Animus, that was a really excellent segment!  I thought you really presented yourself well, and gave a really clear description of POIS.  And, even though your surgical solution was somewhat unusual, you gave a pretty typical account of POIS, and I think any POIS sufferer would be able to relate to it.

I had one question, though: in the episode, it seemed to indicate that your surgery had completely cured you of POIS.  But, I thought you've said that while it did help with some symptoms, some other symptoms still remain.  Did TLC just present it as a 'full cure' for the sake of a better TV ending?

As for the video itself i really appreciate "Frank" taking time to do this, i'm sure at the very least it will lead others suffering from POIS to this website and further progression on treatments.  Unfortunately i personally found the surgery on the video a little hard to swallow and am not sure i could ever bring myself to do that even if it means living a better life.

Spence: Thanks for posting those downloads.

Yes, the surgeries were hard to swallow for me too. I did not take them lightly. This is why I did them in increments- which the video does not show. The video collapses them all into 1 operation. But I was severely suffering, visiting the emergency room for years because of POIS-related illness. It was taking years off my life, and causing despair. Dry ejaculation was my goal- and I'm now 100% POIS free. I no longer go to the emergency room a few times a year. Now I even totally forget if I had an O the previous day or not. I'm not advocating surgery, but just defending the results- it did work for me.

Guthrie:
No, I am completely POIS free. You might be thinking of a statement I made about having POIS even after the removal of the testicles. But after the subsequent operation for dry ejaculation I became completely POIS free.

It requires maintenance. The surgeries removed all but the prostate- so it's still possible to create some seminal fluid. What I'm doing is shrinking the prostate as much as possible with medication. I find if I go off these medications, I will have some mild return of POIS symptoms- but much milder and less threatening than I had originally. While on these prostate meds I am completely symptom free, and have dry ejaculations.

I don't know. I had to wait a few months. I don't know how it is now.

Good job, At first I thought they were going to try and make you out to be a weirdo, but they presented it in a respectable manner.  I recorded it, but I fast forwarded through first part with the fat lady.

its my personal experience,soak the seeds in water at night and have it in the morning.make it your daily routine.around 15-20 seeds.

its been 4-5 days i am eating them and it has helped me a lot.

[Starsky]

Animus, why didnt you remove the prostate? This medication which you currently take is Finasteride?

Just watched the episode at this link Animus provided. Amazing job. Perfect. I don't think this show could've turned out much better than this. We need to get this on youtube somehow.

CC, he just wrote to me that he could see Green at the end of July.

Animus, do you see any connection between your surgery = 100% POIS-free and my TRT = 80% POIS-free?

(Keep in mind my 'mysterious' Zero-sperm-count - a mystery as to when it occurred).

[demografx]

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

[Vincent M]

demo, I think there is definitely a connection between your absence of sperm and Animus's surgery resulting in first no sperm, and later on, no semen.

Animus's POIS symptoms improved after his body stopped producing sperm and it's likely that yours improved as well at the time your body stopped producing sperm.

There may also be a connection with the fact that both you and animus seemed to have improved POIS symptoms on testosterone therapy. I think the main reason Animus achieved 100% free POIS symptoms was the stopping of semen production,... but perhaps testosterone improved his POIS as well?

[demografx]

Thanks, VM, it wasn't a dumb question after all!

Thanks for posting Animus, some of us missed the original.

Animus, thanks for coming forward and doing this. You did a good job expressing POIS to the unknown. My symptoms have been greatly reduced with the shut down of sperm production, not enough to have a normnal sex life but, it just about makes living POIS barable.

How did your date go in the end? You're very brave dating with POIS, you have a lot of courage and VERY calm, I'm usually a nervous wreck, best of luck with things and thanks once again.

POTENTIALLY BIG NEWS.
Willem is reporting "mild POIS" from 1:5000 home made semen/water dilution.
and "definite reactions" from 1:10,000.
This opens up a real possibility of self cures being workable.

(+ Amimus brilliant, you came across really well +
it was poignant, thanks)

Demo, I think that's a great question. I need to think about it some more. But I think VM might be in the right direction.
