Med increase/change?

Postby trucxrule » Thu Jan 16, 2014 1:14 pm

Greetings:

I'm weighing out the option to implant but currently injecting straight Alprostadil - mostly as a maintenance routine & to keep in practice ( not currently dating). My uro I expect will resist implant option at this early point. As I get closer to stepping out again I have been weighing the results of my treatment - currently 20mcg / .6 thru 1 full cc. When I start to have sex again I want a good experience of course. Journaling my results I found that I do always get a response & usually within 10 minutes but the erection quality is not a 10. That means good enough to masterbate and prolly enough to penetrate but not fully rigid .Also that going from min to max on dose has no real effect on duration or quality or erection . Erections gone in about 1 hr or after orgasm. I have a Uro appoint in 3 weeks to discuss this and implants. Would it be advisable to ask for Trimix or maybe go to a stronger strength lower dose Alprostidil , say 40mcg since I topped out already on my current script ?

I have no experience with the one formula, but I'd recommend what I'm taking in Trimix.
I've posted the formula several times; good luck.
I personally wouldn't rush into implants, although some are happy with them.

Hi T 1 ,

Appreciate the remarks. Seems that anytime I post I hear pretty much Trimix. If I had any concerns , based purely on experiences here and a few studies I found online it would be this regarding Tri vs PGE 1.
Trimix is known to cause priapism and / or extended duration erections. Alprostidil not so much of either. Also it's been thought by the med community that Tri's two extra components , Phen & Pap may promote scar tissue from acidity.

Alpeostidil is thought to be the heavy lifter if you will of the vasodilator meds producing the ache yes but also the erection. Seen here guys seem to use very low components of each med n low overall dose but still get rock hard ridiculous erections that last for hrs on end( maybe overkill for some of you but a def perk to me ). If my uro feels scar n peyonnies risk too high with tri I will stick to what I have ( basically Caverject/Edex).

Trucx,

I am using plain Alprostadil ( what the heck is Alpeostidil?? -- some czechoslovakian brand!! just kiddin ...) and sometimes it seems at first 10 minutes it is not really going to make 100% but then when we get to rockin' and rollin' the added stimulation tends to send it over the top to 100+ % ...
I think I am using around 20mcg per shot -- not quite sure as I make up my own solution from Concentrate...

There's 1-2 hrs at usable hardness .. and twice that long just really firm plumpness and great for walking/showing off on a nude beach -- wish we had one of those around here in New England!

Jim,

Sorry about the typo's .What you describe sounds like what I experience . It's only when I stimulate that the results start to improve some. 1 hr to with some tumescence without rigidity toward the end of the window. I saw a report once that found that increasing strength of this medicine past 20 mcg generally doesn't produce noticeable gains in the majority of subjects in that test. My prescription is prepared and ready to use from the pharmacy. If I understand it right for every 10 units I inject I receive 2 mcg of the PGE 1 / hence a full syringe is 20 mcg . I might as well dial back to 60 units minimum as per my prescription and stretch it out if the results are the same. Thanks for giving me some results to compare to.
Trucx~ ;)

I sorta have the same experience you guys have.
I get a pretty useable erection shortly after injecting and it's good enough for sex and does seem to strengthen.
My wife gets tired if I've not finished and wants out usually after 15 minutes.
We usually go back to sleep and when I wake up it's very hard.
I get her to hold it and it turns her on for great sex.
She professes to not like seconds, but can't help herself.
I really hope this trend continues, because I really enjoy it and I think she does also and knows I do.
Sorry to get a bit graphic, but it does pertain to the topic for a change lol.

That's pretty much the drill when you're trying to dial in the dosage.
I went all way to .40 with my first formula, and then had to get a stronger formula.

The whole trick is to get the dosage right and injected correctly trimix is not a problem,I took it for years and had almost no scar tissue,but I went directly by the directions. I have also used caverjet, but it is rather expensive,my dosage was 20mcg and I could have went higher. You do get use to all of it after awhile ,I finally decided to get a an implant Dec 5,2013......I now have a railroad spike with the Titian my dr implanted :D
