Anyone just not have a sex drive?

[Delinquent]

I'm hoping that once my body is clean from the overuse of stimulants and alocohol, I'll get over this but I'm still concerned.

I don't suffer from any kind dysfunction just that sex seems like so much damn work. I'm fine once we get going, it just the gettin going part that's a bitch. We have sex maybe once a month because I just don't feel like exerting that much energy. I am on Zoloft but I am also taking wellbutrin to counteract the sexual sides from Zoloft.

Like I said, maybe it's from the massive amounts of alcohol and thermogenics that I have used over the years. Due to a heart scare last week, I have stopped all stims, cigs, and alcohol which I am hoping does the trick. If it doesn't, I don't know what I'll do

I am kinda in the same boat. Unless I'm on a cycle I just don't have much of a sex drive. She basically had to get me goin just to get into it. Like it doesn't excite me as much as it used to. I love her, and she is beautiful, with a great body, but I just don't ever seem to initiate sex anymore. I was on Paxil for 6 years and I attribute that as part of the cause. Even with a new parnter it's turns into the same thing after a few months. It stresses me out and also saddens me that she thinks it's something wrong with her, when it's me thats broken.

the first month or so I come off a cycle my sex drive sucks,unless the girl starts on me.

but any other time I can go 3-4 times a day easy,just lay off all the stims and see what happens,or get some v

Thats just it. I've been off cycle for half a year or better now. it's not the stims either. My sex drive is permanently fucked it seems. Everything I read about Paxil and it's sides makes me angry as hell that my doc had me on htem for so long. I don't wanna rely on Viagra or Cialis etc. all my life either. I just want my normal sex drive back.

 

[theoak01]

that sucks man,have you asked your doc if this is a long term issue? or if you will one day come back,and have you had your test levels checked?

 

[hardrock]

Haven't really addressed the issue with my doc. Everytime I see him he's running around like a chicken with his head cut off. Too many patients type thing. Think I need a new doc. Not on much of a personal level anymore like when I was younger. He knows of my steroid use and would probably just attribute it all to that anyway. I have had my test levels checked along with blood work almost every year. They come back on the low end of the scale and he labels them normal. I am working on getting on HRT right now, so hopefully this will change things. my test levels have been low for years.

 

[theoak01]

might be the test levels then,good luck on the hrt,I know I couldnt live supressed all the time

Guys....im gonna tell you something..listen up. the fucking thermos are playing a big part in this...they release a small amount of serotonin on a daily basis...this in time will deplete your natural levels. the drugs you are taking Zoloft and wellbutrin only mimic and fool the brain and the synapses pathways sending signals that everything is ok...what is needed is more or to replenish levels of serotonin...the only way that i know of,( im not well adversed in this) is to supplement 5HTP...i know there is other drugs or supplements that can do this, i just dont know what they are....im not going to go on and on about serotonin-because im sure you guys know what the function is...but put in simple terms- when good things arent good anymore- you need to get those levels back up...not everyone knows that thermos will do this, but they do if they are ephederine based or derivitives of such...and again- you have major sides with these types of medications (you mentioned) one being specific- sexual apathy or performance...5HTP is changing my life...im @ 50mgs a day...taken at night...dreams are weird, but i feel a 100% better all day...ive been on approx. 6 days, and am noticing the effects now. check it out at least...hope this helps you guys....

 

[Forge]

Nope, in fact I'm just the opposite as in I find myself horny all throughout every day. It's worsened now because of the divorce, I haven't had sex in several months. But for the past 7 years I was always willing and able at the drop of a hat.

I'm also clean and natural, I don't use any AAS or drugs of any kind. It sounds like alot of you guys are on all kinds of things, could be some side effects going on.

Thanks! I`ll look into this. I`m taking a lot of ECA and I think that in conjunction with finasteride has greatly diminished my sex drive. Lack of sleep is also adding to it but... That`s enough reasons. I`ll look at the 5htp. Could`nt hit you with k bro. thanks again.

Can you explain further exactly what`s happening with the 5HTP? Does it help you sleep? I`m having a hard time sleeping, I think it`s because of the ECA throughout the day. lol I know it`s coming..."Stop the ECA".

I have been off of ECA for a month now and I think I'm finally able to wake up during the day. Sex drive still low so I'm gonna try to get some of that 5HTP

Lately though, I have been waking up in the middle of night and realize I'm getting my fiance going and we end up fucking in the middle of the night. It's like my sex drive goes into overdrive when I'm asleep so I wake up and wanna fuck like crazy. Then, during the day, I'm just too damn unmotivated

 

[gonelifting]

Can anyone suggest a good 5htp supplement? Probably should ask on another board....

 

[SoKlueles]

shouldnt this be in the steroid place?
oh and no i odnt have a sex drive

having sex might help tho

 

[jaded]

no, i definitely have a sex drive

 

[Delinquent]

no, i definitely have a sex drive

So does my fiance. She'll just beg me to have sex and I just can't get the motivation. My fiance thinks we should be doing it once a day but right now it's more like once or twice a month

Damn bro, then we`re not on the same page here. I do it regularly, I just don`t want it all day every day like I used to. It`s definately the Post cycle and finasteride and ECA all together for me. I`ll manage my way around these things sooner or later though.

Damn bro, is your test up to normal range? Have you checked it out? I`m guessing you`re off now and are shut down or something. When I did my first (and only) cycle, I was horny as a fuck fuck. Even started a thread about it. lol

good luck bro, and give in to your woman more often. lol

I have only done one cycle man and that was like 2.5 years ago. I've only had this prob for 6-8 months

 

[Ulcasterdropout]

I should let you borrow my sex drive. It's off the hook and I'm not using it...

 

[YME]

May I ask what is wrong with 1c of test a week?

Keeps me feeling normal pretty much in every aspect. Btw, I'm 43 and did notice a drop in all my interests.

But I must not overdue, as my wife is only up for about a once a week thing.

Gone- yes, thats the reason i started taking it, for sleep...im at 50mcg right now...my dreams are different and a little intense, especially at the start.Im combining it with 1500mgs of calcium, so far so good....it took me nearly 10 days to "KICK" ECA...my vision was fucked for 3 days, and all i wanted to do was sleep....just do it bro, you will feel alot better...let me know if i can help with anything else...i wrote a fairly decent sized article on ECA awhile back...dont know where it is...it was on the womens board tho....hope you feel better...i have a real hard time gaining weight now also...too many years on ECA...its ok tho, better than having to worry about being fat, IMO....

Thanks again man. I just put in an order for 374 tabs of ephedrine but I cancelled it after they wanted photos of DL and other ID. wtf? lol So this is my starting point maybe. What brand of 5 htp do you use? I`m sure there`s junk out there that I want to avoid. What`s the calcium for, is it necessary?

I`m psyched to get off this stuff and get some sleep and shit. lol

 

[delete]

yep- last cycle of deca really did a number on me. Waited three weeks and did 2 cc of clomid to jumpstart the boys, but still no such luck. It's been 6 weeks since the last deca shot and the balls are still smaller than usual and the desire for sex is minimal. Sometimes I have to remind myself just to beat off.....now the desire for chocolate has increased.....hmmmmmm

 

[theoak01]

next time use test past the deca,and use hcg and clomid ,that is pretty much standard pct ,anything less you can expect to be shut down hard

GONE- i fucked up a little....im at 100mg total right now, not 50mcgs....sorry man...im using "vitamin worlds" product...i know a regional manager, so i know its real...friend. calcium helps calm nerves down...and helps support nerve function and a host of other benefits...combined it is a great sleep "juice" if you will....dont start with more than 50mgs....it effects the psych too much...stay at 50mgs for 2 weeks then increase to 100mgs...you will notice the change too bro....let me know...take it easy...that site was probably fake and run by DEA...watch out.

glad to hear that i'm not the only one in this shape.... killing me bro.. due to circumstances had to abruptly stop my cycle (week 12) deca 200/test 250.. no pct.. not planned that way... sex drive week 3 after cycle gone... no hard nothing... plenty of women just not much hard-ons...

 

[westfieldkid]

Its the steroids. It took me over a year of being off them for my sex drive to come back to normal on its own. I am now back to normal and would never touch a cycle again...i'd rather have sex.

Dude, you gotta go read the anabolic board. Seriously. That`s not the norm.

nah, i'd rather just not use steroids again. it fucked with my body and mind too much...it's just not for some people, like me.

This helped my sex drive, and I don't really know how or why but it is expensive at $65.

In order to understand the benefit of OPC-3, people need to understand the cause of the disease. 75% of disease are caused by free radical, the oxidation of our body is the major threat to our health. Like rust of metal, hardening of rubber.

OPC3 is the perfect neutralizer for free radical. it is 20% more powerful than Vitamin C and 50 times more powerful than Vitamin E. OPC is a complex of a specific molecule, technically known as a flavan-3-ol molecule. It is extremely unique that certain plants can bond flavan-3-ol molecules to form entirely new oligomeric molecular configurations called OPC. Two flavan-3-ol molecules together form a "dimer," and three molecules bonded together form a "trimer."
Interestingly, by itself, the flavan-3-ol molecule (also known as a catechin) is not highly bioavailable and has less biological activity than OPC in the body. However, bonded together as dimers and trimers [OPC] they become extremely biologically active in a profoundly effective way in the human body and are the source of a stunning array of proven health benefits.
In lay terms,

OPC is a natural compound present in most fruits and vegetables, and particularly in plant bark, skin, and seeds. It is not usually found in our daily diets in quantities approaching therapeutic value, and the amount present in raw food is often destroyed during cooking. However, supplementation with OPC extracted from pine bark and from grape seeds has been shown to protect against cardiovascular and other degenerative diseases and to have numerous other benefits, including: lowering LDL cholesterol levels, reducing platelet aggregation, increasing the strength and elasticity of blood vessels, helping collagen repair itself, reducing edema and inflammation, relieving functional problems associated with varicose veins, lessening the tendency toward diabetic retinopathy, and improving skin health

Not sure if this applies to everyone who posted on this thread but I would strongly suggest getting blood work carried out to find out what exactly is causing the problem.

I've just been reading on the PCT forum and I hope Jenetic doesn't mind me quoting him on this directly...:

"In order to diagnose the origin of the problem, you will require extensive blood work and a physical examination. You need to find a physician (Endocrinologist, Andrologist, Urologist) who will request for the following tests to be performed:

Fasting

HORMONE

1. Cortisol, Total
2. Estradiol, Extraction
3. Prolactin
4. LH
5. FSH
6. T3, Free
7. T4, Free
8. TSH
9. Testosterone, Total, Free and Weakly Bound
10. Hemoglobin A1C
11. Fasting Insulin

CARDIOVASCULAR

12. CBC
13. Comprehensive Metabolic Panel
14. Lipid Panel

OTHER

15. GGT Important Liver Value not included in Comp Metabolic Panel

You need to have this taken care of before anyone can provide you with an educated response."

From my experience elevated estradiol (from androgenic cycles) and elevated prolactin from AAS like deca / drol etc cause many libido problems. In addition the absence of HCG during PCT leaves your balls with a lot of work to do before they get back up to size, so recovery can take a long long time.

I can't really comment on the stimulants but I've heard that Choline Bitartrate as well as Pantothenic acid can assist with dopamine levels and get things back on track.

Hope that's of some help,

Sig

I think it's more just the aging process.

As i'm gettin' older -- my sex drive just keeps droppin'. Right now i'm a total lush and almost could care less anymore. Saturday nights i wind up spending reading a book or playing xbox. And this is from someone who used to bonk porn stars and models.

Oh how the mighty have fallen...

 

[AlphamaleStS]

There no supplementation one could take for this???? what about Tirbulus or something....?
