just a little disappointed that when someone manage to heal [POIS] he leave without helping others.
I'm not like that, and will share what I learn that helps me, in the hopes that it will help someone else.I will also request that this ex-POIS forum member post his experiences of recovery in his own words. Hopefully he will do that.
girlwind aka THYROID WOMAN, I share much of your enthusiasm, but I think it's important to differentiate between what is good for "overall health and libido" and POIS. The two don't necessarily go hand in hand. Thanks, and please don't take this negatively.
Okay, okay Demografx--When I say "libido" I mean both healthy available sexual energy AND post-orgasmic recuperative abilities... Capish? Sometimes it just takes too much time to SPELL OUT ALL the details when you're in hurry to write-up a posting. Also, I think what is good for overall ENDOCRINE health will most likely be good for POIS. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it! []
RE: Counterpoints and antibiotics question.Funny you should mention that, I was on tetracycline (mysteclin) around the time I got POIS. Antibiotics also figured in phases where POIS disappeared for me. Clindamycin + Clarithromycin where the 2 drugs concerned.I was very interested in Dr.Matt's (pharma matt was more appropriate) post a couple of months back on the marshall protocol. I was waiting for him to explain exactly why he was so convinced as to the connection for this treatment which was originally developed for sarcoidosis but which is now starting to be used for other conditions that have TH1 immune dysfunction. My thoughts at the time were, nice theory but not exactly practical. Its hard enough to explain POIS to a doctor let alone ask for prescriptions for benicar, minocycline, ciprofloxacin, Bactrim, etc, plus also wear dark glasses all the time for up to 2 yrs to undertake the marshall protocol.
