HelloFellow sufferers, I am happy to find you. (as sadistic as it sounds ).I am from another community that has been sharing information on POIS (or what we have called Sexual Exhaustion) for 5 years and has 1600 members. The evidence of existence our groups as separate for so long time proves the point that we are not easy to find online. There are many, many others like us. I know that for a fact!We haven’t got a cure (yet). But hopefully we can draw doctors’ attention to research us and the data we have gathered. We need to show that this condition is extremely serious – I would trade my disorder for some milder form of cancer anytime! I see the potential of Dr. Waldinger’s last paper as a tool to create awareness, even though I totally disagree with his findings. It generated news on regular media and helped me to find you!Let’s get acquainted and start sharing information and hopefully start group efforts, because our pursuits as individuals have proven to be unfruitful.Let’s get well!Research of sexual exhaustion/dysfunction and other biochemical/deficiency diseases: http://recover.forumup.org/
Has anyone here tried consuming sweet potatoes to counteract POIS? This is one food that I had previously found a correlated with fewer symptoms. Sweet potatos are well known for their anti-inflammatory properties. This week I had an NE with resulting minor POIS symptoms. A few days into it I remembered this food and ate a bunch (the orange type) and the next day symptoms were gone. There are other possible reasons: I started taking some herbal prostate pills, and I also did some icing with a cold pack on the front pelvic area. I'm thinking that something in this mix helped me. Sweet potatoes would be an easy thing for others to try against inflammation if that is in fact our enemy.I thought we had discussed sweet potatoes in the past but my search for the posts came up rather dry.
I wanted to mention this for people who have POIS and still want to have a pretty active sex life.Now I have a girlfriend (woot!) and because of the development of my pubococcygeus myscle from practicing my abstinence technique for so long, we can enjoy quite a bit of intimacy without me having to orgasm. Suffice it to say you can more then please a woman and by clenching your pubococcygeus muscle as you are doing so, or if you feel like you are going to orgasm, still have a pretty good sex life =)

Later in the evening, I decided to try John21's idea: I ate two whole (microwaved) sweet potatoes, including the skins. When I woke up the next morning, I was mostly symptom-free, and this lasted throughout the day. I'd estimate that it was about an 80% reduction of the symptoms--definitely very significant!So, I'll try it again next time I O, and we'll see if this is repeatable for me. But it may be something that others want to try as well.

Yet the semen exists and is retained. I think hurray indicated that in those cases where there was not pre-C at all, he had no POIS, so a similar situation.So your case, and I'm sure others, have symptoms even without the least of obvious fluid movement. So what's going on? Is the pituitary secreting something anyways, or some other secretion? Why does this effect you and not me for instance?On the other forum, I'd like to create work groups to attack particular tasks such as these? It seems that some of the questions are impossible to answer...... are they? Maybe it would take a year, or two. How long does desensitization take again?The work groups wouldn't be chats! They'd be task oriented work-groups. Do we have it in us. Even I (who would like to give it a try) am not sure. But we HAVE done a lot without much focus.

Masturbating just up to.... and often? Or would that make it worse?

I used to masturbate at the computer in a C-shaped position and had post orgasmic illness symptons pretty much like described here. It healed pretty fast when I changed to masturbating in a straight _ shaped position on my back on the bed, best results came without any pillow and a nicely hard mattress.
