I mean, there are lots of people who would trade some drowsiness for their full POIS symptoms. And the drowsiness could be temporary. Yes, I agree--it could prove an important result. That is, if silodosin can prevent POIS by preventing ejaculation, then even if you decide that the side effects are too burdensome, we'll at least have learned that POIS is caused specifically by ejaculation, and not by orgasm per se!It's already been confirmed by Waldinger that POIS is caused by ejaculation- at least that seems to be the hypothesis he's going on. The benefit of this could be a much faster remedy for those who suffer with POIS instead of waiting years for the desensitization treatment. Perhaps the both could be done in tandem. This is what Waldinger says and it bothers me.

I have heard low dose naltroxene [sic] is good for these conditions. Has anyone tried it?
I am not against people who use nutmeg, I am sure that in small amounts it may be safe/benefit.
Hi All,I have joined to this forum 1.5 months ago, it is my first post and it's amazing to find you...I have pois for the last 15 years, the Strong symptoms come immediately post O' and the moderate ones are after being aroused [usually because morning erection and etc.] The most tough symptoms are the Chronic headaches,brain fog-causing me to be out of focus and memory problems and damaging my ability to think clearly, tieredness, breathing problems, Anxiety and the neck muscles that are killing me.Anyways, I am writing you today for telling you a story about bad and silly experience that I had last weekend.To make story short, I read in the forum about the positive affects that nutmeg has on pois, Therefore I decided to go and buy those nuts in the nearest market. I ate 1 whole nutmeg [It was so disgusting, bitter and even the look inside of that nut - it's like Capillaries and veins; What would'nt you do for elminating the bad condition you are at when you have POIS ??]So, after 4 hrs I started to feel very weird, totally high, my eyes were very red, I felt like my head is exploding from the pressure and it became worse, I had strong heartbeats, BP and the worst was an ongoing weird feeling of Anxiety.On that day my wife and I went for a dinner at my parents house; having a conversation with my uncle I realize that he talks and I am totally out, I do not have a clue what he was talking about and I do not remember even the sentence before, I was totally blackout. I told him that I am can't follow him and I feel bad, then we went to hospital, all checks were good and it took me 2 days to totally recover.Folks, Pls be careful when you using anything that might hurt you; we are totally suffering from pois and sometimes we may do mistakes like I did, pls take care of yourselves and learn from my story.I wish you all to be healthy,Yours,JanivBTW: I am not against people who use nutmeg, I am sure that in small amounts it may be safe/benefit.
Hi all,I am also a sufferer of POIS and as everyone else here, am rather disappointed that the medical community doesn't have a clue to this stuff, and Dr. Waldinger's theories being rather unconvincing.Recently I encountered the concept of mercury poisoning through amalgams in dental fillings. I did quite a bit of research on it and the symptoms do seem, in many ways similar to what many of POIS sufferers go through. And it does in a way coincide with Waldinger's theory that people become allergic to their our semen, or in other words, the immune system has an adverse response to semen in the system. Supposedly, mercury poisoning has been reported to cause in some cases auto-immunity. I'd like to ask how many of us have had dental amalgam fillings containing mercury?* Raise your hand * if you do, as sort of a poll.Best,AlphaQ

There must be millions of people around the world that have mercury amalgam fillings, many more I would assume, than the number of POIS victims in the world.So wereas we may all have mercury amalgam fillings, there are many more as well who also have them without sufering POIS.
There was a previous discussion of amalgam fillings on this forum at this link: http://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/index.php?topic=6576.685;wap2One of the members here, John21, got all his amalgams replaced but it failed to have any effects on his POIS.I do have 2 or 3 silver fillings which may be amalgam, but after doing some research it seems unlikely that they are the cause of my POIS since many many people have amalgam fillings and very few people have POIS. Also there are some members here with POIS who do not have amalgam fillings.

Also there are some members here with POIS who do not have amalgam fillings.The thing with amalgam fillings is that it doesn't have adverse effects on everybody but on certain people it does, and at times it's quite bad and causes symptoms related to autoimmunity (might be correlated to semen allergy). The severity of mercury poisoning is debatable, but there's definitely times where there's poisoning and it's affecting you in some way but not actually knowing it. I'm not saying that mercury toxicity and POIS are directly causal, but we shouldn't rule it out until we find someone people here that haven't had fillings at all.
It seems that Counterpoints previously stated that he has no amalgam fillings, but still has POIS. I do think finding more people with POIS but with no amalgams could be worth it.
