Delayed ejaculation from prolactin?

[RoyHobbs]

To cut the story short... I competed in a meet in August. I was on 5iu Greys for about 3 months prior to that. Ran Test 750/wk Tren Ace 300/wk along with the GH for meet. Dropped everything but Test 200/wk and GH 5iu after. Ran that 7 weeks. Upped Test to 400. Added another 5iu GH on training days and Deca 200/wk.

Through out all this time I have had difficulty climaxing. Mostly with my gf but still noticeable when alone. Libido is good. It is always through the roof on Tren. No ED issues ever. No Cialis/Viagra. No BP issues. No other signs of high Prolactin. I am no stallion in the bedroom but I do not climax easily. This is part mental for sure as never have I with a 1 night stand and any significant other it takes a few times to be comfortable. Oral rarely does it. I am on Paxil for the last 11 years at the same dose. The difficulty is new onset since August (or at least noticed then) when my GF and I got back together after some time apart since April.

My question is I know Tren and Deca can cause high Prolactin. I have none of the most common sides of nipples, libido, ED, etc. I did some reading and see GH can also cause high Prolactin? I am stopping the GH completely to see if it changes anything. If I have to stop the Deca I will. I chose it at a low dose as a mild adjunct to my Test.

Thoughts on what (besides the psych part now that it is in my head and I am thinking about it during sex) is causing this?

Side question... thoughts on benefits of GH in the first place for a 36yr old intermediate powerlifter? I raised the dose as I entered a hypertrophy phase and wanted to put some lean size on and keep body fat at bay.


Also, I spoke with a member who's educated posts I respect and got some good info. This is just putting it out there for other opinions and also in case anyone else has experienced the same thing and is wondering.

I do tend to last longer when on tren or deca. Haven't tried to change it though so would be interested in seeing what the others have to say.

First thing you should do is go get prolactin checked. You can have results in just a few days. Then i would try some caber. What ive noticed, in myself personally, is once prolactin goes up, it tends to stay that way for a while, even after coming off everything. Caber will drop it very fast.

Also, high dose Vit b6 DOES work at lowering prolactin. If you stay on it long enough it can cause some nerve side effects.

I did forget to add that I did not get a prolactin level checked at my last round of blood work because I didn’t notice the issue. While on the Tren I didn’t notice it probably because of the huge libido increase and decreased amount of sex. It isn’t the deca IMO since this is just the start of the 3rd week on it. Though if it is a prolactin issue that obviously wouldn’t help it. I didn’t want to use caber and go down the route of poly-pharmacy if it could be avoided.

Thoughts on higher levels of gh causing increased prolactin? Or high prolactin causing difficulty climaxing vs ED/decreased libido?

I am due another round of blood work shortly and will get a prolactin level then for sure.

Might be the culprit? Can't SSRI's increase prolactin? That coupled with 19-nors probably makes it worse. Definitely check your levels...

Yes, SSRI's can definitely cause this issue. I am on a low dose of sertraline and this is the biggest side effect I noticed. I have gotten used to it though and it actually works to my advantage now lol.

 

[RoyHobbs]

Like I said though, I’ve been on the Paxil for 11yrs and the issue presented in August after 3 months on 5iu gh and coming off tren. And it got worse when I bumped the gh to 5/day + 5 more on training days. Could be coincidental but just noting.

 

[Dog-Slime]

Yes but somethings taking 2 things that can have a side effect separately but don't on there on and then combining them can trigger the effect. If you're taking SSRI + GH + 19-nors .... I'd think that might be a prolactin increasing cocktail

 

[RoyHobbs]

Ahhhh I didn’t think of it that way. 1+1+1=5 kind of thing. That would make sense. I’ll try cutting out the gh first, then deca if no change and go from there. Thanks!

I know this is an older thread but I am having these issues and not sure if prolactin is the issue. I am 53, been juicing for 34 years now and never an issue. Recently on just 250 mgs test cyp with 1000 mgs HCG per week and 2.5 ius GH/ every other day. I have the desire, no issue getting hard but the orgasm is taking a long time and the wife is probably thinking I am doing another woman.
I have a low stress job, no kids, money is fine, so stress is low. Because of COVID I haven't worked out in 3 months.
I admit, I haven't had prolactin checked in a while, but this has been going on since the last time I had it checked (it was fine).

Just reaching out for any ideas. I told the wife I may need a sex surrogate...did not go over very well.

Are you taking an AI? Low estradiol gives me this side effect. I feel best with my E2 level near the top of the natural range.

Nandrolone does this to me also, even at low doses. It doesn't seem related to prolactin in my case. Caber and prami don't help when I'm on nand.

Definitely a big chance that adding other things to your SSRI pushed you over the edge so to speak.

 

[upeccmi]

No AI, I was taking some deca added in, but stopped around 5 months ago.

Do you have recent bloodwork? Echoing what others said - Caber (real Caber) is super strong - and a bit pricey. But if you are working with TRT place, they will have it.

Prolactin will effect your ability to get hard/stay hard.
Low E's or competing Androgens, DHT will cause a desensitization and difficulty climaxing (Anorgasmia).

What about if prolactin gets too low? Could it affect sexual function in a detrimental way?

More detrimental than NOT being able to achieve an erection?

Too LOW prolactin could impair erections?

 

[TEDDEEJ]

Where to source injectable prolactin? lol

 

[upeccmi]

I have no problem getting hard or staying there. I can go all night, its the finishing that either takes forever or I just say forget it.
Sounds like a dream for a younger girl (going all night) not my wife of 25 years though
