Can you keep going after cumming? What changes?

A few things:
One of the things we are dealing with here is the male refractory period, a time after orgasm when the body is dealing with a release of the hormone prolactin. That particular hormone is one that kills off libido and makes the glans very sensitive- to the point of pain. At least that is my experience. But after 20 minutes or so I can once again get hard and get back in the game.
I hear from writers like Dan Savage that the refractory period is "modifiable by owner". If one continues stimulation through the resolution phase, we can modify it so it is shorter and less intense. Do any of the men posting to this thread have experience with this? I'd be interested in hearing your experience.
On another note, I chuckle when I hear the comments of "roll over and try doggy style." We tried that for a while but found a problem... she started barking and chasing cars.

Another thing to lessen the refractory period if you can get a doctor to prescribe it: A prolactin supressor, namely "Cabergoline".

I've been taking Cabergoline for about 6 months now, 0.5mg dose twice a week (BIW) and it has made me almost "hyper-sexual". None of the disinterest and fatigue guys get during refractory period seems to affect me now. Before Cabergoline, if I was masturbating to porn or whatever, I would totally lose interest and watch TV or do something else immediately after cumming. I was no longer interested in anything related to sexual matters once entering the refractory stage.

Now while taking Cabergoline I discover I'm still watching whatever I was before and I still can and do engage in activities I would have never considered after orgasm before starting the drug.

Cabergoline is used in women to affect their lactation. In men with anorgasmia or delayed ejaculation, there has been some anecdotal and a small sampling of clinical evidence of Cabergoline helping to lessen delay or to permit orgasm when anorgasmic. That's why I started taking it and although I've seen less than desirable results in that department, I'm more than satisfied to continue taking it despite the cost (non-insurance price is about 25.00/pill unless using GoodRx discounts). My two-month Rx (16 pills) was about $16.68 after GoodRx discount, or slightly more than $1.00 each.

Honestly, I've found that continuing is pretty straightforward for me, if it's vaginal or anal sex. Just stay in as deep as your partner is comfortable, and the sensitivity should pass within 30 sec to a minute. It's a totally different story if orgasming from oral or manual stimulation, as those are both generally more intense sensations for the glans. You still won't feel nearly as motivated to have sex for quite some time (depending on your hormones), but the implant means you don't necessarily have to be focused on getting off to give your partner all the stimulation they need to be satisfied.

Your mileage may vary of course! Everyone's a bit different in this regard.

But - dopamine plays a predominant and primary regulatory role in prolactin secretion. High prolactin levels are almost always associated with lower dopamine and lower testosterone levels. And vice versa. Implying that those of us who may carry a particularly energetic and high native dopamine production, for whatever reasons (and high testosterone levels) may be impacted only minimally by a prolactin-driven refractory phase.

This sort of makes sense to me. I've always felt my dopamine levels must be on full blast. Like...my entire life. Once my testosterone replacement (for primary hypogonadism) was dealt with, the rest of that chemical puzzle seems to now make sense I think.

I don't really feel a refractory period. Like someone else said...maybe I stop thrusting and remain still for 30-60 seconds but that's about it, otherwise I want to go again. More. Prior to implant this was all the same experience, except for my increasingly uncooperative penis not being able to perform the tasks my libido and mind were telling it to...
