Tri-Mix strength adjustment

Postby happycamper59 » Fri Jun 29, 2018 11:48 am

Since I didn't get a reply when I highjacked an earlier thread (sorry), I ask this again under a new topic:

I have a date with my uro next week. I am going to ask him to up the strength for two reasons: I would like a harder erection and use less juice. The time with wood is currently 2-3 hours, and the erection is good, but could be harder. None or very little pain from the shots, so that's good. I've been shooting for a year now and my formula is 30/1/10, a standard low mix.

So, what is your guys' suggestion for me? Should I up the phentolamine to 2 mg per ml and the prostaglandin to 20, 30 or 40 mcg per ml?

Using my poor math skills, should I assume doubling the phento for duration means I can cut the amount back to about 30-35 units? And tripling (to 30 mcg/ml) the prostaglandin means I can also cut back to about 30-35 units and still should get more rigidity than the current dose? That would get me about 6 shots out of a 2 ml vial instead of 3.

Unfortunately, the frequency of use is low for a couple of reasons right now, which I hope will change in the coming months (pun not intended).

I'm not a doctor or medical professional of any kind. Anything I post is based only on my own experiences at best and delusions at worst. Always ask your doctor and follow his/her advice.

I saw your earlier post but didn't respond as I use mono-mix as in straight Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), also known as alprostadil at 80mcg per ml. I have no personal experience with tri-mix.

Due to my biased experience being a mono-mix user, I'd say bump up the prostaglandin. That should make you harder. It's also my feeble understanding that of the three drug cocktail, prostaglandin has the least risk of causing fibrosis.

As for duration, most guys would think your duration is near perfect.

I understand your desire to decrease the volume injected. I'd think you could bump all of the ingredients up a good bit. If you don't get the prostaglandin pain some guys get I'd try cranking that way up as it's generally considered the heavy hitter of the drug cocktail. Like I said, I use a mix of just prostaglandin and saline at 80mcg per ml. It works very well for me but I not one that has the serious issues with prostaglandin induced pain that 15 to 20% of the guys get.

I don't know where you get your meds but it seems many of the pharmacies just supply the tri-mix at certain standard mixes. If that the case with you, you might want to call them and just see what mixes they have available and request your doctor prescribe one of their stronger offerings.

Two other options to consider in conjunction with increasing the strength of your mix:

1) Using Viagra (my experience) along with the injections. I don't remember where but I've read medical stuff somewhere recommending that this not be done due to risk of priapism. I haven't read anywhere, other than what I've typed, recommending the practice. But I like doing it and if it's killed me it hasn't taken effect yet. I use generic stuff made in India I source through Canada.

2) Using a novelty cock ring. It definitely seems to help, most are cheap and the wife likes they way it packages things. I use the cheap silicone Lyps brand rings. One size or brand won't work for everyone so you'll have to experiment. Expect to get some losers that you'll toss in the trash before you find the brand and model that works for you. Fortunately they tend to be fairly cheap.

Good luck. I hope you get some better responses from some actual tri-mix users.

Thanks, bl.

I do use a ring. I've learned to plump before injecting, then immediately slip a ring around the boys and shaft, then massage for 4-5 minutes.

I take the ring off at that point, but sometimes put it back on later.

I, too, feel fortunate that the prostalglandin doesn't cause pain, or much. So I will ask to bump that up as much as the uro will let me. May be in phases.

Update:

Yay! My uro is bumping me up to 30/3/30. I can't wait. :D

Good deal!

How many units did he suggest you start the new mix at?

He said 50 (0.5 ml). But he also strongly suggests that I need to "experiment." So I might try 40 units with the first shot and go up or down from there (no pun intended).

correction:
I see in my patient portal that my uro prescribed 30/1/40 instead. I thought it was going to be 30/2/30. I don't know where I got the 3 mg phetolamine, since the compound pharmacy I use doesn't do more than 2. Anyway, I am looking forward to the big boost in prostaglandin, since rigidity needs the boost and not the duration.

So, what amount should I shoot first? I was at 70 units for 30/1/10. Uro says 50 units with the new formula, but experiment. Thoughts?

I have been using 40/30/2 for over a year at 3-4 units(a drop) and get 3 hours of hard but comfortable etection. My doc gave me 25 units first and ended up draining me after 4 hours.
Just be conservative. I would probably start with no more than 10 units and workmy way up.

The doctors recommendation sounds reasonable to me.
