Marijuana and Libido?

I learned a little bit about ED meds before I went on testosteron, thank God. I now think of them as a party drug. I need extremely low doses even for that. Every one of the ED medications out there come in several strengths. the maximum strength for Viagra is 100 mg. Anything between 25 and 100 will work depending on you. But if you’re taking a 50 mg pill and getting semi hard take a 100 mg pill. I personally think it’s very important for you to get your confidence back. so if you can get your hands on an injectable product called Trimix get it. I’m told it’s actually what the porn stars use. inject in penis rockhard instantly lasts one half hour per injection. Yes that sounds horrible but it’s important to get your head back on right. Get a good girl and this will all go so much easier but it’s so much easier to get a good girl if you can perform normally in bed

thanks fam, i appreciate it.

I woke up at 4.30am today, from 7am to 9am I had an intense workout. At 10.30am, on an empty stomach, my oral mouth temperature is 98.7

Any chance of thyroid issues?

Im getting my bloodwork done this week and have an appointment with a hormone specialist in 20 days

Note that I am asking for two temperature readings per day, to catch the low and high temperatures.

Please read the stickies found here: About the T Replacement Category - #2 by KSman

Evaluate your overall thyroid function by checking oral body temperatures as per the thyroid basics sticky. Thyroid hormone fT3 is what gets the job done and it regulates mitochondrial activity, the source of ATP which is the universal currency of cellular energy. This is part of the body’s temperature control loop. This can get messed up if you are iodine deficient. In many countries, you need to be using iodized salt. Other countries add iodine to dairy or bread.

Temperatures are still at 98.2 upon waking up and about the same at afternoon.

Did all my blood work again, even got thyroid tested this time.

Follicular Stimlating Hormone (FSH) : * 0.92 mIU/ml (Referance Range - 0.95 - 11.95)

Total Testosterone : 503.81 ng/dl (Referance Range - 47.01 - 980.56)

Leutinizing Hormone (LH) : 3.25 mIU/ml (Range - 0.57 - 12.07)

Oestradiol (E2) levels : 28 pg/ml (Range - 11 - 44)

Free Testosterone : 7.60 pg/ml (Range - 3.84 - 34.17)

Di Hydrotestosterone : 660 pg/ml (Range - 250 to 990)

Thyroids
Total T3 (Tri-iodothyronine) : 105.15 ng/dl (Range - 58 - 159)

Total T4 (Thyroxine) : 5.14 ug/dl (Range - 4.51 - 11.66)

Ultrasensitive TSH : 3.158 uIU/ml (Range - 0.35 - 4.94)

What do i do now? This seems like secondary hypogonadism to me. Do i need to worry?

What time did you get the blood test? How often do you drink alcohol? Did you drink the night before the blood test? Do you take opiates? Regularly for pain, or recreational?

hey guys i went to the endo and she asked me to do the brain MRI , this is the report, i seem to be fully healthy and functional, i guess?

I’m going to show the doc my reports in a few days, but im really worried so i could use some input from you guys about this…

Thought I’d give you guys an update.

Marijuana does, in some individuals, supress production of certain hormones, including but not limited to FSH.

I am now 6 months sober, been training a lot harder, and more consistently and have seen my libido return.

I hope this information can be useful to some of you, especially the younger generation in the future. Lesson learnt.

Very well done staying off cannabis for 6 months!!

Are you going to get complete bloods done, again?

That’d be helpful to you & us as well. It’d be very interesting to see the hormonal effects of 6 months off cannabis.

yes, i will, soon.
It has been very recently that i have been able to get back to working out, staying off alcohol, etc.
as of today, i am 5 weeks sober from all substances, train 2-3x a week, no smoking, just work.

The only difficult part of my life is balancing work with hobbies and spending time with the family and girlfriend.
I have to work to eat, have to have some hobbies as it keeps me going and help maintaining sobriety, and obviously i cant neglect family. As a result there are many days when i sleep for just 4-6 hours and it keeps my energy levels a little low :frowning:

Hopefully in another month i shall be in much better shape, learn better balance, and will do bloodwork before i start a basic Test cycle

I heard sex on cocaine is a helluva a thing

You’re going to do a supra physiological amount of Test after all that work & patience? Don’t do it !

while i agree that it may seem unwise, pursuing bodybuilding is the only thing that has kept me going and has motivated me to get sober.

I’ve been into fitness since the age of 13 and its the only lifestyle i know.
When you take that away from me, and i dont have a goal that im passionate about, i feel lost and lose my path - and thats exactly what made me such a heavy stoner in the first place.

Its a vicious cycle. But im patient, i’ll take my time to fix my body and do it in the most safe and healthy way possible
