I'm 62 and have had ED for about 30 years. Looking back, I can see roughly when it gradually began and continued to slowly get worse over time. When Viagra and Cialis came out, they were miracle drugs for me - I couldn't have been happier with their performance. However, their effectiveness...

Friends, Hope all's well. I'd be happy to hear people's experiences with unconventional treatments for ED, such as: Pelvic Floor Therapy for Men/ED (most curious about this due to some pelvic pain) Shockwave Therapy (somewhat curious due to reasonable prices if done at home, such as the phoenix...

Just putting my feelers out there before I experiement myself. Has anyone used both PT-141 and Trimix? Since they work on seperate systems I don't think there will be much of a chance of complications but just curious what you guys think. Thanks!

After taking it for less than 2 weeks, I've given up TRT androgel testosterone therapy since hair loss is a symptom I cannot risk possessing. Recently I read an article about a med that docs prescribe to boost dopamine levels in the brain that in turn boosts libido. Sadly I can't find this...

Hello, I’ve had a lot of erection success using the “Gene Stack” referenced many times on this site. My question is this: Is this the sort of protocol that can be used long term or indefinitely, or only as needed for scheduled or likely sexual occurrences? I’ve used it for months and hope...

Guys - realize this is a long read. Hoping for some help. I am 33 years old and have been on a stable TRT protocol for 3 or so years now. Recently, I’m progressively unable to achieve a solid erection. In my most recent consult in March, my doctor (who is great and well respected here) added...

I am experiencing some symptoms that I suspect are related to high E2 -- but I also wonder if low E2 could be the cause. I'd appreciate any thoughts from the hivemind here. Current regiment: T Cyp 200 mg/ml and HCG 400 iu -- both twice weekly. Also take .25 Anastrozole twice weekly, taken at...

I have been on a stable TRT protocol administered by one of the more reputable physicians often mentioned on this forum, but have been chasing ED issues since the beginning. Most recently, I was having issues getting physically aroused, and would lose my erection during intercourse, which is...

Hello everyone, I am wondering if anyone has had a similar experience, if this is normal or unusual. And if anyone has a suggestion as to the possible cause. I started TRT almost 1 year ago after my ED had gotten so severe that PDE5's didn't work very well. About 10 days after I started, my ED...
