Hello Demo,

It would be wonderful if we could fund another POIS research grant!  There is a $35,000 minimum for issuing a grant ($30,000 for the grant award, plus a $5,000 administrative fee).

Donations can be made to NORD's POIS research fund by navigating to https://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/51076/donate_page/research-program and selecting POIS from the research fund drop-down menu.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions!

Best,
Allison

10 years of significant POIS-reduction, treatment consisting of daily (365 days/year) testosterone patches.

TRT must be checked out carefully with your doctor due to fertility, cardiac and other risks.

40+ years of severe 4-days-POIS, married, raised a family, started/ran a business

Nice idea ..as I know we are around 600 registered members.

Roughly speaking 50 $ each will collect 30,000 $.

I'm ready to participate and I see we should try to spread the link to everyone who could help in this.

could anyone tell me what exactly happend with the old refund...?

I think the very small "refund" is held by NORD in 'funding for a 2nd Grant'. About $200 USD if I recall correctly.

Hi All,

Regarding the donation for the new research program, should we just use the provided link and donate? or to let forum moderators to coordinate with NORD first to initiate the donation program?

And also is there a possibility to grant forum moderators a privilege to monitor the progress of the donation process?

Jimmy, it's all set up to accept donations, but maybe we should wait to see the rationale for the delay in the current Study before we start donating again? :)

I would consider getting involved if you guys would change direction of the research..
POIS sufferer for over 3 decades. Has progressively gotten worse over the years and I became completely disabled around 2011. My case of POIS is very severe.
