Question about a HPTA SHUTDOWN
other than the blooodwork...
what are "other" signs can point to ur hpta being shutdown
i guess what i mean is,,,can u still ejaculate
like if i masturbate or get a bj, my penis isnt fully hard...its like a semi hard on..
i can still shoot aload
but the semen kind of dribbles out and my dick isnt rock hard as it was precycle
order clomid to help this..
but does this sound like HPTA shutdown related....
my test is rising with each bloooodwork but still far from where it was....
my prolactin is also not an issue...cme back less than 1

just need to know this:
what is your cycle history?
how long has it been since your last cycle?
what was your pct on the last cycle you did?
have you had problems like this before?

If you did a proper PCT after your last cycle, it sounds like your body's not "back" yet. Just because you do PCT doesn't mean you're back to normal. It may take many months after PCT for your body to come back to normal. Give it some time.

Honestly, it is possible that it could be psychological...

Either are possible. I know that when I ran an abnormally long cycle I pretty much convinced myself that I couldn't get it up because I was suppressed thus convincing myself I have no libido. However, when I got drunk one night and stopped thinking about it I was harder than ever. I'm just saying it's a possibility. It obviously is also possible that you are still shut down. You could always try running some HCG with nolva/clomid and see if that helps

My endo says, a good sign of a functioning HPTA is nocturnal/morning erections. These are subconscious erections unaffected by your mind. If you canīt get these erections when you are conscious, then you have psychological interference. An erection is produced from your body/heart/feelings, if you try to produce/ maintain an erection from your mind, u will ultimately fail, because your mind will be fearful of loosing it, which is called performance anxiety.
Eazy20īs example exactly.
You have made several threads regarding the same subject(which is great, nowhere else can you ask such a q. and get tons of personal experiences while maintaining anonymity), and you sound desperate, understandably. So even if this was not caused by a psychological factor, itīs there now.
I know itīs hard, but you really should try to chill, and stop "thinking" so much about it. The natural processes are slow, and you need to give your system time to recover from the hormone havoc you created. Find some good books, sit back, relax, and give yourself a break. And as you have a shift in focus, you may discover there are other passions in a manīs life that are equally or more satisfying than sex :-))

hpta
FirstTimer 42...i def get what ur saying...and i would agree it was psycological f i couldnt get it up at all...but the problem is that my erections..even morning ones are not rock hard...
they are good enough to masturbate too....but penetration in a woman is difficault.........its almost like i get an 80% erection and it stops
im not sure if it is a blodflow isssuue or test isssue but its def not pyscological..
i just am guessing my test levels are 500 in the morning curently..which decresases throughout the day from what ive read
i may be someone who needs 800 or so to be fully horney and geta full erection etc...hopin some clomid will help

If u are in the US, look up Boston medical something.
They have a few branches.
They will during a 2 hour consultation/testing determine if u have any blood flow issues, or nerve damage, or any physical damage to your penis, preventing a full erection.
If these are eliminated, you will be left with 2 causes; Hormonal, which is the cause of only 10% of ED cases, and psychological.
Iīve been through the same as you, and it was nice to eliminate a few causes for the lack of libido/erection.

You could also do a slightly less effective test yourself, buy some viagra or cialis from ar-r and take a full dose...If you still can't get it up then with a full dose running through your veins...Then it's definitely psychological.
