Good luck with your test. The good thing
is that it's supposed to be an as-needed
and instant-working pill, so it won't take
you 3 months to test. Try to make your
tests objective as possible by not
changing too many conditions. Such as,
don't test it one day when you haven't
masturbated in a week, and then test it
again the next day after having
masturbated twice. It'll also be good if
you have a control time to compare it to,
so you know how well it works objectively
rather than just thinking "hmm, I think I
lasted longer." Using the rubber vagina
would be good, because it doesn't change
pressure. And since you're testing
something, don't actually try to last
long, make it as mechanical and identical
as possible. Same position (arms, legs,
everything), same lube, same speed, etc.
Though, you could also try to last longer
as well, but then do the same in a
control.
Now onto Prolasta. I checked out the site
and found the ingredients...
Proprietary blend of Hypericum perforatum,
Mannitol, Sorbitol, Sodium Stearyl
Fumarate, Ascorbic acid, Citric acid,
Ammonium glycyrrhizinate (liquorice
flavor) and Sucralose.
Basically, it's a collection of artificial
sweeteners and preservatives.
Mannitol, Sorbitol, Sucralose, and Citric
acid are used as sweeteners.
Citric acid and Ascorbic acid are used as
preservatives.
Sodium Stearyl Fumarate seems to be used
only as an additive to make pills. Is it
in tablet form?
Ammonium Glycyrrhizinate says what is is,
liquorice flavor.
So that leaves Hypericum Perforatum, which
is the scientific name for St. John's
Wort. An herb often used for depression or
anxiety. So essentially, this pill will be
trying to affect your serotonin levels to
alleviate PE.
So with seemingly only one active
ingredient does that mean it won't work?
No. However, it might mean that if it does
work for you that you could easily find a
cheaper solution, which is good.
The only question really is whether
Mannitol has other purposes. Because there
are so many inactive ingredients listed,
and most are sweeteners I lumped Mannitol
into this group and perhaps correctly.
However, besides being a sweetener
Mannitol has other uses. It can have
diuretic properties and can also help
deliver drugs to the brain. Even if that
were it's use, it's still likely that a
St. John's Wort product alone would have
the same effect, but perhaps not as fast.
Good luck and let us know.
Also, was it you who tried another
product, I think called Last Longer III or
something, a combination of two products?
How'd that work? Did you take it for the
needed amount of time?

wow, you really know your stuff, yes I had
ordered Last longer 3 but I never tested
it because the product said that It could
take up to 6 months for it to work which
is a joke.
I had tried anoher product that also
worked with serotonin levels, its was
called detainX, it didnt work so I hope I
have better luck with this.
Yes prolasta is a tablet that dissolves
under the tongue.

POM, i don't understand why you'd rather
try all these products of dubious origin
that have some traces of a well known
active ingredient mixed with tons of
garbage, instead of just going for a
legitimate ssri;
that reminds me of the original stamina
rx, which was very popular with health
conscious people back in the days; that
is, until some lab wanted to see why it
worked so good and, of course, they
discovered it had tons of cialis.
just because it seems less synthetic it
doesn't mean it can't kill you, really;
look at yohimbe versus viagra: even though
both work, a lot of people prefered viagra
because they couldn't deal with the side
effects from yohimbe (the natural cure).

dubious origin?? all the ingredients are
listed on teir site and like Healthy broke
down, all these things are not harmful for
your body. SSRI"S in the other hand can
cause sexual impotence if taken for
prolonged periods of time, may worsen the
problem, people feel like caca on them, id
rather not mess around with them BUT I may
have to if none of my other alternatives
work. even then, id give the stud spray a
sht before ssri's
are you one them? how long do you last and
how do you feel?
how is your sex drive?

I'd agree with POM and consider SSRI's a
last resort, but different strokes for
different folks. I was on an SSRI for
anxiety due to a long lasting health
issue, then withdrew and had a hellish
time. It wasn't until after this that I
really experienced PE and had considered
going back on just for that purpose. But
then I remember how hellish it was and
refuse to.
St. John's Wort, if it works, would be a
much safer alternative. The other
ingredients aren't necessarily healthy,
but not much different than the crap they
put in processed foods. Prescription drugs
are far from safe themselves.
Anyway, POM, prostate and histamine would
be the only physical aspects I'd know to
test, so you'd have to ask the uro. You
should also call ahead and find out what
you need to do for your diet in order to
have your histamine levels tested. Certain
foods will cause fluctuations which would
make the test inconclusive.
Physical causes are likely rare, but I
still think PE is at least partially
physical. Studies suggest that men with PE
and men without PE have similar
sensitivities, but I don't see that
guaranteeing that all bodies have the same
response to those sensitivities. Afterall,
even the average man only lasts 3-5
minutes. Which makes human a sex god in
the animal kingdom, as most last no where
near that long.
Add to that histamine, reflexive pelvic
muscles, anxiety and other aspects it
makes it difficult to pinpoint an actual
cause.

i tried bremelanotide last night, the
effect was not spectacular as expected but
it definitely did something; the side
effects were redness in the face for about
10 minutes and a mild headaches for a few
hours; i was a little nauseous too, but
far from puking.
the dose was 1.5mg, next time i'll try
3mg;
all in all, i think it's good stuff; just
don't talk with your doctor about it ; )

I would worry if something gave you
headaches. That means it is having an
effect either on your circulation (in a
bad way) or on your neurological system-
That puts you at risk for stroke, blood
clots, etc... which is probably why you
advised not to talk to the doc!!

thank you for your concern
bremelanotide has not been approved for
use in humans, so if injecting
experimental chemicals is not your thing,
you shouldn't try it; it acts on the
melanocortin receptors in the central
nervous system;
about headaches: anything can give you
one, from a cup of coffee to a couple of
beers; it's no big deal, really.

Oh I know, I get headaches all the

You know, when I looked it up and found

i just stacked breme with aspire36 (a
nitric oxide booster) and it worked great;
i was going to post a more detailed
report, but somehow i got logged out and
i'm too lazy to type it all over again;
however, i'll mention that i added a durex
performax (the one with lidocaine) to the
mix and my dong remained up and proud; as
i didn't have a girl to test the strenght
ot my erection on, i hung a big, wet towel
over it and i'm glad to report that my
tool rose up to the occasion.
btw, i've had sinus problems for quite
some time and i'm pretty sure that
sertraline is helping me with that, sort
of like sudafed does; has anyone else on
ssri noticed that side effect?

georgia, i forgot to mention: 2 hours
after taking the mix i started feeling a

check my blood pressure, just for the
records; surprisingly, it was a little bit
higher than normal (i expected it to be
lower because of the NO product); next
time i might as well take it with

Damn, inTango, you'll just put anything in
your body, eh?
Do you have problems with ED as well, or
are you just trying to use things that
maintain erections so that PE won't matter
because you can stay hard afterwards?
Also, ehealth has a tendency to log you
out quite quickly so I've gotten into the
habit of COPYing anything I type before I
hit Submit. If you don't and it asks you
to log in...don't. Hit the back button
first and what you wrote should still be

I have problems with ED too, caused by
anxiety and antidepressants (there might
be other causes too, this is what i can
think of right now; however, the plumbery
seems to be ok);
my approach on the treatment of PE is a
strictly pharmaceutical one, i don't do
the "what if i try flexing that lil muscle
down by my as$" kind of thing; and one
thing i've learned playing with
prescription drugs is that there's no
magic pill, once you decide going on some
medication that actually does something,
you'll have to either deal with the side
effects or add more drugs and so on;
pretty much like what those sings the MTA
placed all over the new york subway
(that's been under renovation for quite a
while now) say: sometimes you have to go
backward in order go to forward;
so, if the antidepressants cure the PE but
bring the ED, it's common sense to stack
them with an ED drug; based on my recent
experiments ,i'd say bremelanotide is
quite the daddy of all ED cures (for the
records, i stacked levitra with viagra and
levitra with cialis and all i got was a
burning face and a bad headache); however,
its downside (apart from any unknown side
effects it might have, such as turning you
into an alien) is that you have to plan it
all well in advance, because it takes a
few hours until you feel anything; and you
have to do it at home, unless you're
willing to carry around a small fridge...
what i'm trying to create now is a few
alternative plans for different scenarios:
let's say, if i'm sure i'll get laid, i
just go with the heavy stuff; however, if
that's just a remote possibility, i'd
rather not waste the big guns, but i still
want to be able to rise to the occasion.
usually i don't even bother with the "all
natural" cures, and i find it quite
annoying that you get so much of that junk
when using a search engine; i just need
something that works, i don't care what it
is; however, it seems that at very high
doses maca works pretty well, so that's
probably what i'm gonna try next.

Did you have ED before the
antidepressants?
Were you able to get erections alone or
with porn? So as to say, were you only
unable to achieve erections with women? If
so, anxiety related ED is common for many
men, especially with new women. It's
temporary and can be alleviated with
patience, talking, etc. and could probably
be helped by some minor relaxants until
you're relaxed enough to not any.
Dealing with side effects or adding more
drugs to relieve side effects is not the
only choice. You can try a different drug.
SSRI's are notorious for causing side
effects and withdrawals, but they're also
notorious for being very person specific.
Meaning that while one person does
horrible on a specific drug, they'll be
perfect on another. There are many choices
and you could find one that treats your
PE, doesn't cause side effects, and won't
affect your libido either. The trouble is
finding it though, as it takes time for
their effects to work, and stop working.
Side effects such as lowered libido can go
away with time as well.
If you're set on using drugs, I won't
stop, but be safe and learn about what
you're doing and the risks involved.
As for being able to get an erection
without notice, perhaps you should try
some of the "all natural cures." Unlike
Viagra, etc. they're something you take
everyday, not just when you need an
erection. Maybe they'll give you enough of
what you need to push into easily getting
erections. Stay away from ones with
Yohimbe though.
The "all natural cures" are there because
they're safer than drugs (usually) and
don't require prescriptions or carry heavy
side effects. You also don't risk such
things as strokes, blindness, and
permanent ED like you do with Rx ED drugs.
Also, how old are you and what's your
health like? A healthy diet and exercise
could always help too.

i'm 25, good health; i've been into
bodybuilding for a while now and i know
quite a lot about nutrition/ exercise/
drugs;
with antidepressants it's always a shot in
the dark, but it's ssri that have been
proved to help with PE and they all have
the decreased libido side effect (i know,
in some people they increase libido,
somehow); plus, i have no other serious
side effects, so i'll stick with the one
i'm using for now (sertraline).
natural cures are so popular because
ANYONE and their mother can mix together
some random herbs, snake oil and tiger
dic* , then type in small print "this drug
is not intended to treat, cure or prevent
any disease" and voila! you got the magic
pill, all you need now is a bunch of
desperate people to buy it; there are no
scientists involved, no controlled
experiments, nothing; you just get some
pots and pans from a dollar store and open
a business in your basement, then call it
"SciTech Laboratories" or something
similar;
true, bremelanotide along with other real
drugs have not been approved by the fda,
but neither has any of this 'healthy' junk
you see all over the place.
about "natural cures" being healthy:
plenty of stuff they sell at GNC can send
you to the hospital and keep you there for
a while; just because you can buy it
without a prescription it doesn't mean
it's harmless (and it doesn't mean that
FDA won't ban it sometime in the future);
btw, i've taken tons of yohimbe and it
doesn't do squat.
you said:
"There are many choices and you could find
one that treats your PE, doesn't cause
side effects, and won't affect your libido
either"
no, there aren't! and that's why PE is
such a huge problem and there are so many
people that would do anything to get rid
of it.
the "patience, talking etc" is also bs;
and i'm really not trying to come across
as rude or anything, but if you read this
thread (i'm pretty sure you did it
already), you'll see that talk therapy
hardly works for people who've been
married for years and have fairly good
relationships; and you're asking me to go
find a girl and convince her to sit down
and discuss my PE issues with me ?! even
if i did find her(fat chance), being in
such a relationship would totally leave me
with some sort of an emotional trauma.
besides, there's only that much you can
accomplish through practice: some guys had
tons of women and still suffer from PE;
and unless you're a shaman who's about to
spend the next 30 years in a desert
focusing on controlling ejaculation, i
don't think you'll be able to voluntarily
control it (it's like speeding up or
slowing down your digestions, for f*ck's
sake); and yes, i know that many people
have gained better control as they got
older and more experienced, but i also
know that IT JUST HAPPENED; it's not like
they made it happen.

For most cases of PE that are related to
biological and physiological issues,
(notpsychological stress), LastLonger 3
from herballoveshop DOT COM will do the
trick. Moodmax boosts your sexual well
being, pleasure, mood, and energy, while
dopafibra nourishes your sexual health to
maintain the stamina, naturally.
Is easily worth the money. I'm 24 and used
to have premature ejaculation problems
back in art college to the point where I
wouldn't even talk to the girls in my
class (and art girls are indeed
GORGEOUS).
I found herbolove from a google search and
haven't looked back since. It's worth the
money, easily, I can vouch for it
personally.
I typically prefer to take moodmax and
vitalife 4, or just moodmax by itself, but
lastlonger is a good combo.
It clears up exhaustion and PE issues, and
as a useful side effect it makes you feel
better overall.
herbolove is run by doctors, not marketers
or salesman or fake "nutrition experts"
and has plenty of articles explaining
exactly why sexual exhaustion and
premature ejaculation occur.
Herbolove products mix all of the herbs
and vitamins together that are needed,
rather than having to find the right mix
yourself piece by piece.
At the same time, as a general rule of
thumb, avoid anything that isn't made by
the herbolove brand. They have a lot of
generic herbs on there which I cannot
vouch for.
!!! Also, SSRI's are a TERRIBLE solution
for PE because they ARTIFICIALLY increase
serotonin by forcefully causing your brain
to grow new serotonin receptor cells which
cause it to constantly crave excessive
amounts of serotonin in proportion to the
dosage, thus damaging your brain.
Inevitably your brain gets immune to the
current dosage of the drug, which requires
you to take more in order to get the same
effect.
The Fact that these drugs are marketed to
everyone as a cure-all is the ultimate
pharmaceutical SCAM.
It creates a physiological addiction.
Check out Google and Erowid.org for
information on this if you think i'm full
of crap.
And to top it off, I speak from experience
in saying that SSRI withdrawals are about
as pleasant, and as healthy, as an
afternoon of electro shock.
You should only take SSRI's if you have
serious CLINICALLY DIAGNOSED manic
depression, bipolar disorder, or severe
psychosis (which only affects less than 1%
of the population, meaning if you're able
to comprehend this sentence i'm typing to
you without freaking out into a hysterical
fit, you do not have these problems and
thus you do not need antidepressant
medication).
You can create the same or better feeling
that ssri's give you, naturally, without
all of the brain damage.
Personally, with much nail-biting
withdrawal effects involved, I came off of
SSRI's because I didn't like the
artificial emotional numbness it gave me.
I felt like a robot, and because of this
grey feeling my sex life just wasn't as
ravishing and fun and playful as it would
be otherwise.
Since then, I just take moodmax for my
mood and sexual pleasure, because it feels
better and costs exactly the same as a
prescription drug.
Find what works for you, preferably
natural methods that do no harm and have
no side effects. Either way, this is my
recommendation.
Epic, but true. You can get moodmax at
herbolove dot com.

other brands.

That's true that
the companies and products can be easily
created, but it doesn't automatically mean
they are bunk. There are many studies
showing the efficacy of alternative
treatments, not to mention 1000s of years
of use. Natural products don't bring in
billions and will generally always have
fewer and smaller studies than
prescription drugs. But then again, those
prescription drugs for the most part don't
cure anything. They cover symptoms or
force something to occur in the body. And
about 50% of prescription drugs are
founded off of herbal and natural
alternatives.
Not everything
natural works though, that's for sure. Not
every product will live up to its promises
or your expectations. I've treated many
problems with alternative means, sometimes
where prescription drugs offered no help.
But I've also tried stuff that didn't work
for me. I take my health into my own hands
and sometimes I'll try some stuff that
turns out to be BS, or less than effective
in my case, and other times it's a
godsend.
The "this drug is
not intended to treat, cure or prevent any
disease" is mandated by law, not something
they're putting on to hide from
liability.
true, bremelanotide along with other real
drugs have not been approved by the fda,
but neither has any of this 'healthy' junk
you see all over the place.
I don't put any
weight into the FDA approval anyway.
They're an unconstitutional organization
that does not act in the interest of the
people or their health. The best thing FDA
approval can say about something is that
it's been proven enough to cover up a
symptom, so that selling it wouldn't be
complete fraud. It says very little about
its safety, something that's coming to
light more often lately. 100's of
thousands of people die each year from FDA
approved drugs. Not to mention, covering a
symptom is not curing a disease, nor
always healthy.
about "natural cures" being healthy:
plenty of stuff they sell at GNC can send
you to the hospital and keep you there for
a while; just because you can buy it
without a prescription it doesn't mean
it's harmless (and it doesn't mean that
FDA won't ban it sometime in the future);
btw, i've taken tons of yohimbe and it
doesn't do squat.
That's very right.
Just because it's natural doesn't mean
it's safe. And many things sold under the
guise of healthy are truly unhealthy and
unnatural. Though, I hope the FDA doesn't
ban them. Giving responsibility for you
own well being to the government is a
grave mistake.
When you say you've
taken Yohimbe and it doesn't do squat, do
you mean it doesn't work, or you mean it
doesn't cause problems? Because problems
likely occur from long term, chronic use.
you said: "There are many choices and you
could find one that treats your PE,
doesn't cause side effects, and won't
affect your libido either"
no, there aren't! and that's why PE is
such a huge problem and there are so many
people that would do anything to get rid
of it.
How do you know?
How many and how long have you tried
various SSRI's? If you're going by the
list of side effects attributed to certain
drugs, then no, there isn't one that
doesn't cause side effects or lowered
libido. However, side effects aren't a
given, and certainly not for every
individual. I was on Paxil for a week and
it was horrible and there's no way I could
stay on it. Then I was Effexor XR and
other than a temporary wane in libido, I
experienced no side effects. After several
weeks, my libido was back to normal. The
only remaining side effect (which was not
something I was looking for at the time as
I didn't have PE) was delayed orgasm, but
since that's the side effect you're
looking for that experience for you would
be called side effect free. However,
coming off Effexor was full of problems,
but that's different than a side effect.
the "patience, talking etc" is also bs;
and i'm really not trying to come across
as rude or anything, but if you read this
thread (i'm pretty sure you did it
already), you'll see that talk therapy
hardly works for people who've been
married for years and have fairly good
relationships; and you're asking me to go
find a girl and convince her to sit down
and discuss my PE issues with me ?! even
if i did find her(fat chance), being in
such a relationship would totally leave me
with some sort of an emotional trauma.
When I mentioned
patience and talking I was referring to
your ED. You mentioned it was caused by
anxiety and SSRI's. So I inquired as to
whether you had it before the SSRI's,
which leaves anxiety as a cause. I
mentioned the patience and talking as ways
of relieving pressure and anxiety allowing
you to achieve erections. Many men get ED
temporarily due to anxiety problems, and
those are ways of relieving anxiety. I
brought them up if that was your case. In
the case of PE, talking and patience, etc
can help only if your PE is anxiety
related. Though it could still do wonders
for your self-esteem and in a way, that's
what PE sufferers are dealing with.
Notice you said
"being in such a relationship would
totally leave me with some sort of
emotional trauma." You didn't say, "being
in such a relationship would leave the
woman totally unsatisfied because I
couldn't last." You didn't say, "I'd cum
too fast." You didn't say, "my sex life
would be boring and unfulfilling for both
me and my partner." No, you mentioned your
emotions. Your embarrassment, fear,
self-esteem, etc. I'm not saying don't try
to cure your PE, or PE will be cured by
talking, I'm saying PE isn't just a
problem in and of itself. And yes, fixing
PE will help such things as self-esteem,
but only to a point. Then again, I really
only brought up the patience and talking
if you had anxiety induced ED. I just got
off on a tangent. A truthful tangent
though, that I wrote more about I believe
on the previous page.
besides, there's only that much you can
accomplish through practice: some guys had
tons of women and still suffer from PE;
and unless you're a shaman who's about to
spend the next 30 years in a desert
focusing on controlling ejaculation, i
don't think you'll be able to voluntarily
control it (it's like speeding up or
slowing down your digestions, for f*ck's
sake); and yes, i know that many people
have gained better control as they got
older and more experienced, but i also
know that IT JUST HAPPENED; it's not like
they made it happen.
Seems to me there
are many people who have learned control.
Even I have myself. Question is, does it
work for everyone, does everyone have the
same cause, is everyone doing it right, do
you have the patience and drive to stick
with it. I know for myself, I've found
success, and gotten complacent as well
with others. Maybe those were the ones
that would've worked as others attest to.
I wouldn't take drugs, but I absolutely
believe that you are free to make your own
choices. I only offer my comments and
experiences as a way of providing
information and options so that others
have more info to go on and make their own
decisions.
You want to take prescription drugs and
that's your choice. I'm sure you'll find
relief as a result as I know first hand
that they work.

Hi guys! I haven't posted here in a
while. I just found this on Google. This
whole "ejaculation without orgasm" thread
seems to describe my problem a lot better
than simple PE does. I encourage all of
you to check it out. I would like to post
in the thread, but I can't register to
post right now; I sent a message to the
admin; they said they'll look in to it.
The bad news is, if you have this problem,
they haven't come across anything
particularly effective.
