Watch out with korean ginseng, it's anti androgenic.

what does your gf say about your erection problem? isnt that bothering her?
No because I still do all types of other sh*t, lick on her neck, suck on her breasts, squeeze her butt, finger her and go down on her.. works well enough but she feels bad because she wants me to orgasm too

I heard some guys who got ED from meds become completely asexual and don't even wanna kiss and hug a woman, luckily I'm not there

My brain still wants me to do sexual sh*t with a woman even though I'm not physically stimulated much

i suggest you go to a doctor. im on TRT + taking korean ginseng and ashwaganda and i feel castrated still.
Because your neurosteroids are fucked. Even if you have 20000 ng/dl testosterone levels it won't do sh*t

Problem is I have a girlfriend now and I'm tired of having to eat her pussy cuz I can't f*** her right
Yeah pusi tastes shite and it's a beta move.
Sildenafil is your short term fix, but also good for errections if used for an extended period of time. It can be bad for people with high blood pressure or coronary heart diseases.

Did you try a PCT, I know one guy with PSSD who recovered with clomid/nolvadex cycles.

Another option is HCG and proviron. Don't think herbs will be enough for most with PFS/PSSD.
i dont know i think il wait for the doctor to see my results first

Hey bro, I’ve been through all of this sh*t before. I had persistent finasteride sides for a long time but I’ve also taken a small dose of lexapro which did lower my libido slightly.
I don’t know many mg you take but reduce slowly. I know you’re eager to come off but when I halved my 5mg dose I had mad low mood after about a month. I had to come off of 5mg by cutting a quarter off(approx 1.25mg) every month. It was a ball ache but it worked. 5mg is only half a tablet to begin with!
Regarding your sexual sides, I’d say the most important thing to do is don’t panic. Don’t get blood work, don’t invest in supps that probably won’t help. This sh*t only made me focus on the problem more and caused more anxiety. That anxiety causes ED, man. I’ve been there. I thought I was still having finasteride sides but I was just worried I was gonna have sides. It was fucked up. When dating I was just honest and said I got screwed over by medication sides. I said I’d bang them properly when they went away and then prayed lol
You gotta start making light of the situation. Tell your girl your piece is broken but you’ll make it up to her. Don’t live in shame, crack some jokes about it. That’s what I did anyway.
I wouldn’t recommended v**** and other sh*t like that. You could start to depend on it.
You’ll be okay, bro, but give it time.

You never stopped taking the meds though?

This month has been a rollercoaster lol
