Today is the first day I've experienced POIS in quite a while. I'm just so fed up with it. The longer you wait without having an orgasm, the more "angrier" you are, and if you do orgasm, the "angrier" you are. It's like a double-edged sword.I'm going to try one of the techniques that I tried a couple months ago. That is doing handstands for long periods of time, say 10 handstands for 1 minute each. I distinctly remember doing this and I literally felt the POIS pain exit my head. I was totally clear in the head but the problem was that I think my chest received the pain. It felt like my chest was going to explode. Even though with all of that chest pain, I managed to sleep the best night of my life that I shared with POIS. Totally clear headed. If I manage to do this again, and the same thing happens, I really wouldn't know what to say. It's like something leaving your head and going to your chest area? Is it an air bubble? Wtfudge? I'm literally thinking about stabbing my chest area where I feel the pain to kill the POIS... Or maybe I am just going crazy. I will message later.

GoingCrazy, you probably know this already but claritin works best if taken about an hour or 30 minutes before an orgasm.

The difference is spectacular. If you take them only after the O. you are going to have a short-term relief, but if you take them before, you are going to notice a big difference/ or no POIS!!.
Unless someone could tell me why I would feel symptoms of being allergic to semen only in my brain.

I do not know if this could serve as an answer; but every time when i had an ejaculation in the past i used to feel a "weird feeling" on my head. I felt exactly the same feeling on my head at the moment they were injecting my own semen- dilluted concentration of course- on the skin p- test. That was my 100% confirmation that i am reacting against my semen -(probably when it contacts the blood barrier?).

That was my 100% confirmation that i am reacting against my semen -(probably when it contacts the blood barrier?).Possibly because histamine is such a "swiss army knife" compound in the body. Have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histamine"[Histamine is]...involved in local immune responses as well as regulating physiological function in the gut and acting as a neurotransmitter". I think this all comes down to the "flight/fight" response and evolutionary biology. I suspect that an allergic reaction post orgasm is the exact wrong time to have it as an orgasm involves so many chemical reactions in the brain, some of them controlled by histamine receptors which regulate neural transmitter release. So instead of a really pleasurable post-O bliss that I'm told other people get, we get this headache, fuzzy feeling and dread. Of all the things you could have an allergic response to, seminal fluid is very unlikely but it doesn't seem to lead to infertility. So even something as seemingly ridiculous (and it does seem nuts) as a semen allergy could be passed on from generation to generation without it being properly diagnosed or cured. I don't believe we're the first people with POIS, just the first who have labelled it and are trying to analyse it in medical terms.
you've confused me because at first you said "a couple of days after my O's, I now feel fantastic", and than down below you've stated, "I had an O yesterday... and despite the T my POIS is pretty bad today". Are you saying that it doesn't work immediately after an "O" but in the days following?
I'd like to report a MAJOR Breakthrough.For the last 6 months I've had Constant POIS. This basically means that my POIS was at 100% in days following sexual activity. In all other days, days where most of ya'll would feel good, I would still have 50% POIS. It never went away.Well I have Finally found a TREATMENT for my Constant POIS. That treatment is Testosterone Replacement Therapy. A couple days after my O's, I now feel fantastic. --------------------------------------------------------------------That's the big news. Now I feel as if I need to add some disclaimers:I tried both Testosterone in pill form and gel form. The pill form tells your body to produce more T, the gel form introduces new T to your body and tells your body to produce no T. I tried both forms and only had success with the Gel (same as the patch). Next, Testosterone makes you horny. Just plain and simple, if you take too much you WILL NOT be able to resist masturbating/sex. If you are masturbating every other day, then the Testosterone will not appear to be working. I tried Testosterone 3 months back (on Demo's advice), but I didn't think it worked because I was masturbating too frequently. This time around, I carefully adjust my dose of Testosterone, so that if I feel too horny I fight the urges hard and take a smaller dose the next day. Next, the Testosterone took 3 weeks to begin working. My interpretation of this is that within a week, you can feel more T in your system. But only after 3 weeks does the biofeedback cycle kick in, and your own body's T production stop. I'm not sure this is the reason, but it's my best guess.I have only been experimenting with T and feeling good on it for 1 week (4 wks taking it less 3 wks lead time). So I don't yet know if this treatment will lose its efficacy within a few weeks /months. Also, along those same lines, I don't yet know if the treatment will shorten my bad POIS period in the days following the O. All I can say is that I had an O yesterday, and despite the T, my POIS is pretty bad today.Also I thought that I'd mention that Niacin has never really worked well for me. I'm interested to try it in conjunction with the T, but I haven't yet. I want to thank Demo for urging me to try T. If not for him I never would have found this amazing treatment. I think there are a few other forum members that have also tried Testosterone and found relief. PS. This isn't really related to this post, but I saw a top allergist 2 weeks ago, who performed a skinprick test on me, using a very fresh sample, and he concluded that I am not allergic. Note: He didn't conclude that I don't have POIS, he just concluded that I don't have an allergy. The only issue slightly confounding the results is that the doctor refused to give me an intradermal test. #1 - I brought in my own sample so he said he couldn't inject me with something that wasn't sterile. and #2 - he said there would be no reason an intradermal test, in this instance, would have different results than a skinprick. I know some of you may disagree. I'm undecided on that. My girlfriend, a doctor, spent time researching this and whole-heartedly agrees with him. So who knows. So if you suffer from constant POIS, do yourself a favor and give it a try. My Testosterone is not expensive, and also you don't necessarily have to go to an endocrinologist to get it. My Primary prescribes is to me. Lastly, in order to know for sure if the TRT is helping me, or something else is, I've cut out my daily multivitamin, my vitamin D, vitamin C, my slit treatments, my 24-hr nsaid i was taking, the fenugreek, etc. But there's always a small chance, given that I've only had a week of relief, that my new found good feeling is due to something entirely different than the T. It's highly unlikely, but it's ofcourse a possibility. If that's the case i will update the forum as soon as I know, or even suspect it to be the case. For now though, I'm looking forward to reconnecting with friends, excelling at work, and enjoying life. All the best everyone. -Daniel.
B_Daniel - It's really good to read of another person on here who is over the moon with success from a treatment/therapy.I have a couple of questions for you. A. You said 'Testosterone in pill form - tells your body to produce more T'. I think you are mistaken here. Adding in external T does not stimulate your gonads to produce more. What were you on here...Andriol?B. What mg dosage are you taking currently in gel form per week?I've been on T a number of years, and I think my receptors are not as sensitive to it as they once were. I don't get as horny as I used to (in fact I am having trouble now), or the appetite or the energy + strength boost and I have upped the dosage. I'm on 2 Primoteston shots a month (500mg) and I am still below the average in pathology tests. I mentioned here before in a post how the time I felt wonderful and my tests showed high T levels at that time...however strangely it was not due to T but another drug.C. What levels are showing on your path tests..are you in the middle or in the top 1/3 for your age group?It does help me, without a doubt, but alas I can't rave about it like you + demo can unfortunately (so there are other issues going on for me).I see there are a few posts lately talking about histamine. I can't remember ever getting an abnormal reading for this on any on my past path tests. what I did score high on though was homocysteine and Immunoglobulin G (elevated levels are associated with allergy and I was in top 0.2% of population). Anti-histamines like Zantec have helped me a bit with brain fog.
