After 2 years of lifting heavy weights and putting on some good muscle, In the summer of 2016 I decided to go on a severe calorie restriction diet. I was also overtraining cardio and stopped weight lifting completely. I was eating mostly vegetables and went from 77kg down to 61kg in about 1 month. I noticed lowered libido in sept/oct but kept going because I knew the link between dieting and libido and thought it would resolve. In december 2016 I noticed complete ed, and 0 libido and just then I realized that I did not have a morning erection in months! I finaly got an erection but noticed low semen volume, and no feeling in ejaculating with 0 force. Genital numbness then followed. I immediately knew I was in danger and began eating like a normal human being again. 2 months past and then I even thought to myself I havent had a spontaneous erection in the last 6-7 months either. I devleoped severe restless leg syndrome.
It has now been 2+ years of me stopping the diet, however the symptoms remain.
-dry eyes
-numb genitals (rubber feeling)
-low semen volume/force
-high and tight scrotum
-cold feeling in tip of penis occasionaly as well as right testicle/vas deferens
-no erection in 2 years
-no armpit sweat/genital sweat (appocrine glands)
I have never used propecia/finsateride/ssri/accutane. Never used TRT or anything either. Can someone please give me some direction as to why my body has not recovered?

I have quit my job because life does not make any sense like this. I can not find motivation to do fuck all with numb genitals, dry tired eyes/armpits/genitals. I was a very fit person before and I even developed cardiovascular issues. I got out of breath at work picking up a FUCKING CHAIR. Huffing and puffing and my testicles feel dried out and hard. No precum eitherâŠ
