No sex drive, Long refractory period and ED

@hwisdom Is this the reason why so many peoples sex drives go through the roof when they take apple cider vinegar? Because it's killing bacteria?

@fucker said in No sex drive, Long refractory period and ED:

The only times I ever feel horny are when I drink booze or at certain times when I wake up in the middle of the night. In the past I would wake up horny as fuck and i would have to crank one out just to sleep. Now i wake up and I feel horny like the old days, maybe with a boner, but only for a few seconds, then it's gone.

To me this whole process seems like it's driven by the catecholamines. Mostly epinephrine and norepinephrine. Peaters typically have the misfortune of demonizing adrenaline as the "bad guy" in pretty much everything, which is sorta true. But the issue is when it's overproduced due to low thyroid, you become insensitive to it so you produce more and more. I think progesterone & cortisol partially "rescues" the dysfunctional metaboslim from adrenaline's toxic effects, bringing the blood glucose back up, especially when we're younger (People under 20 probably don't even realize they have low thyroid because steroidogenesis is still high). But as we age, even as early as mid 20s, the thyroid is still low and now the cholesterol begins to creep up, less hormones are being made so there's less pregnenolone, progesterone, cortisol, and DHEA. What we desire is high sensitivity to small amounts of epinephrine.

@Mulloch94 but the numb genitals is a sode effect of using SSRIs so why isnt it instead the serotonin’s fault?

@SummerPeach it aint rlly about ”bacteria” since ur gut is literally full of them

The human body has more bacteria than human cells (but the cells are ofc bigger)

Apple cider vinegar helps with digestion and since a disrupted gut is the root cause/always connected to issues in the human body (including testosterone) ppl will therefore experience increased libido
Not super educated on the topic rn, but proper digestion will decrease serotonin —> dopamine shoots up
And testosterone + DHT will shoot up cus dopamine and testosterone are congruent

The thing with bacteria is that mainstream health mfs have psyoped us to be too afraid of bacteria n viruses while a proper immune system should be sble to handle everything
They do this to push vaccines + use it as a fear mongering tactic (covid)
Vaccine contains a fuck ton of heavy metals which basically make us stupid (+ all sorts of issues actually) by a huge margin (30iq prolly even more) so if the virus aint super dangerous i wouldnt vaccinate my future children for it (e.g. Covid)

@Androsclerozat I guess it depends what you consider a "lot of starches", but I dont think I eat so much of them in general. I have tried a lot of diets in the span of time since I developed this problem and nothing has helped with this particular issue

Erections while fasting, IDK because I don't fast. Should I try?

You could try.
By a lot of starches I mean morning and evening meals with starches, over 200g a day.
Some people are more sensitive. My friend can eat only one meal a day, more than that makes him anhedonic. In my case, only once every few days it's optimal.

@hwisdom Thank you.

fucker

@hwisdom OK interesting
but why parm?

fucker

@Mulloch94 treatment?

hwisdom

Raw milk is freaking awesomesauce for ur gut

@Mulloch94 @hwisdom

So for what its worth the other day i drank a couple of beers out of the blue ( I almost never drink), and lo and behold I was instantly in a horny mood to the point of popping a boner in public and having to awkwardly face the wall for a minute like I was 15 years old again.

I seriously can't even remember the last time that happened.

This seems to rule out any kind of physical incapacity or gut issue wouldn't you think? Or if it's a gut issue, how is the alcohol providing temporary relief?

hwisdom

@fucker not super well versed atm but the estrogenic load u get from beer (10x worse than soymilk btw) is resposible for ur libido

Stressed organisms get the urge to reproduce in order to save their bloodline n shit

Alcohol’s primary reason its poison is not that it damages ur gut (still does) but alcohols main skibidi toilet is beeing toxic for ur liver

@fucker I know you mentioned it already, but porn will do this. If you get erections from edging to porn but not a real woman, then you know its PIED. If you don't get erections from porn either, then it may also still be PIED. If you have no desire or interest altogether (asexual) then it could be a low dopamine problem, as you likely are lacking zest for living altogether.
