John21 - would you say that your symptoms have disappeared with the elimination of grains, milk products and sugars in your diet? And did you say that you had temporary relief with spinach, but that went away?
Has anyone here suddenly felt better after taking antibiotics?
Hello, This article was published just 2 days ago and reveals an incredible story of a patient who suffered from typical POIS symptoms (referred to here as Benign Coital headache) for 27 years. His syndrome miraculously disappeared when his partner fell pregnant, and reappeared following the birth. Long term his POIS was effectively cured with Norethisterone 5mg (a progestogen). Here is the link to the article: Dexter, S (2010), Benign coital headache relieved by partner’s pregnancies with implications for future treatment, British medical Journal Case Reports 2010; doi:10.1136/bcr.10.2009.2359http://casereports.bmj.com/content/2010/bcr.10.2009.2359.shortI hope this helps.
Wow!! That's wild!

Thank you very much, Ms. Marnia Robinson for including our POIS Forum and video in your "Psychology Today" Blog!Ms. Robinson, a Member/Friend of this Forum, wrote today: "As promised, here's the "Psychology Today" post that mentions POIS" : The Right Masturbation Advicehttp://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/cupids-poisoned-arrow/201002/the-right-masturbation-advice
this forum/topic is all over the palce [sic]. Is there not a new forum were we should start using so we can organise discussions in topics [<<mod edit - question or statement?]
I think the article is pretty good overall, but I was not so sure about her statement about us saying that "Its founder also mentioned that a common denominator of nearly all the sufferers is very frequent masturbation earlier in life."I realize that 'very frequent masturbation earlier in life' could be the case with a number of the people on our forum, but I think that saying "nearly all of the sufferers" is a misrepresentation. Perhaps saying "many" could be accurate, but not "nearly all." I think that there may be a number of different causes for POIS, and to point almost univocally in the direction of over-masturbation can distort the overall picture and make research into the base causes more difficult. It makes it sound like POIS results primarily from unwise sexual choices (which I realize is Ms. Robinson's specialty and focus), rather than from neurochemical imbalance or hormone/vitamin deficiency (i.e. factors which may be completely unrelated to chosen sexual practices). At the very least, speaking in terms of myself, I can say that over-masturbation was not part of my own experience earlier in life, and so I don't think that it would the source of my POIS. Demografx, I realize that she attributes the "nearly all" statement to you, but perhaps she misquoted or misunderstood you.

Thanks for the heads-up, Guthrie. I have revised the language in my post to reflect your concerns. That article, remember, was about re-thinking what we tell kids. Right now the message is "the more the better," which will be very bad advice for those with particularly sensitive brains.
