Guys I would like to describe my situation, I think it's similar to what you are discussing.
Idk if I have vericose or spider veins but here is what happens when my condition is at its worst

- penis gets so small and hard
- 3 penis veins look very enlarged (top and both sides) and they start from the base and get smaller as they move towards the tip of the penis.
- my balls hang VERY low, it's like they are trying to escape the inflammation and heat generated from whatever is wrong in my pelvic area
- brutal premature ejaculatuon and pre cum as soon as I get aroused

I would say that I'm in this state about 80% of the time.

I was able to cure this condition for ONE month only in July of last last year. (Except for premature ejaculation) but my penis was full and hanging very low

I was taking so many things but mainly these
- phenibut every other day
- prescript assist probiotics
- I had just finished a 8 day course of Quercetin+ bromelain . So it's after I stopped taking quercetin + bromelain that I noticed improvements
- 15 mg of zinc gluconate daily(whole month)
- sulbutamine on and off

I know these are too many variables so I tried every on on its own.

Phenibut stopped working for me and makes me feel tired and stupid

Prescript assist makes my bloating, sibo, and constipation worse.

Quercetin * bromelain make me so anxious and gives me insomnia (COMT inhibitor?) (green tea gives me the same side effect)

I have also taken zinc alone before but never this long. but it always made my penis look much worse on its own, especially in the beginning.

Sulbutamine was great at first but made depression worse later


So as you can see, Idk which one of these fixed me for one month. But all of these improvements disappeared as soon I started taking Iodine drops which crashed me like nothing else did.

Anyways I just wanted to give an introduction, you can see more details about me if you visit my thread.
Never give up guys. We will find a way out.

Other times when my flaccid penis looked normal for a few days

- when I first took candidaFX, my urine started to burn and I had normal flaccid. Later on it made things worse. Improvements didn't last for more than one day

-when I abstained from masturbation and marijuana for 4 days and then took sulbutamine, vitamin D, nuun electrolyte, and potassium pills. All on the same day gave me back my flaccid hand AND libido for a few days. I never replicated that experiment unfortunately because I felt horrible mentally.

-PANTETHINE gave me good results but it was very inconsistent

I am thinking that the possible causes are:

cadmium toxicity, My blood levels of cadmium tested high two months ago.
Any of you is a long time smoker? I know I am

Aluminum, I have high hair aluminum. But I suspect that something went wrong during the test. Because my AL levels are astronomicaly high

Bacterial infection, took many antibiotics they always make things worse

mold toxicity, I lived in an a moldy house before. My current home might have it but I don't see it.

pfs (not sure about this one),

pelvic floor imbalance (from over masturbation and bad lifestyle) I also have flat feet so it's possible that my entire alignment is messed up. Also my penis gets better only when I am urinating

And now my head hurts lol

After my initial finasteride crash, I crashed again when my doctor gave me iodine. The crash was awful and I have not recovered. It put me into a worsened state of PFS from which I have not been able to make any improvements.

I took many things that set me back. Iodine is the worst, and basically erased any all the gains that I made. The first three days I felt great (not sexually) but my face looked so young, Circles under my eyes were gone, and no more bloating. But then it all went to hell and body was freezing cold for days just shaking from being cold. Face looked worse than ever and I lost the improvement in flaccid size and erection quality.

I am not sure but it could be that iodine moved heavy metals and put them in the wrong place? Or that it damaged my weak kidneys somehow. IDK just speculation

That is my speculation as well. Shrinkage worsened considerably after taking iodine. Not sure why. By the way my ARL results do not show high levels of cadmium. Would be nice to get thoughts from @mattyb and @Helen and others.

From what I understand cadmium doesn't typically show up in a hair test. I tested my blood for minerals and it was high there.

As for iodine, I also think it's possible that our adrenals or kidneys couldn't handle the massive detox it induced.
Have you ever tested prolactin or reverse t3? Mine are always high with normal tsh which I've read indicates that the body is under stress
Feel free to take a look at my hair test and let me know if you see any similarities.

Checked out your labs. Where your ratios are low or in range, mine our high. Where your ratios are high, mine are low or in range.
I would like to post mine as well but I don’t know how to. Can you walk me through the steps of posting a pic? I use an iPhone (not sure if that matters).

Take screen shots of the report, Click on attach files below, select the picture from your iPhone library to attach, and make sure to click on "full image".

That’s the method I’ve been trying but it keeps telling me the file is too large.

Strange, are you taking the screen shot from your I phone? it shouldn't be large.
Yes directly with the iPhone. I can’t figure out why this isn’t working. I’ll keep trying.

Figured out how to post my ARL results. If you’re interested to compare our results please check out my log and let me know your thoughts.

Which Iodine did you use? I use Info Wars Survival Shield X2; doesn't seem to offset anything at all.

I believe DHT is essential for penile tissue health... there's a study on rats that proves that without DHT rats' penises collagenize, i.e. get scarred. Will edit this later and ad a link... I'm on the go right now...
Yes it is. Also FYI and for the Thread, Nitric-Oxide under normal circumstances, in a HEALTHY individual inhibits The RhoA-Rho-Kinase (ROCK II) pathway to ENABLE Erectile Function...so deficiencies in this OR Androgens BOTH will lead to the same result.

Eur J Pharmacol. 2002 Mar 29;439(1-3):173-4.
Nitric oxide inhibits RhoA/Rho-kinase signaling to cause penile erection.
Mills TM1, Chitaley K, Lewis RW, Webb RC.
Author information
Abstract

The RhoA/Rho-kinase pathway mediates vasoconstriction in the cavernosal circulation. Inhibition of this pathway leads to penile erection in the in vivo rat model. These studies examined the hypothesis that nitric oxide (NO) inhibits RhoA/Rho-kinase signaling as part of normal erection. The results show that NO causes increased intracavernosal pressure and that this response is potentiated by prior treatment with a threshold dose of the Rho-kinase inhibitor, (+)-(R)-trans-4-(1-Aminoethyl)-N-(4-pyridyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide dihydrochloride, monohydrate (Y-27632). These results support the hypothesis that NO inhibits Rho-kinase-induced cavernosal vasoconstriction during erection.

I suppose you could use a combination of Reishi Mushroom Extract [1] and Terminalia Chebula Extract [2] to sufficiently inhibit/block Rho-kinase (ROCK II).
Terminalia Chebula definitely works, but at HIGH-ASS Doses. Using both might work better. But I've never tested the theory beyond anything as I've never had a need to. Ya'll would be better Test Candidates.

Isn't reishi a powerful 5ARi?

Well the Human Studies show no change in Serum Testosterone levels [1]. You would think given the Reputation it would go UP (if 5-ARI) or down if it shifts the Androgen:E2 Balance. With that being said, I'd be careful of doses any more than 500 MG / day. Terminalia Chebula (Haritaki) should be the Predominant ROCK II inhibiting herb, as outlined in My Article; Natural Rho-Kinase Inhibitors. I also wrote one on Terminalia Chebula's mechanisms.

So what causes shrinkage of the testicles and penis? Lack of DHT? Or more likely lack of 3adiolg?

Penile shrinkage is usually low DHT or low Nitric Oxide, testicle shrinkage is usually low total Gonadotropins and high E2 and / or low DHT.
If the testicles are soft and sensitive, probably low DHT owing to a sensitive scrotum and / or low scrotal contraction which can be low Epinephrine/Norpinephrine.
