? I have had this condition since I was about 13 or 14 [puberty?]. It is getting slightly worse as I get older.
? Symptoms start within a few minutes of an O but lasts for about 30 hours. Feeling of being drained of energy: groin area feels ?drained? depleted and ?tight?. Strange feeling. I can?t even rest by lying down on my back - I prefer to lie face down when I rest because my groin area / prostate seems to be more relaxed? Possibly because of the greater blood flow to the prostate, I don?t know.
? Flu often occur during late autumn when the virus is about. I think whatever viruses and germs are in your body at the time of O start to take hold for a while. The immune system seems to be compromised after an O. My own theory is that the white blood cells that would be used to fight infection are broken down to make replacement sperm cells. I know for a fact that the last few times I have had flu it had been preceded by an O by about 2 days each time. More recently a bowel infection followed 2 days after. For me an O definitely affecting my immune system.
? General irritabilitygreatly increases. Feeling of Anxiety also. Lack of testosterone?
? Basic co-ordination skills are impaired and I become more clumsy during the 30 hour period.
? The depth of the symptoms does vary. The longer the period between orgasms the lighter the symptoms, generally.
? My prostate becomes more enlarged and it is a little more difficult to pass water in the hours that follow. Temporary effect though
