Quote from: Finally on 18/11/2008 05:13:27I think I had POIS symptoms after a roller coaster ride once, but then again my girlfriend was sitting on my lap []Now this requires some serious science: take a roller coaster ride again with said female removed. If symptoms persist, try bumper cars or boat rides!

...I have used an herbal mixture of Maca (seems most effective) Yohimbe and Horney Goat Weed over the last 3 weeks that has been more successful than anything I have tried in the last 30 years...
Finally...thank you.I hate to be a party pooper, but the following article talks about some serious risks and side effects of Maca and Yohimbe and advises to see a medical professional when taking them:http://www.myfittribe.com/articles/20080716/maca-and-yohimbe.html
I just want to respond to to the Fenugreek comment some people made. I went and bought some this week, and tried it this weekend. Took one friday night and one on saturday morning after 'some action' I did feel much better than I usually do. Normally i feel very drained, with an almost headachy feel inside my head for a day or two after.. Very down generally. This time i did not have any strange feeling in my head, and did not feel as 'drained'. I wasnt bouncing off the walls, but I could tell that I was doing much much better than usual. By sunday, i felt 100% - so this stuff def helps - FOR ME. I bought Solgar (very expensive - but a top quality product) as most other brands are so hit and miss with this sort of thing.Ill def keep experimenting with it. I believe a 'cure' is out there. I don't think im necessarily sick, just that I get depleted from whatever hormone or chemical after sex. Whether it be an adrenal or brain issue, I think I just need to find that one herb or supplement that's going to replenish me quicker than I can by myself. Other supplements that have helped me out too is your typical flu medication (Vitamin C, synephedrine, asprin, antihistamine) those combo fizzys. They make me feel better, and I might take one every once in a while.
MACA IS NOT SO BAD, YOHIMBE MORE RISKY
...Maybe about a month ago a forum member here(sorry I can't remember who it was) mentioned an article they saw on yahoo! about horny goat weed. The Article stated that Italian researchers found a PDE-5 inhibitory effect from horny goats weed. Viagra, Levita, and cialis are PDE-5 inhibitors. Consequently, they are going to make an engineered version of the plant and sell it as an herbal viagra that is just as effective as the real thing.
INTERESTING (and humorous) NOTE FROM MY PHARMACOLOGY-LAWYER FRIEND...there is a natural product which is touted to be a natural Viagra. I'm not making the name up. Italian scientists have extracted the active ingredient and claim that in clinical trials it is as effective as Viagra, et al. It is also, allegedly, an herb which is effective for treating artherosclerosis and allergies. It's called Horny Goat Weed [translation from the Chinese]. There was an article about the Italian clinical trials on Yahoo last week. The active ingredient does have a similar effect to the PDE5 inhibitors.
HEY DEMO--WHO NEEDS A DEALER or A DOCTOR. MAYBE HE HAS THE ANSWER TO POIS!
IMPORTANT UPDATE:High cortisol, or possibly wild cortisol fluctuations, are extremely plausible explanations for many cases of POIS on this forum......Our symptoms -- lack of concentration, social anxiety, lack of creativity, etc. -- are characteristic of high cortisol...
It is still possible that beta blockers cause depression in some cases, cautions psychiatrist Stuart C. Yudofsky of Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. Beta blockers are known to affect serotonin, a brain chemical that may be associated with depression, he says.
Finally....what brand of Horny Goat Weed are you using....what dose?
