Quote from: B_Jim on 18/01/2010 07:29:29Welcome Itsmebutwho?. You know, there are 50-60 old men starting to have Pois symptoms after intercourses. So, talking over-masturbation is not correct. Dispite a difference between masturbation and sexual intercourse is possible. And stopping ejaculation will never be a therapy. It's just avoiding symptoms. We want to return to a normal sexual life, not abstinence for life. Your symptoms are close to mine (especially underweight, myokymia...).--I think itchings and scratchings during Pois days might be a sign that endorphins are involved. Very interesting article :QuoteEndorphins and enkephalins are important opioid neurotransmitters in the CNS that mediate the sensation of itch. Although morphine alleviates pain, it aggravates itch, as itch and pain share common neurological pathways. The central elicitation of itch by morphine results from binding to opioid receptors and this binding may mimic normal physiological binding of endorphins and enkephakins at these receptor sites. Naloxone, an opioid antagonist, has been found to reduce histamine-provoked itch. I think it might be the best explanation for immediate or early Pois symptoms.--Hazey, in the past I felt normal between good between cycles. Now, I'm sensible to stress.I 100% agree - this 'over-masturbation' term is not correct at all, its total rubbish, because the majority of men can masturbate alot and never get POIS. It maybe a case of 'how' you do it rather than how much.A full recovery is possible despite how much masturbating you have done in the past, its a case 'unwinding' some the tightness that has been accumulated over a life time of stress.I also agree with the 'itch' analysis.When I was recovering from POIS I noticed one of my testicles felt 'tickly', like I just wanted to scratch it,but the itch was too internal and out of reach,the although the tickle sensation felt good it would alternate between'fearful' feelings, like I was about to feel pain, which would cause me to lock my hip muscles, in case I felt a zap of pain.Over time I learnt how to relax and stay released through these feelings getting rid of the 'tickle' and POIS.

Quote from: demografx on 18/01/2010 22:19:35B_Jim, maybe the article you posted explains my extremely unusual fingertips' sensations during POIS? (It was very difficult reading for me, highly technical).Yes, it's possible. Do you think testosterone or stimulant improve this symptom ?
B_Jim, maybe the article you posted explains my extremely unusual fingertips' sensations during POIS? (It was very difficult reading for me, highly technical).
demo, i see a pattern of 1st posts from new forum members. they usually contain quite a bit of background info and a good description of pois. maybe we should be presenting doctors with a collection of these posts, i think they portray the essence of this disease.
I think Pois is linked to low endorphin levels.) Wiki give some remedies : borage oil, bacon (=>Thisforumrocks !!) ...(bacon, cheese,egg sandwich ; cysteine amino acid )(oxygen!!! => Demo/Thisforumrocks !!)Benzodiazepines , B6 ... !!!!I will have a look later.Anyway I don't find the link with testosterone.
Here is something I have not seen discussed.... ORAL health, mine is very bad for many years.... and I always wonder if that might be part of this whole thing?No teeth cleaning for 20+ yrs! I have bad breathe, and my mouth is always pasty....Thoughts?PS.
Hi Guys I have been very busy and not online for a while. But I have NOT been busy with sex! I am actually trying an experiment. I have completely stopped having sex for 2 months now.
B. THE CHEMICAL COCKTAILDr. George A. Bubenik, M.D., of the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada:Yawns seem to be caused by the same chemical compounds (neurotransmitters) in the brain that effect emotions, mood, appetite and more - serotonin, dopamine, glutamic acid and nitric oxide. The more of these compounds activated in the brain, the greater the frequency of yawns. Conversely, a greater presence in the brain of opiate neurotransmitters such as endorphins, the less the frequency of yawns.
