Well, it has been about two months since my last post.  In that time I have finished another two bottles of relora. 

I can say with confidence that relora has been my "cure."  I no longer experience the symptoms. I have had an orgasm at least everyday, and sometimes more than once per day with none of the problems that have plagued me for the past five years.  I don't know who to give thanks to for my testing Relora.  But thank God for this forum, it has changed my life.

interesting you had that much communication with dr.waldinger.
i was just wondering what was did his questonaires contain.

I will be glad to share the questionnaire that Dr. Waldinger sent in 2004, CC. What is the best way to do that? I have it in a MS Word format now and it is 6 pages. Also, I tried to use the "Quote" feature, but not sure I did it right... sorry. I was trying to list your question above mine. Any guidance here is appreciated.

Also, guys... Thanks for the "Welcome" messages!!

CONGRATULATIONS,

TARKINGTON!!!!!

And please keep checking in!

EDS, you did it right, but somehow the system left out the prefacing.

Awesome Tarkington! 5 years of agony and now gone!

Thanks B_Jim and Demo. I'll definitely go and have an out-of-pois test. Can't wait. Although I have to, 'cos I had release yesterday to test other things

CURE LIMITS

Today is the _4th_  Day One since March 19. I'm not Tarkington, but for me this is astounding frequency:

3/19
3/24
3/26
3/28

The first 3 episodes were amazingly symptom-free. Today I could feel it a little. So...I'm finding my new limits. But I compare this to my previous limit of once every 2 months...I'm very fortunate. And even today: _nothing close_ to the previous agony and despair of the last 30+ years' Day Ones. Just slight, very tolerable discomfort.

I think I'm like you tarkington.  I believe my pois was caused through stress.  my cortisol levels i believe are still high because of chronic stress caused by coffee in the past.  Everytime I orgasm my body reacts to it as some sort of stress, thus releasing a unusual amount of cortisol...(then again just theorizing) i've been noticing rhodiola rosea as being beneficial.  I am going to try relora  "Researchers found that the natural plant extracts in Relora lowered cortisol levels by 37 per cent and increased DHEA by 227 per cent"  This betters mood and all and supposedly permanently lowering cortisol after taking it, basically leaving you in a relaxed state.  I can't wait to try this thanks for your post!

TESTOSTERONE CURE?

I may have misunderstood the value of adding Levitra for the last 2 years. Testosterone alone may be totally responsible for my cure. Will keep you posted.

Congratulations Tarkington-*-*-*-*-*
Hoorah for Relora
I think I will do some research on it

[Ambient123]

Hey everyone.

Yesterday I had my blood and Urine test for Cortisol.

I know it will sound strange, but im keeping my fingers crossed that this (Low cortisol/Adrenal fatigue) is the cause of my POIS, since it will be identified and treated easily

They said that the results would only take a couple of days, so i will phone in tomorrow and report back with my results.

P.S Congratulations to Tarkington for his Relora success!

Just one thing to add: I quickly researched Relora, and, ironically for me, it is used to treat Adrenal and cortisol problems

Ambient, I was very surprised to see my in-pois-test results come back with optimal values for cortisol and dhea-s. When you post the results, could you please tell if your testing was in-pois or out-of-pois? I would recommend both tests anyway. I'll post my out-of-pois in about a week.

Ambient, you might want to look at some previous discussions here on Relora and Fenugreek. I think the outcome was that Relora makes your cortisol lower and Fenugreek higher. Good luck!

Ambient, here are some forum discussions on "relora, fenugreek, cortisol" - that's what I searched for:

Testosterone, Serum           447 NG/DL         241 - 827
Free Testosterone (Direct)   10.6 PG/ML        9.3 - 26.5

What are your thoughts?

Limejuice, is this in-pois or out-of-pois?

[Limejuice]

The test was done out of POIS.

Rock, Ambient - I have a question for you guys... Are either of you sensative to carbs meaning that you lose mental concentration after a meal of pasta?

I'm extremely sensative as if I'm diabetic.

What are your thoughts?

your total testoterone seems good but your free testosterone seems low.
what did your doctor say about that.
i would do it in pois to see how the result changes.

Today is Day Zero. Testosterone patches alone - no Levitra - seem to be the main reason for my 90% cure. Never thought I'd see the day. So DON'T EVER GIVE UP! GET MAD AT POIS and do something!
