SEREDYN for sexual performance anxiety?

[Flavio]

My sexual health regimen (Cialis, Vigamed, Prelox, valerian) was working really well and seemed to be infallible but this weekend I had a frustrating sexual experience (anxiety got in the way again and I lost my erection just before penetration), so I've decided to add a few changes:

a) Use the cock ring again (it's uncomfortable but it works)

b) Double the dose of VIGAMED (I've been taking 40 mg but there are studies that show that an 80 mg dose is more effective and also safe)

c) Add SEREDYN

Instead of taking just valerian pills, I think I might try SEREDYN. It is a natural supplement for the treatment of anxiety that contains valerian, passiflower and L-theanine. The latter seems too good to be true: it is a vasodilator and increases the production of dopamine, the 'love hormone' that improves libido and initiates erections.

I remember when I got too nervous this Saturday something 'switched off' in my brain and I just couldn't focus on sex anymore. Who knows, maybe a dopaminergic agent is the solution for cases like mine.

I've already ordered SEREDYN online and I'll keep you posted.

Damm that happens to me all the time, right before I am about to penetrate I go soft and cannot get my mind back in focus to get it up again. I like option A cock ring, have been reading up on them and want to order one. Can you recommend a good one in particular Flavio...

Cock rings come in all shapes and sizes, it's difficult to name one in particular. I have two or three suggestions, though:

a) The ring has to be a bit tight to constrict the vessels near the surface of the penis

b) Don't wear it for more than 20 minutes

c) Try an adjustable cock ring, it is easier to put on

d) You should put the ring before the erection and not after - don't worry, the ring doesn't constrict the arteries that bring blood into the penis to form an erection

e) I prefer thinner rings, they're more comfortable



Your problem is similar to mine, Jaime: sexual performance anxiety. When I got anxious this Saturday and lost my erection, I felt a physical difference, like a brain/hormonal blockade that stopped me from reobtaining my erection.

What a terrible shame that Uprima (apomorphine), a dopaminergic drug, is no longer available! I'm sure it would be excellent for cases such as ours. Rexahn's ZORAXEL may be even better (it improves dopamine levels and probably reduces serotonin) but it's still a few years away. Anyway, I'll try SEREDYN and hopefully L-theanine will have a similar effect.

Maybe you should try VIGAMED (oral phentolamine) as well. It is an ED drug that blocks alpha receptors in the penis and inhibits the negative effects of stress hormones. I've been using it for several months, it has improved my sex life and most of the times I am able to penetrate.

Thanks for all the tips on the cock ring flavio, I am researching it all right now and looking for a good place to buy it online. Also dong a little more reading on Viagemed, if you say it blocks alpha receptors in the penis that should do it for me, I know my issue is not physical and only mental....

Keep us posted on that new drug you just mentioned. If it works, I'll give it a shot.

Willie,

I am doing allot of research on SEREDYN and have it in my google alerts, so if I see anything or hear anything new I will let you know ok. SEREDYN is going to be the next big thing for guys who suffer from anxiety performance

I've contacted the excellent Seredyn Customer Support recently and this is what they had to say about sexual performance anxiety:


«Thank you for contacting Seredyn Customer Support. To my knowledge, there is no known sexual side effects while using Seredyn. There is not enough published clinical studies indicating that L-theanine may boost sexual performance. However, anecdotal stories assert that L-theanine boosts dopamine and GABA levels which may possibly cause increased feelings and mood associated with libido. Prior to starting new supplements, we recommend that you consult with your doctor.»


They are absolutely right: raising dopamine levels will definitely improve libido, that was how the ED drug Uprima (apomorphine) worked. And I've read that boosting GABA levels can also have a positive effect.

My only concern is SEREDYN's effect on serotonin levels: most studies say SEREDYN decreases serotonin levels (which is a good thing), but some say it has the opposite effect. Serotonin has a negative impact on sex drive, this is why SSRI's can cause ED. I'm not too worried about that, though: everyone seems to agree that SEREDYN improves mood and alertness.

I don't want to get too carried away (like I did with oxytocin, which turned out to be useless) but this sounds promising. It's too good, it simply has to work.
