Explain the Science of This

[Thanksgiving]

I'm curious to know how my fucked up hormones will respond to a short fast. My concern with a short fast is a rebound effect whereas a longer fast would be a deeper cleanse and less chance of a rebound effect.

I think I need to achieve an androgenic state and slowly taper off the letro over a week or two before doing a fast.

Thanks for all the valuable insight. I love the positive helpful mind sets on this forum. It's refreshing

It would depend on your goals for the fast. For me, I want to reduce body inflamation, clear out bad bacteria, and cycle out my immune system. From my research, the minimum is 3 days. Longer durations might be better - I'm sure its a balance of benefits of a fast to the stress the body experiences. CD would have better knowledge on longer fasts. I'm not expecting my fast to correct hormone imbalance - just to assist it. A fast, might also be the best way to come off the drugs and help clear out your system - not sure how long that would take. 3 days isn't much and can be done easily even on a monthly basis.

How do you feel sexually after a 3 day fast?

My goal is to get my erections back ASAP. I need them right now.

Your list of priority is in wrong order, first- 1. you need to do basics first- decent diet, sleep, getting in good exercise routine
2. get into decent mental state, sort out anxiety and depression as much as you can
3. once you get to as good as it gets natural state, do bloodwork and then decide course of actions based on them


I never came across of anxious/depressed/paranoid etc... person with good libido, it just does not happen for various reasons (balance of neurotransmitters is one of them) Also for body itself libido is least priority- everything else needs to be functioning well- basically to able to reproduce body needs to survive first and whenever there is problem withing body libido will suffer

Libido is not animal that can be chased or caught, it needs to come back on its own- there is no medication really effective for curing libido, or that will permanently raise it. If you create good enviroment libido may come back.

Most important step is to accept that there will be longer period where sex/libido is not going to be good, and to work on basics, this is most simple step and most harder this is where 95% of people fail (regardless what kind of problem or disease is main cause)
you look as person who is trying to find magic pill and that kind of aproach is not going to win you battle.
Now, if you decide to get things right next few months we dont need to talk about science hormones or anything, just do basics first.
If you want to continue chasing your own tail, than good luck.

I'll leave you now for time being,
good luck, and all the best!

If its because of a girl, you'll need to let that go man. Jelisej is right, no short term solution. But to answer your question, my noctural errections seem to be a lot stronger - then again, its only been a couple days. Also, I'd stay away from Cialis or Viagra - the inhibitors encourage PDE5 production in the body over time, making it harder to get an errection. The best substitute I know of so far is Muira puama - I think it is better than Horny Goat Weed. But I dont use it for sex, I use it only when I feel I can use extra blood flow to make sure everything stays well oxigenated down there. Plus, it lowers stress when having a boner on and off for almost 4 hours.

I use coconut oil regularly and have no problems with it now, or then.

Also @cd did you see my question about holosync?

I listened to "The Dive" last night for 30 min. It just sounded like rain falling lol but was relaxing. I do believe in meditation and like ambient music

I don't understand how you have the product but don't know how to use it? It comes with full support and instructions along with a hotline you can call at anytime?

Just an update:

I feel much better today. Mood and energy levels, and small signs of life down there.

Took 15 caps of alpha hard yesterday and today.

Took 25 mg of DHEA today which made a huge difference. The poll also included yohimbine.

I think coming of alpha hard last week made the progesterone worse as I experienced a dramatic crash in androgens.

Also to note: the progesterone I used was NOT bio-identical. All I could find down here was progestogel. Not being bio-identical increased the chances of side effects.

And yeah funny the effect girls have on you. Met a few girls down here and was so motivated to recover faster I got greedy with the progestogel.
