Question about sex recovery

[shugga]

A comment in another thread has prompted a question for me. I am 30 years old, no HRT at this point, but I have an appt next week. At this age, how long should it take me to recover from an orgasm to be able to orgasm again? For example, if I have sex on Monday, I probably wouldn't be able to have sex with an orgasm again until Wednesday. If I were to masturbate on say, Wednesday, I probably wouldn't be able to have sex again until Friday. Maybe it is not quite that consistent, but somewhat close to that.
I also sometimes, even at that same type of regularity, don't reach orgasm when I have sex or masturbate. And I turn into a limp biscuit.
I'm curious as to whether this sounds "normal" or not.
Thank you.

Well it does not sound normal to me go to the sticky Tests I do and get them done make dam sure they do all of them.

I don't think at age 30 it is normal to have a refractory period of 2 days. One thing is (as we age) we might not have the urge for sex on a daily basis, but if you're actively trying whether it be masterbation or not, then I would expect things to work at least once per day. But as you can tell from this forum, even with HRT, libido is a tricky thing. Post your levels including Total E's and E2 and the more experienced guys on this forum will surely point u in the right direction.

Ironically, one of the experienced guys I was alluding to beat me to the "submit reply" button. lol

Sorry but your not doing a bad job of it.

Glad I served as an inspiration to you Shugga--I too think it should at least work once a day at our age.

At 30 years old?
At least once a day.

I was reading a hormone book a while ago and the author did studies on men and masterbation.
He suggested that men with low testosterone actually could achieve an orgasm watching porn quite normally.
But men with low testosterone had a problem with ejaculation using no external stimilus (porn) and only using fantasy.

Low estrogen or high estrogen can kill libido.

Good luck.

At 30, I could do it at least once per day, but often it would have been twice. So I would say you have a problem.

Problem for sure. But the TRT thing is beyond tricky in my opinion. I have tried shots, gel, hcg, and now recently arimidex.....but still cant seem to get things consitantly good (i.e. sexual func). Everything else is awesome, and I just recently added arimidex. Things were going smooth, sexual func improved with the adex, until perhaps the dose was too high and suddenly without warning:-/ had problems with ED. So back to square one I guess, but I am begining to think that things will never get right.

Novice, since you were manipulating estrogen w/ arimidex, did you at least try Phil's approach? (using morning wood as a relative indicator) Because it seems that the window of opportunity with estrogens is narrow,and you run the risk of either lowering it too much or not enough if ur not monitoring it constantly.

I will tell you something that is damn wierd about morning wood w/me. I am not saying Phils approach is not correct. It surely means something but in my case I am not sure what. If I am on HCG you would think tht things would be going well and I would have wood on a fairly regular basis as long as I am not primary. The funny thing is that when I come off of HCG I get morning wood. HCG does not raise my T levels although I feel something when I am on it. I can get a woody when on HCG and keep it up longer than with out but when I go off of it the very next morning I wake up w/a woody. My E2 is in check as well so that is not it either. Just goes to show how fickle the human body is.

Paul that is odd what does of HCG are you on. I do know from talking to David Z and how it worked for me that doing HCG your going to have a bigger problem wtih E2 going up it is a given. If could mean your E2 is spiking on HCG and going off drops back down. E2 does move up and down fast.
