A few questions and concerns

Postby Markc2008 » Sun Feb 28, 2021 11:01 am

So I have posted here before, but I’ll touch on it again. I’m 38, have some sort of neurological damage I assume from ssri usage. Ever since stopping the antidepressant cold turkey two years ago I have had severe ED, numbness in genitals, and basically don’t respond to sexual stimuli, it’s super hard to get aroused. I have had some improvement over the years but it’s been minimal. When it first happened I was completely impotent. Now I can manually get an erection alone usually with enough effort but when it’s time to have sex it’s really tough to get one going before the act. My nocturnal erections have returned with time as well although they are slightly weak and I never wake up with one in the morning. The pills have worked for the most part but now are becoming less reliable. I think purely just because it requires arousal to work and that’s my main issue. I’m making a urologist appointment this week and want to try injections occasionally. Since I can still get by with the pills occasionally I just want to supplement with the shots occasionally. So for the questions. Since I will be new to it, could I go with something like adex successfully? I don’t want to jump right to Trimix. I think adex might be easy to travel with since it doesn’t have to be refrigerated. So anyone have experience with adex? Do you guys always carry that antidote injection? Is it going to cause me scar tissue even if I’m careful and hold pressure after shot? I know some use Sudafed how helpful is that? I can fly with all of this?

You should probably be using a VED (penis pump) for therapeutic purposes.

I believe Edex and it's direct competitors are still the only FDA approved injection treatments for ED. It worked well for me but became unaffordable.

It is easy to travel with. I don't think you will have any difficulty traveling with it if in the original packaging with script info on it. If flying probably not a problem but checked luggage should be fine for sure.

Other than Pseudoephedrine pills I've never had an antidote.

The if or how quickly scar tissue question is debatable. Straight alprostadil seems to have less risk than tri-mix, etc. However, nothing is risk free and some guys are obviously much more susceptible to scaring than others. How much of that is their drug of choice, their technique, individual body make up or even just luck is an unknown to me.

In my experience the straight pseudoephedrine version of Sudafed, or generic equivalent, is mildly effective if you're not trying to overcome a huge overdose. Pseudoephedrine can cause blood pressure issues for those that have HBP.

Yeah, you can fly. It's best in checked luggage. That way you don't have to worry about agents having a bad day.

Thanks. Sounds like my best option. As far as keeping size I do occasionally use a bathmate. Not all the time, as I do still get some nocturnal erections and I take cialis pretty regularly. The pills still can work but I’ve lost faith in them being reliable.
