Dr. Waldinger's term, "allergy" has never sat right with me.
Is this a new article or is it a review of the publication of dr. Waldinger? It's from Nature. Written by Suzanne J. Farley. http://www.nature.com/nrurol/journal/v8/n3/full/nrurol.2011.17.htmlIf it's new? Does anyone has an account?
Quote from: Animus on 29/05/2011 19:25:57Can anyone answer these questions? does anyone else wonder them too? 1. Are there any other known allergies that last for 7 days after exposure and have similar symptoms?2. Why don't women with semen allergies react in the same way as men with POIS?I'm not saying you could answer them, but maybe speculate... Seeing the wheal size photographs are convincing in support of the allergy theory.You can't compare the female body with the male body. The male urethra and the vas deferens are not the same as oviduct. And women with semen allergy have a few symptoms that are the same as POIS.

This makes intuitive sense, especially given the acidic properties of womens' bodies in those areas that may alter the allergens (ie render them harmless). When within a man, proteins and whatnot in the semen remain in their basic environment (semen), but who knows how they get altered perhaps even denatured when thrown into an acidic environment. It might drastically change the way these allergens are dealt with by our immune system. Not to mention, maybe all these women are just not allergic to what we are allergic to in the semen...I wonder if girlwind might have experienced this and have more information.

And who knows what effect the ova have on the semen in relation with an allergy. The ova is a womans own liquid. So that could have another effect when a POIS-patient comes in contact with the ova of a woman during sex.

Hyper-reactive immune response sounds much better!

But you can't take your sperm count in your head! LOLI was not taking my sperm count in my head. I was sensing a legitimate biological feeling, which I had grown attuned to and aware of. Perhaps the cause of that feeling is unknown, and "illusory" as demo has suggested. However, it is legitimate, and has a legitimate cause. Reflecting on my earlier posts, I hedged a little more than I should have about "subjective" and "feeling". After 35 years of this, it's way more than "illusory".When I "feel" semen is low (early regeneration), the ejaculate is....LOW VOLUME.When I "feel" semen is high (late stage regen), the ejaculate is.....HIGH VOLUME.And no, I didn't use a measuring cup. Just trust me, ok? [] The above data have been independently verified by Bernie L. Madoff, Butner Correctional Facility, NC.

Animus, thank you! I left out that most important part, i.e., my POIS severity goes up and down in direct proportion to "semen fullness" (or lack of same)!
Daveman, I feel badly about our overposting on regen, but I honestly feel this is going somewhere and NOT round in circles. It feels like a tiny piece of the puzzle is ADDED each time we discuss this. But I know it must appear tedious to you and some others. Many thanks for your patience.
