Hi NKinney: Prolactin is measured in blood. Your doc can order the test for you. I can't post it here, but if you send me a private email, I'll tell you how to get the test yourself. I took a quick...
The chemistry of this is pretty complicated and not always clear. However, IMHO, the hormone prolactin plays a big role in this. After an orgasm, prolactin levels soar, which appears to be the main...
Hey JayBee Actually, there probably is not enough info for a book, and the reader base is relatively limited. However, I do intend to write an article on this subject that I will publish in my...
Hey guys When I started this thread, I didn't expect to get many responses. But, it seems like this is a massive problem that virtually nobody (except you guys) are willing to talk about. Anyway, I'm...
Hi PSA -- I've never heard of Trimix making you cold either. It's mode of operation is to increase blood circulation into the penis and restrict outflow -- the same way the the PGE1 produced by a...
Ramon: That seems to be the usual problem with a lot of doctors. Perhaps they are told in med school that to detail all the side effects will scare you off treatment. However, IMHO I have seen many...
Hey Redwing - (and everyone else) -- very well put!! Never thought I would stir up this much activity starting this thread. We all know it exists, but unfortunately, nobody seems to have any kind of...
NKinney Are you on any SSRI's. Also, if you are willing, please share any meds you're taking. If you are unwilling to post them here, a private email is OK. I'm trying to get a handle on this from...
Prevail Yeah! Also reported was unanticipated erections in men. But, before anyone gets too excited about this, sexual effects of Trazodone seem to wear off within a couple weeks of starting use....
Prevail An interesting side note to this is that Trazadone (an SRI, not an SSRI) -- although I don't know what the significance of that really is, can decrease prolactin and often induce...
Hi BillyBob I don't see why it wouldn't be. Virtually all the antidepressants in this class cause hyperprolactinemia (elevated prolactin hormone) which is known to crash libido and cause problems...
Hi Peter: Read your prior post on Prozac. Very interesting. I'm aware that Prozac and several other drugs can cause anorgasmia. I'm looking more for input from guys that are not on any drugs known to...
Yes - I should have mentioned antidepressants too. However, while the anti-depressants do cause this, I think they cause more of a sometimes side effect, whereas a drug like gabapentin (at high...
Hi guys: I'm doing some research on this subject, and am interested in any personal or other info you may have to contribute. Most of the studies I've looked at are either dealing with women or they...
PeterD Production of testosterone in the human body is a complex process depending on adequate ntrition in many areas. In your case, perhaps some extra nutrition with specific characteristics may be...
Hi Trimix01 Welcome to the forum. Sounds like your pharmacist is right on track. The doc can only establish a starting dose from which you would slowly titrate up until you get desired results....
Thanks PSA Wow! you guys have a good deal there. Your mix is quite powerful and very inexpensive compared to U.S. pricing. You're well under $1 per shot, whereas the cheapest I've seen in the U.S. is...
Hey PSA3dot7 If yo don't mind me asking, what does a 5 ml vial of that mix cost you. Jim...
Hey Cig - I agree 100% with JStars. Get the real numbers of each item, before you pay for the script, and compare to the ones I've posted above. Keep in mind the Alpro (PGE1) is listed as mcg/ml,...
Hey Cigar56 The Trimix numbers are typically given as Prostaglandin E-1 in mcg/ml, Papaverine in mg, Phentolamine in mg. in a 5ml vial. If I read your post right, your mix of PR1.25/PAP6.25/PHE0...
Harati There are a bunch of places selling it, many of them out of the country, re: China, Panama. There is a place in Illinois or Indiana, tho. (don't remember which state, but at least it US). I...
Thanks Peter Interesting stuff. I too think the PT-141 is going to be the one that comes out on top, and a soon as they get an approval, they will be looking for ways to avoid the injection...
No P I agree with Jstars and Tigerfan - I did quite a bit of research on this and found there is little concrete evidence that injections have anything to do with Pyronies. I had great aversion to...
Peter Incidentally - here's a link to the latest info from EB, the company that is making Lybrido and Lybridos http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40268-014-0047-7. Perhaps we should have a...
Peter Thanks for the info and link to the 2013 thread. I read the NY Times article as well as the entire thread. As a relatively new member of HW, I am amazed at the level of intellect of its...
Update to previous posts - PT141 is not approved in Europe or anywhere else that I can see. Palatin (the manufacturer) has licensed an unnamed pharmaceutical company to market it in Europe when it is...
The drug is very close to approval in Europe. Paladin Tech. has licensed an unnamed pharmaceutical company to distribute it pending approval. Unfortunately, the way the FDA moves, it'll likely be 10+...
Dmlvt PT-141 is not really an ED drug that increases blood circulation. It stimulates arousal in the brain, so it should work for anyone. However, it will not fix ED, and if you are not using...
Palatin Technologies was trying to get FDA approval several years ago for an ED drug labeled PT-141 (bremelanotide), but I haven't heard much about it since the FDA dumped approval during the phase 3...
BigAl Some of the inexpensive VED's use inexpensive rings as well. A good silicone ring has a pretty big range and high elasticity (a measure of how well it returns to its original shape after...
Hey BillyBob: I've used both the pump and injections, but no sleeves. I find orgasms with the injections have better sensation then with the pump. The injection is closest to being natural. I have no...
BillyBob: think you misread Biker's post. he said "My trimix is 5.9 micro gram/ml Alpros, 17.6mg/ml Papaverine, 0.6 mg/ml Phentalomine.", which is Trimix not Bimix. Biker's mix is about 60% of what...
Hi Billy Sorry bout the Daughter-in-law. Note on the cost. Very surprising. I did some research on purchasing the chemicals and found that the PGE-1 is really the expensive one. I was getting prices...
Biker Thanks for the input. I think you are correct that BillyBob may need to tinker with the prescription makeup to get something that works. I did quite a bit of research on this before settling on...
Thanks Bluebird Those are the typical numbers. with 11 units, your husband is getting 1.1 mcg per injection (.11 x 10mcg/ml). He might be more comfortable and have more success with a shorter needle....
BillyBob A thought - if BlueBird's husband is injecting at 45 degrees from the long axis for consistent success, that kinda agrees with my thought that the 1/2 syringes are too long. JimO...
Hi BlueBird I'm trying to get a good handle on the dosages. You say your hubby is using 11 units. If you don't mind sharing, I'd like to know what the concentration of the PGE-1 and other chemicals...
I started to become a bit apprehensive slamming the needle in all the way, and trying to go in slow hurts more, so the smaller (and thinner) needle seems to work a lot better, but I still need more...
Hey BillyBob We talked about aspirating blood from the CC before, and I did a little research on that. While in most cases, you will see some blood, it is a spongy structure, thus may have holes in...
Interesting. I can see it certainly would be easier to control and aim the injection when partially erect, so this does make sense. I also read somewhere (not HW) that this technique can help reduce...
BillyBob Yeah! I saw a post somewhere that recommend the same thing. Spoke to a couple of my professional friends and general opinion was that the ring blocks incoming as well as outgoing blood, but,...
BillyBob: OK - I buy that. Didn't think of it at first, but you're correct; the C. Cavernosa is is basically a vein, always containing some blood, so aspirating blood is a good indicator, but I sure...
I would think that even if you were in the right place, you would still aspirate some blood. I've just been pulling the needle out a bit to avoid the problem. Jim...
The 3/16" was a typo. I meant 5/16". Must be the "OldTimer's" disease kicking in. Jim...
Hi guys I'm using a 30 ga 1/2" needle. I would have thought 3/16 too short, but glad to see you guys are having success with it. Fortunately, being a NewBee at this, I didn't buy a lot of needles,...
BillyBob The PGE1 is what causes the pain. Trimix is supposed to eliminate that over straight alprostadil, but everybody is different. I found a lot of pain with the Trimix Gel, (2000mcg) but...
I'm a new Trimix injection user with (I think) a rather unique problem. The trimix works great except that I often hit the wrong spot, resulting in no effect or unwanted bleeding. My (again I think)...
BillyBob Caution - on your edit note, you have the Prostaglandin at 20 mg. It should be 20 mcg. Jim...
Hey Daughter: You should really twist Dad's arm to get him to join here. I work with a lot of guys that have zero info, and being uninformed is bad news. There are a lot of good people here just...
Hi Daughter I doubt that a blow to his back would cause the cancer to grow. I jumped in on this thread because of your query about natural medicines or alternative therapies. I am a Natural Health...
