Hey guys,
I've been dealing with fluctuations in my sex drive for almost a year straight now. And the depressing thing about it is that it has been anywhere from 0% to 50% tops. I have had issues both on AND off cycle. I am pretty much never horny, ever. I've gotten blood work 8 weeks into a cycle and my test was over 5,000. My estradiol was in range, but my prolactin was just under the normal range because I was taking caber for a few weeks prior to the blood work. The reason I was taking caber was because my sex drive fell all from the start of a cycle with deca (no surprise there). But I don't know anyone who experiences sex issues for long periods of time both on and off cycle.
My dick has gone down in the middle of sex with my girl numerous times. I am literally nervous to have sex because I'm afraid it's going to happen again. I tried cialis but that doesn't help sex drive, it just helps maintenance of an erection. But if you have no sex drive and can barely get it up cialis is worthless.
I am currently finishing my last week of post cycle hcg, then starting my pct of clomid and nolva this coming monday. My cycle was:
Week 1-4: 400mg Test E a week, 400mg EQ a week, 50mg Tbol a day.
Week 5-10: 500mg Test E, 500mg EQ, 0.5mg adex a week, no orals.
Then I waited 2.5 weeks clean, and started hcg 750iu 3x a week for 4 weeks (ending this week). Still taking 0.5mg adex a week throughout to control E sides.
I'm starting pct this coming Monday 100mg clom/40mg nolva first week, then 50/20 for the last 3.
Then I plan on getting a FULL blood test a couple weeks later.
The reason my sex drive fell in the first place was because I was running sust and deca last year with nolva during cycle, and no caber i think (I knew nothing about this at the time, I was an idiot). I'm assuming this shot my prolactin through the roof. I also did not run hcg or a pct after that cycle because I aborted the cycle early as I was barely getting results and thought my cycle was diluted or a fluke. I was frustrated and literally just cut the cycle early (10 weeks or so). A month later I crashed hard and stayed off for 6 months hoping my body would eventually recover itself. It didn't. So I got back on the test/eq cycle stated above (in which I'm now coming off of) in hopes that if I run a proper pct it may bring me back up. I am hoping that now that I am running a proper pct coming up, that my body will feel normal again.
But my main question is, is there anything else you guys know of that plays a role in sex drive other than your test levels, estradiol levels, and prolactin?? My sex drive has not been over 50% in a year, whether my test is high or low, and I just can't seem to figure this out. It's depressing and my anxiety is high. Feeling like an asexual is creepy as fuck and I don't want this shit to ruin my relationship and sex life in general. Any feedback is much appreciated.
