help a brotha out, please, low sex drive!

**cantqwit** · 09-09-2003, 04:04 PM

ok heres the situation. juiced for 9 yrs or so. pretty heavy early the first 5 years or so test/deca cycles, winny and have used nolva,clomid and proviron too. some long cycles then as long as 6 months at a time. the last 4 years have been on and off and more recently have been off. after quiting cold turkey a while back i noticed that my sex drive was gone.as soon as i get on test again it comes back some but i dont want to be dependant on this forever. am i doomed? the thing is i havent been on for about 8 months. ive been to the dr and my test levels are low. so he gave me the test cream and i still dont have the sex drive. i quit the cream and now my "total" test is really high in the 1000's. but still i have no sex drive. what could be going on here? yes ive tried viagra/cialas and it doesnt really help. more importantly what can be done now? any thoughts or suggestions great appreciated.

Im sorry I don't have a clue on how to help you but I was wondering if you did the normal Clomid PCT when you went off your cycles before?

Anyway here's a bump for you.

Yeah also curious if you were taking something like clomid to boost test levels post cycle, sorry about that man I hope someon here can help you to solve your problem.

Could be mental..... I'm not kidding some guys but so much into trying to ge a hard-on that they can't or have a hard time keeping it.

Also by the way, does your doctor know the situation with your steroid use ? There's a post here somewhere here about succesfully restoring gonadal function (I don't remember if it was in relation to fertility or sex drive) with the use of HCG . It's a recent study if I remember correctly and it might be helpful if you showed it to your doctor, if you think it's relevant. I believe deca was the problem in that case as well.

Good luck!

I meant to add: do a search for HCG and you should be able to find it.

**cantqwit** · 09-09-2003, 06:31 PM

yea at first i never used clomid or hcg post cycle. i always tapered the first few years. my doc does know about the steroid use . he just keeps saying the cream should work. thanks for imput.

I saw that study too, but that was restoring sperm count wasn't it? I think it was like 2 months of HCG and clomid..

wouldn't take my word on it --better off searching

Your right Slangin...It was a study on restoring fertility, not libido.

Are you experiencing testicular atrophy? Are you having trouble getting an erection? Is sex drive simply lower then on test or truly non existant?

**johnsomebody** · 09-09-2003, 08:37 PM

Hey Cantqwit, here's that thread about HCG I mentioned, started by none other than Rickson (see above)...
http://anabolicreview.com/vbulletin/...&highlight=hcg

It's about treatment for "azoospermia" (absence of inspermatozoa from the seminal fluid -that's pretty far gone!) in conjunction with testicular atrophy (hypogonadism). It may pertain to you if hypogonadism is part of your problem.

That's all I can offer.

VERY VERY VERY possible. Psyching yourself out is so easily done, in the bed and in the prowl so to speak.
Are you just not getting errect or just not interested in women?

If it's the latter, keep open pornos on your table tops, so you think about it more. No joke.
