 mellivora "Below" is my re-post off of the pois center

in relation to the sperm regeneration question.  This 5 day sperm regeneration period is the time that it takes for the final conversion of sperm in the epididymis.  This is the most important part, because it is the part that is triggered by sperm loss/ejaculation.  when we ejaculate and lose sperm, the sperm that have been constantly produced and maturing over the last two and half months are sent to the epididymis.  There is a testosterone spike that corresponds with the maturation of the sperm in the epididymis, the testies produce increased amounts of testosterone which in turn cause the maturation process to occur.  A member of the NSF purchased a article on testosterone levels after ejaculation probably about a year ago.  it shows that after ejaculation the loss of the small amount of matured sperm from the epididymis causes testosterone levels to rise from the normal baseline for 7 days, once the small amount of mature sperm are replaced on day 7 testosterone levels fall back to baseline rapidly by day 8.  so on day 7 the total testosterone spike from baseline has returned to normal.  From days 0-5 there is a slow gradual increase in testostrone, from day 6-7 there is a huge spike in testosterone, it is believed that this spike pushes testosterone levels past the threshold of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and turns the entire process off.  In the article it said that everybody has this 7 day cycle.  It also states that if you have an ejaculation before the end of this 7 day cycle the cycle will just start over again and will last for another 7 days.  If you dont wait 7 days between every ejaculation you will be in the beginning of this cycle continuously.   This is the reason in the past that I have talked about one of the neuro-endocrine chemicals involved with the process of sperm regeneration being the culprit for an immunological reaction.  this would make much more sense that this antigen that is causing an immune reaction is continues during this week long process than just a single exposure to something like your own semen lasting 7 days. 

the article is called "A research of on the relationship between ejaculation and serum testosterone level in men"

There a wiki-answer page about the debate ejaculation-testosterone :
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Does_masturbating_decrease_testosterone_level

Many scientist types seem to agree that testosterone levels drop temporarily after ejaculation, but that seems to be very short-term.

But it don't gives the sources.

Check this paper, I'll add it to the references on poiscenter

"A research on the relationship between ejaculation and serum testosterone level in men"
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12659241

- 7 days...sounds like a familiar period of time...


Also interesting - observations on abstinence and testosterone level:
http://www.reuniting.info/node/2212

I have the full text if you want it and i believe there are pictures of the 7 day cycle graph posted earlier by me on the study and also step by step explanations of the graph.  I believe animus also made a custom graph of better quality than the one I posted

Sumatriptan is structurally similar to serotonin (5HT), and is a 5-HT (types 5-HT1D and 5-HT1B[7]) agonist. The specific receptor subtypes it activates are present on the cranial arteries and veins. Acting as an agonist at these receptors, Sumatriptan reduces the vascular inflammation associated with migraine.

Is inflammation causing a run out of serotonin and then tryptophan and then vitamin B3 ?

B3 is also involved as a precursor in the histamine chain. And could well be like Victor says, if you have the pre-cursor and can't use it, the solution is one, but if you are low in production of the pre-cursor the solution is the other.

Diabetes is that way. There are two types of insulin, one in which the body lacks insulin, and another where the body has enough but doesn't know how to use it. Two completely different solutions, same final result.

So in POIS, I think that's what we are looking at.

It's incredible what we can do as lay-people, isn't it!!??

What they think happens in a migraine is that the vessels at the base of the head constrict, this causes the vessels higher up in the head to dilate as a compensatory mechanism to counteract for the decrease blood flow, this dilation causes the headache.  The triptians selectively bind to 5ht receptors and cause the dilated vessels in the upper head to constrict, which relieves the headache.  I get post-coital headaches and used to use sumatriptian, which worked great for the headaches and pois in general.  The only problem was that the more I used sumatriptian the less effective it became, I also started to get more and worse headaches from over use(rebound headaches).  Even if I did not get a postcoital headache, I would still take the sumatriptian and it would kick my pois in the ass pretty good.   I would recommend using the Imitrex sparingly to treat only your worst postcoital headaches.

About my social anxiety and reduced cognitive function stemming from POIS:

Against my better judgement I've been on Venlafaxine (Effexor), an SNRI, for Social Anxiety for a week and 3 days now and it's only made me feel tired, weak, and zoned out and gave me some heart pains which I've never ever experienced before. Since I've already tried Prozac(which also just made me tired) and after spending a lot of time reading up on drug studies and user reports of SSRIs and SNRIs I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. My next approach will be to use Klonopin (a benzo that actually reduces my anxiety and seems to work for the majority of other people) and hopefully I can get some Adderall since I've read a lot of good user reports on it's ability to enhance cognitive energy and function over a short period of time. I would take both only 2 times a week at most to avoid developing a tolerance since tolerance develops within days or weeks in most of the reports I've read.

you should try a tricyclic antidepressant

Vandemolen3 -- welcome back! It's really good to see you once again on the forum.

And it's great to hear about your progress. 

Who's your doctor (who is the physician giving you the injections)?  What's his name?




Stef

I am back at the turn of the tide. I come with good news.

Desensitization plan works for me. I have 40-50% less symptoms.  I used to have 4 days of POIS. Now it is 2 days. And sometimes only 1 day. I began with a dillution of 1/10.000. Then 1/1000, 1/200, 1/70, 1/50, 1/30, 1/15. And today it was 1/5. The good news is that the max was 1/20. Now there was a meeting with allergists in The Netherlands. They said the dillution can be lower. Now the max is 1/2. Almost pure semen. When I went from 1/50 to 1/30 I had pain in my arms for 6 weeks. And I had a red mark on my arm and under my armpit. I thought it was blood-poisoning, because at another hospital an intern took some blood from my arm and she couldn't do it with 1 shot. But the doctor said this was just the reaction of the desensitization. Last time I had no reaction at all from the injection, no little red mark. So that's why today we went to 1/5. And today my arm really hurts again.

The other good news is that the Dutch health insurance are willing to pay for their clients. So that's why a few allergists are willing to do the desensitization. Next week there will be a test of 2 patients of 2 different allergists at the clinic where I go. So hopefully all the POIS-patients in The Netherlands can be helped in 2012 immediately!

Vandemolen3, Are you also taking niacin as a preventive measure or any other remedies during this desensitization process.

I must say that although this sucks really bad for all of us, Its kind of amazing how we are all a part of science and we are the 1 percent of the world different from all others .

And im gonna search for Mr. Waldingers Study right now

1% ha ha, !% is not rare, schizophrenia is 1%, there are 2.5-3 million people with schizophrenia in the U.S..  We are more like 0.0001-0.00001%.  We are the rare of the rare my friend.  just to be less than 1/1000,000 we would need at least 300 documented cases of people living in the U.S. right now with POIS.

There has been a BIG slowdown in donations for our NORD POIS research fund! Only a valiant few have made donations these past few months. Below, there is a very good but typical story of how a research donation to a fund like NORD can save and greatly improve lives.

In fact, if it were not for Nordnurse (Stefanie) who works daily with rare disease causes, we would still be flailing around, thinking, scheming, supposing and inventing, to find a solution to the POIS problem.

Haven’t we seen enough doctors who don’t take us seriously? Haven’t we seen enough to see that the only ones who care are the effected themselves? Maybe we could FIND the cure ourselves, but we would have NO cooperation in implementing it without the support of some real, peer-reviewed, scientific research.

It’s beyond saying that we must support our research fund -- and must bring it to life! It is an absolutely necessary requirement. All of our effort, time, ideas and concepts are worth absolutely zero without it.

What choices do we have?  

We can sit on our haunches, waiting for the money to magically appear. Or – like other groups with rare conditions, we can take the bull by the horns.  We MUST do our part to get that basic research started!

Nordnurse sent us an inspirational story recently, and we felt that it would be a good story to share with you all–

”There's a physician on NORD's Medical Advisory Committee (MAC),
Dr. Robert Campbell, Jr -- an angel who poses as a human being here on earth. 

As a pediatric orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Campbell’s special area of interest is a group of HORRIFIC disorders that begin in infancy and childhood – called “thoracic insufficiency.”  Basically, the ribs do not grow, and the baby/child literally and inevitably suffocates to death.

When Dr. Campbell, as a new researcher, applied for a NORD research grant for thoracic insufficiency, back in the late 1980s, he knew that he would have an uphill battle.  Having had a first career as an engineer, his proposal was unusual, definitely “outside the box.”  Based in solid medicine, he proposed an idea for an expandable titanium rib – a medical device for these fatally ill children.

There were many applications for this one $30,000 grant, which had been donated in full by the desperate parents of a young child who was suffering terribly and facing certain death. NORD’s MAC liked Dr. Campbell’s proposal, despite knowing that it might be very difficult for him to get the type of future funding from government or private industry.  Despite this concern, they trusted their appraisal of his proposal’s scientific merit, and awarded that grant to him. 

The rest… as they say… is history.

Because of that first basic NORD study, Dr. Campbell later received major funding from industry.  He has since patented the titanium expandable rib, and these children no longer die a slow, miserable death.  They go on to live their lives!

The expandable titanium rib is now “The Standard of Care” for children with this disorder.

http://www.c-spanvideo.org/videoLibrary/clip.php?appid=598537344

Dr. Campbell joined NORD’s MAC as a senior attending physician and researcher about eight years ago.  He was recently honored on Capitol Hill for his unswerving work to save the lives of children with this horrible disorder (thoracic insufficiency).

Fellow POIS sufferers and comrades – we NEED that basic research – and we need those funds – NOW!  Our group focus must dramatically change – from speculation to ACTION. 

We can and should continue posting our comments, asking our questions, and sharing our experiences. But if we want a way out of the hell of POIS – which can only come from scientific research – we must walk the walk!

The next grant cycle at NORD begins in March 2012.  That gives us six moths to raise ~$30,655.  Monthly, that equates to ~ 5,100/month. That translates into ~ $50/month from 100 donors each month.

Walking the walk, taking action -- this requires EFFORT. Stefanie knows from experience at NORD that only this kind of personal effort lead to the road of a real solution.

We propose a serious pledges database, where there will be a fixed time of 30 days maximum to register your pledge.  This will provide more time over which to amortize any payments. Pledges may be made as a lump sum or divided over months to come.

We require a minimum of donors (100), as we cannot expect a few to pay the majority. Every donor will be granted a place in a VIP area on the SMF forum where all things pertaining to the grant will be discussed, and first information will be disseminated.

Upon pledging the required amount, monthly payments will be begun. Each pledge will be billed (as a formal reminder) at which point his pledge should be converted into an actual donation. Each donor will donate personally to NORD so as to (1) receive any tax deduction and/or (2) maintain anonymity (two issues not covered by other systems such as thepoint.com).

This program was devised as a means to be assertive in the implementation and follow through of the research program, to avoid extra costs and limitations imposed by outside entities and to benefit, through personal management of money and donations by each individual.

An individual thread has been opened on the SMF forum for a brief discussion of  the details of this program at http://poiscenter.com/forums/index.php?topic=213.0 Thanks for your input. The database will be generated as soon as possible.

Your friendly POIS Forum Moderators,
Demografx

we should be sending requests for donations to organizations and private donors who give money.  One or two outside donors could easily fund the minimum amount we need to get started.  I know somewhere there are lists of organizations that allocate money to charities and medical research to people who request and solicit them.  We should start soliciting these entities ASP.

Laurac, excellent idea! Can you take that on as a project as we pursue our own constituency?

I would but I start a clinical rotation on monday and I will barely have a enough time to complete regular activities of daily living.

Here is something interesting to read about L-Histadine.


"Researchers are aware of the effects of increased levels of L-histidine, a precursor to Histamine, which can produce sensations of intense warmth that quickly spreads throughout the body. This warming effect is secondary to a release of the histamine that produces a dilation of blood vessels and capillaries, which results in subsequent increase in blood flow. The vasodilatation of the blood vessel is very similar to the flush felt instantaneously during sexual excitement. Orgasm is triggered when histamine is released in the body from the mast cells. These cells function as part of the immune system, but also cause the sexual flush experienced during arousal. For both functions, the active ingredient is histamine. When there is insufficient histamine in the body, histamine production is low and women find it difficult, sometimes even impossible to achieve orgasm. Individuals who release Histamine easily generally do not have difficulty in achieving an orgasm.         Pfeiffer, C. 1975.

I've got a question: is it equally effective to take Niacin (or any other vitamin) alone, than to take a B-complex that contains the same quantity of Niacin?

I would think that in principle the Niacin could still be effective if taken in a B-complex.  However, I think that the form of niacin in most B-complex vitamins is nicotinamide, i.e. the non-flushing type -- so it might be that factor, rather than the presence of other vitamins, that might make B-complex less effective for niacin-treatment of POIS. 

Has anyone on the forum done comparison tests between regular niacin and nicotinamide, to see if the latter has any effect on POIS?

But on the other hand, i have read that B vitamins compete with each other for absorption. I mean, if you take too much Niacin, you may downregulate another B vitamin. So, i'm still not sure if it's the same to take 100 mg of Niacin alone, or take a B-complex which includes 100mg Niacin, supposing i could find one with the flushing-type.

So, now we can count at least 3 theories about Niacin:

A) It helps in cases of Histapenia (low histamine). Could be proved if L-Histidine also works for us.

B) It helps because it causes cerebral vasodilation (the same reason XN works).

C) It helps because it helps energy mitochondrial metabolism. This last theory can be proved if we try for a long enough period the two other agents that help energy: riboflavin and coenzyme Q10.

The two last theories (B and C) are the main reasons why Niacin is considered a migraine/headache preventive/abortive.

I think L-Histadine would be a good test to try.  It seems counter intuitive in regards to our auto-immune theory, but I have been thinking about trying it for a couple years now after I felt bad all day after taking claritin one time.

Here is a new and interesting drug to look at, "Vinpocetine", it is a prescription drug in Europe marketed for cerebral vascular disease, but recently approved as a over the counter supplement marketed for cognitive enhancement in the United states and Canada.  It says it is a cerebral vascular dilator, increasing blood flow to the brain.  After our recent mixed success with xanthinol nicotinate and niacin, I started to look into drugs that might increase blood flow to the brain.  Unrelated to my search, I found a web page that referenced both vinpocetine and XN.

http://www.vinpocetine.com/how-can-vinpocetine-help-us.html


"In 1976 Vamosi and colleagues reported their favorable results comparing Vinpocetine with Xanthinol Nicotinate in treating 143 patients with various cerebrovascular diseases. They measured a large number of blood and cerebrospinal fluid variables before and after treatment, such as glucose, lactate, pyruvate, oxygen, pH, electrolyte levels, etc. They concluded from their study "…Though not all the changes are significant statistically, yet connected with each other they prove that Vinpocetine enhances both glycolytic and oxidative reactions of glucose breakdown in eNS [brain]. The changes in the concentration of K [potassium] and Mg [magnesium]. .. may be considered a sign of recovery of the energy metabolism of the nerve cells.…"1
Vamosi's study also demonstrated a superior clinical efficacy of Vinpocetine over Xanthinol Nicotinate."

This may lead to other drugs that may help us such as Vinpocetine or may just give us a better understanding of how Niacin containing compounds may be helping us, such as increasing cerebral blood flow.

Hi Everyone,

Apologies as usual for my sporadic appearance on the forum. I see there has been lots of recent activity I need to catch up with here! Well done.

I've been asked once again by Dr Goldmeier to shout out to any POIS sufferers in the UK. He's an author of one of the few scientific papers on POIS and is trying to conduct more research. He's widely published in medical journals and is based at St Mary's Hospital in London and Imperial College. He's part of a unit that conducts clinical research in sexual medicine.  He and his team really need more POIS sufferers to come forward and see him.

Dr Goldmeier is very approachable, and you can refer yourself to his clinic at St Mary's Hospital in London, there's no need to get your GP to do it for you. Just send him an email at:

David.Goldmeier@imperial.nhs.uk

What's more it doesn't cost you anything to go and see him (except for your travel to London). Its an amazing opportunity to get POIS thoroughly investigated. If Dr Waldinger has 45 or more POIS patients in the Netherlands (as suggested by his last POIS research paper), its hard to believe that there aren't at least that many sufferers willing to come forward in the UK.  Dr Goldmeier is willing to see any UK POIS patients and I think so far he's seen about 8. Simply get in touch with him by email.

Dr Goldmeier and his team seem willing and able to look at POIS from all angles including investigating any immunological connections as suggested by Dr Waldinger. Even an fMRI study, something many forum members here have called for, seems to be a possibility if he can get enough POIS sufferers to see him. So if you're in the UK, and haven't yet got in touch with Dr Goldmeier, please take a step forward for your own sake and for the rest of us in tackling this illness that's affected us all so badly.

I see there is much activity with NORD which is fantastic. I'll catch up with that. We need to pursue every avenue in getting this investigated.

This sounds like a great opportunity for patients in the UK which will also benefit all of us.

Hello fellow POIS sufferers, I haven't been on the forum in a while, and during that time I have found extreme success in possibly curing my POIS 100%.  I remember how in previous posts, animus explained how his POIS came from his spine up into his head.  So during this time I have done several different things, some based upon that information.  I will list what I believe to be the most important thing I have done, to the least important thing I have done.  I say this has cured my POIS 100% because I O'd 5 times about a week and a half ago without any POIS, and just yesterday I have O'd 4 times without any POIS.  Also am sleeping great.  Hopefully this stays strong.  So anyway...

1)  My uncle is a chiropractor and he gave me an adjustment.  First he twisted my neck, the main chiropractic treatment, and than he pressed heavily on my lower spine (cracking it), than pressed heavily on my upper spine (cracking it) with all of his strength.  I haven't had a headache, or inflammation in my head,as I called it, since than.  He told me it is called a cervicogenic headache.
................
The only thing now, especially the last couple of days, instead of the "ache" being in my head that I believe causes POIS as it happens, it feels like it is now in my tailbone.  Now I feel like I have to go to the bathroom almost all the time.  It's really not that bad though.  SO much better than POIS.  This is just a nuisance, feels like a knot down there, and it could possibly just be from running and sports.  So for my POIS and maybe others, it feels as though this is "spine" based.  Possibly a bad alignment of the spine that comes out with headaches and POIS by supposedly blocking circulation.  I will update.

GoingCrazy, I just wanted to come back to your post from a few days ago.  From a NSF member that's as well known and has contributed as much as you have, we really should be placing more emphasis on your "cure" than we currently are.  I think the reason behind this is two-fold.  1) This XN/ Niacin talk has really excited everyone.  2) seeing a chiropractor just seems like such an unlikely cure - but not to say it's not possible.

I guess just keep us updated on your POIS-free status every couple weeks.  If your POIS starts to revert back, and you again have your back cracked and it works again, THAT would be very promising to know it worked more than once.  Thanks for sharing

TO: "goingcrazy", my brother is a very good chiropractor, but I have never experienced any reduction of pois from being adjusted.  That is not to say that your chiropractic experience is not the cause of your relief from symptoms.

I created a topic called "Blood tests results" on the new forum = General Alternatives Causes and Treatment.
I suggest this part to be the one where we can post all our blood tests results since we have POIS.
We could check the fail common standards, compare and investigate more clearly.
As it is expensive, we can see which standards are the most important.

Thank you! []

I would love to study the biological semen regeneration process. That just MAY possibly be the path to a full POIS cure - for some of us!!

Maybe Pyropeach will help me/others take the lazy way out and teach us here? []

Demo, you never fail to flatter....lol  I encourage everyone to lookup anything and everything about semen regeneration, or more accurately I'd say, semen-glands regeneration. 

That's it? End of lecture? I want my money back! []

I dont think it takes that long to make semen(with no sperm).

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.

Demo, I thought you do not have any sperm to regenerate in the first place.

I recorded it, but I fast forwarded through first part with the fat lady.

Oh, c'mon, fess up, Laurac, we know there's a HUGE attraction there! []

edit - no pun intended

Demo, you caught me, I watched the fat lady part twice
