I've added some things, added things are green:POIS catecholamines theory
Deloun:Intrigued by the connection between catecholamines and POIS that you present although I am not sure I understand the whole story. (Over)simplified view would probably be that catecholamines are lost with semen. Then body is short of dopamine and adrenaline.What strikes a chord with me is that I do feel that I have a dopamine shortage during POIS. Not much scientific backing for this except the book/movie "Awakenings". Oliver Sachs there realizes that certain catatonic patients are dopamine deprived. He theorizes they feel like they have no will from inside themselves even though they can react to outside stimuli. For instance, the patients come alive (sort of) to catch a tennis ball thrown at them. This is how I feel during POIS plus I become quite good at catching tennisballs, not kidding.
Actually I'm feeling much better right now, since I began that cortisol treatment.
Has anybody tried 5 hour energy? I would say it releives a bit of the pois, i tried some yesterday, but only a couple sips not even half of the bottle.

Unless I see real blood test results, done in a reputable lab, from this patient I'd ignore it. Sorry to be so dismissive but I've had experience with these false sirens before."

If I have to pick btwn Michael's PERSONAL EXPERIENCE of healing himself, and your know-it-all endo doctor's knee jerk opinion, that's an easy choice for me.
Why would Michael LIE and make up ALL that information.
Also, demografx, you might want to mention Cushings, adrenocortical carcinoma, and pheochromocytoma, to your endocrinologist. These problems can lower prolactin, and testosterone. And they are somewhat consistent with your history.

I don't think he's lying too. However I'd like to know to which hormones he's referring. We found studies saying that saliva tests for cortisol were acurate, so maybe he's referring to saliva tests for testosterone or other hormones than cortisol ?I was planning to do several tests from differents labs at the same time to compare results.

concencentration of hormones in saliva is very weak : that's why it can be inaccurate.
