urano75 You are cured, as your treatment helps?regards , Kima
Regardless of sex, and just aggravated by sex? Definite yes to all of them = adrenal dysfunction to some degree, and possibly related blood sugar issues.You might want to take a salivar cortisol/DHEA test just to have a clue. Besides taking temps and blood pressure.Good luck.

Besides taking temps and blood pressure.Good luck.pretty much all the time, but it's aggravated following sex. also pois makes my blood sugar seem a little low sometimesand thanks for the tips!
So my question to all of you is: has anyone else tried going gluten and lactose free and did that affect your POIS symptoms?

I think that if one wants to solve POIS, paradoxically it's better to forget about POIS for awhile and look at all the other unbalanced things, and try to find a pattern. It's likely that while solving all the rest also POIS will go away in many cases.
hi guys, my syndrom is getting better after i use protein powder. It really helps, about 96%.. I should have tried it after i read, it was a little bit too late. I luckily coincidentally took a protein powder at the supermarket, drank it after ejaculation, and miracle happened....
Quote from: shen mue on 01/06/2013 07:19:23My POIS is not as bad as what others describe but still very annoying. I switched coffee with green tea the other day and two days alter I noticed that my ED is not anywhere near as bad ever since (libido still low, orgasms still weak). Also: I had a green tea right after POIS hit me the other day and my symptoms went down to 40-50% right away. Fenugreek used to help me (accidentally stumbled when looking for ways to improve libido.)Does fenugreek still help you? I've made a compilation of all of our fenugreek trials at our main forum so I want to add your trial to the rest. I've found that green tea potentiates fenugreek for me.If possible it'd be helpful if you could provide details like which symptoms it improved most, whether you took it before or after orgasm, how long the trial was, and how many orgasms you had during the period.

Quote from: fornicationDENIED2 on 17/05/2013 19:25:45I know, but I am in remission, zero diarrhea and little pain, that is, until I ejaculate. POIS triggers the diarrhea.More likely some consequence of orgasm triggers your IBD ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor

I've stopped taking fenugreek for the time being...I will be more accurate this time when I take it again and then get back to you.

Shen Mue,yes, don't overdo with investigations and don't get stressed about it. Gather the info, then make up your mind on how to move in health jungle :-)I'm not aware of any totally reliable blood tests to assess one's methylation status. Homocysteine, and possibly methylmalonic acid, might give a clue. Then there are the genetic testings to determine MTHFR polymorphism, which I've seen discussed here sometimes. I don't really know if testing histamine or glutathione would really shed a light on this... There are people here more expert in methylation than me. I would also be interested to learn if one can actually determine under/over-methylation from labs, directly or indirectly.Insufficient cortisol production is often correlated to hypoglycemia and sugar drops after meals. Adrenal dysfunction can also mean a mix of low-high cortisol during the day (salivar tests give a clue about it), so you might see a mixed behaviour. Also there are different degrees of adrenal fatigue/dysfunction. But then, there are other factors in play to control blood sugar management, such as insulin production and insulin resistance.As you have it handy, you might play a bit with a glucometer. Take tests AM fasting, then 30, 60 ,120 mins (or 45 and 90 mins if you want to spare strips and time) after each meal, for 5-7 consecutive days. Take multiple tests each time because I've seen these values fluctuating a lot, then average them out.Ideally, you do not want blood sugar to go over 140 and under 75-80 after a meal. If it goes over 140 consistently, either you are eating too many carbs, or there is something going on with your insulin (insufficient or resistance). If it goes under 75-80 repeatedly, there might be a reactive hypoglycemia possibly caused by insufficient cortisol. If you can't figure it out this way, you can take a Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) with both sugar and insulin measurements, and watch at their curves.If you will decide to go for a salivar cortisol/DHEA, stop adrenals-affecting supplementation (DHEA) at least 2 weeks before.I hope this helps.Andrea
