i am planning on getting a cornucopia of testing done soon, i will have my t checked
I have found that taking a Nytol type sleep-aid speeds up my recovery. If I have a particularly awful day I will try to grab a few naps and take a Nytol at my regular bedtime (about midnight). This seems to induce deeper sleep and can help dramtically.

Some people here have had success with other antihistamines. Doing a search might help you find out more.

I had assumed that the POIS was somehow affecting my sleep, exacerbating the problem the next day with actual exhaustion. I had thought the Nytol was simply causing me to sleep deeper, I am sure that is the case, but as you say the antihistamine maybe working in other ways too. I will look into this as you suggest.
The new doctor is trying a new regime that is suppose to be a safer practice than that of the progesterone article. Instead of taking 10mg to 15mg norethisterone prior to O I am taking a daily dose of .35mg. This is the exact schedule for a female taking norethisterone for birth control. The amount of progesterone injested is significanyly less this way (about 30 times less), but the side effects will diminish proportionally according to the Dr.I feel more comfortable with this schedule, but am less confident about what the results will be.

I received a one month trial from a doctor that will not help me anymore (unfortunately). Determined and stubborn to get more progesterone I schedule an appt with another doctor yesterday - he would not prescribe it to me. I scheduled another appt with another Dr. in the afternoon - he would not prescribe either. I then scheduled a third appt with another Dr. and they prescribed it!Good thing I didn't give up, even though the first and second doctor inferred that I should.Isn't there a way, given that one is informed and having somewhat of a success, that one could sign an agreement with one of these doctors relieving them of responsibility. It seems it's more that that they're concerned about rather than one's health, especially if you can show that it's working and you know what the downside could be.

Hey guys, i was doing a search through google on POIS again, or more specifically, "crazy feelings after orgasm" and came upon this thread. http://www.reuniting.info/node/3427 it's interesting how they talk about the brain "re-setting" itself like it's some kind of generally known thing.I'm trying to see if that works. Today I O'd 4 times and have felt on edge all day. I'm doing better, but not yet cured, I want to try to take this abstinence thing seriously, hoping that my brain will "re-set" itself, I always tend to satisfy myself to the point where I almost orgasm, I want to take that whole thing away. This means no sexual satisfaction whatsoever.

Has any of you guys tried using dopamine agonists? Ifso, what was the effect? My GP subscribed this for me now..
