I usually orgasm once every few months before bed only because too much energy builds up inside me and I feel restless. I have been taking niacin before orgasm and spirulina, vitamin c, zinc, and amino acids right after orgasm.

Try Omega 3 capsules. 2 of them 2 hours before, then 2 immediately after. Also get a magnesium supplement, preferably oil that you rub into your skin.

no ejaculation for a long time, think it was some weeks at least.
had one mild this morning... instantly took 250 mg niacin and one loratadin...

10 minutes in I felt as if the room temperature dropped with 10 Celsius.
congested in nose
trouble breathing
tried some mild exercise, had some effect, got me warmer but nose congestion still there, and trouble breathing. it did improve circulation in body, which is good.

no trouble with eyes yet, often does come as first symptom.

trouble breathing could be side effect of loratadin.

will keep posting.

Johan - it sounds like you are taking the nicain just after having an O. The majority of the advocates of niacin take it say about 30-20 mins before an O. They take the  flush type niacin and also it works more effectively on an empty stomach. I have tried it and it works somewhat for me but not a total cure alas. the more often you take the flush version the less you will have the beetroot face when you do, which is what put me off it for a while in terms of walking back into the room to have some fun with the woman sporting the bad sunburn look.


B-Jim - have you tried progesterone?  I had a feeling a couple did here and one had good outcome but the other didn't. I guess it depends on where you live but there are some OTC versions of progesterone creme I thought. It needs a doctor script where I live so its not so straight forward to give it a try. I ran it past my GP but he wouldn't let me try it.


dekoichi -desensitizing. You could get yourself a small tube of tattoo desensitizing lotion and give it a try (test it before you go on your date though so you know how much to get the right balance between getting a good erection and not cumming easily). It has the same active ingredient in it that some of the 'last longer' sprays have that get sold in sex/erotica shops. You could also try those, just that the tattoo numbing version is cheap.


Lars - no shock on getting treated as a weirdo by the hospital (main stream) doctors. You asked about dealing with anxiety. Here is a thread that might interest you. http://forums.phoenixrising.me/index.php?threads/completely-eliminated-my-severe-anxiety-symptoms-with-three-supplements.18369/.
I had to deal with periods of high anxiety when I was younger. I took lots of calcium, magnesium, calming herbs, trytophan, honey, cut down on meat + wheat, took rescue remedy drops, got plenty of sleep + went to sleep listening to relaxation/confidence hypnotism CDs and of course less ejaculation. Less anxiety after 5 weeks but also less mentally sharp too.


sebastiano - I am on TRT. Yes when you go on it it is generally for life, so it needs to be considered carefully though most guys if they feel crappy due to low T will take that chance. There are drugs out there to boost T but most doctors don't know about them or want to know about them because it is not conventional. Body Builders & athletes, take them as part of their post cycle treatment. Lots of body builders & wrestlers who were total juice monkeys have gone on to have kids when they quit or had breaks from the steroids. you would have a hard time finding a doctor who knows his stuff on this. I have read cases of guys who have kallmanns-syndrome (stunted puberty) having hard time finding endos who will think outside the box when it comes to treatment/fertility.

It has been interesting reading the comments about testosterone. I was brought up vegetarian and fed loads of soya meat-substitutes by a well-meaning mother, which I think is partly responsible for my condition, because soya increases estrogen levels.

I have scheduled a visit with an endocrinologist in 2 weeks and am going to have my T levels tested. If need be I will then go onto testosterone supplements. I will also move onto a full nutrition supplement.

I have suffered from this f^%king disorder for 18 years now, and have achieved nothing more than symptom reduction and management, so if it works for me hopefully will work for others. Will keep you posted.

I think the answer is almost close to unraveling this syndrome. Hopefully soon will help us all Professor Komisaruk.

I agree! [:)]

I finally found a doctor who knows stuff about this. He said i suffer from POIS, but he need more money before he can continue his research. The problem is 50k…. i cannot believe that 50k stops the whole research, ill meet him again this thursday and ask for more information about his research, will post it here.
The strange thing is that since 2 months my symptoms has changed, i normally got severe back pain and dizziness in my head, i now just suffer from anxiety and depression..
Does those niacine help for these symptoms too?
The doctor said that taking vitamin b3 helps, so ill try that too

i get these eruptions all over my body small acne kind of till the 7 days after that i feel better no eruptions, things start getting better.vitamin d helps,i take 1000 iu everyday sometimes 400 iu.eruptions means there is definately imflamation and vit d definately helps.pls try vit d3.i think imfalamtion is the reason for the brain fog also.

Excessive ejaculation definitively leads to dry skin. Somehow it feels as if the body is empty of fat or oil after ejaculation.

Hi my name is Alfonso i'm 21 years old and i'm from Mexico. I'm new in this forum and i'm here for ask for help and know if i have POIS, being that have like 3 years with symtoms similar to an allergy.
And also wanna thank you for all you support and interest in this subject, truly it's very good knowing that you're not the only person with this rare condition. Well these are some of my symptoms after ejaculation.

Fatigue, palpitations, problems finding words , difficulty sleeping , irritated, concentration difficulties, severe  depression , stuffy nose , muscle tension in neck and shoulders, heavy and weak legs, feeling pressure in the ears , also symptoms like Raynaud 's disease like redness in hands and feet, among others.

Days ago I read that niacin can help to reduce symptoms so I decided to take niacin 1 hr before ejaculating, even i had symptoms of the last ejaculation, and at the moment of the ejaculation suddenly notice a flusshing in my face and neck, a rash on the shoulders and extremely red ears, and in internet read that niacin can increase the severity of allergies because increases histamine.

So my question is if i have POIS?

Thank you all! Sorry for my english.

If you consistently get those  symptoms after orgasm and heal after a period of days then there is a high chance you have pois.
When you use niacin you want to wait to orgasm untill the flush occurs and goes away. Orgasm during the flush wont help you much.

I would not call Waldinger an idiot. Besides he did not call POIS an allergy. There is an immune response responsible for male and female orgasm, histamine being a part of the bigger chain. He tried to lower the response and got some results.
