Hello, I found out that what I have is called POIS recently, since puberty this syndrome has been ruining my life, and I didn't knew what it was, why I had that symptoms, I also have asthma, when I make strong exercises like running, I have the asthma reaction, and the asthma is worse when I'm in the 3 day POIS period (or maybe that "asthma" is just part of the POIS and not real asthma... idk)
When I'm in the 3 day POIS period I have the next symptoms: brain fog, physical fatigue, runny nose, insomnia, stiffness and pain in muscles and joints, high anxiety, fingertips dry up/burning, impaired memory, itchy eyes. All of them are mentioned in the next post http://poiscenter.com/forums/index.php?topic=2338.0, It would be POIS type 1 & 2. But I also have symptoms that aren't mentioned like: dehydration (in all the body, including the eyes and mouth), slow breathing, swollen eyelids and irritated and dehydrated lips.
I also have oily skin and hair but I don't think is related to POIS.

Some years ago I didn't knew what was causing this, in that years I watched porn very often and the POIS effect was daily, so I was having the POIS thing always, and was horrible, I didn't realized that was due to masturbation and ejaculation until I stoped to watch porn very often, I started to think that it was a normal consequence of masturbation. Since then I've tryied to stop to masturbate, so I have been tried to masturbate the less possible.
Sometimes I have dreams where I end up ejaculating, and is something I can't controll, since they are dreams, and then I wake up with the POIS period and it last 2-3 days.

I've read that the diet can help you to make the POIS less horrible, In the forums it says that you need to avoid sugar, grain and soy, also just eat boiled eggs, what about scrambled eggs?
Can someone recomend me a post about the diet based in my symptoms?

I also want to ask If there's a way to reduce the POIS effect when you already have it, I don't want to always wait 3 days to be normal again, I want to know if there is a solution to have more energy, less brain fog and less itchy eyes, I want to live a normal life.

What I've been doing to avoid the horrible POIS effects is abstinence, but somethimes I cannot control that since I ejaculate while i'm dreaming because of the dream... and that can be very randomly and can literally ruin the next 2-3 days.

So, in conclusion, I want to know
*How to prevent the effect based on my symptoms
*Is it possible to have more than one type of POIS, and what to do in that case
*What you can do if you already are in the POIS period to feel better

I'm really desesperated to find help since I've had this since puberty, and it is ruining a lot of moments, It already ruined a big part of my life, and I don't know what to do, I'm very happy to find out that I'm not the only one and that there is this forum.
The english is not my first language, sorry if I have grammar errors, If you can respond in spanish that'd be great, if not, then english is fine.
I appreciate your attention and I hope someone answers soon as possible since I want to stop the POIS effects that I'm having now.
Thanks.

Hello ElVelero, and welcome to our forum. I will answer you in Spanish, since it would be better for your understanding. I think there is a thread for Spanish speakers, but what I am going to tell you is already known by the rest of the forum. For other forum users: I will tell him about some important threads and I will let him know about niacin, so he can get in touch with a doctor to try any of the recommended options.

Creo que deberías mirar los posts de Quantum (hígado: http://poiscenter.com/forums/index.php?topic=2431.0 ) o GoingLessCrazy (sobre dieta y eliminación de ciertos componentes). Yo te puedo decir que a mi y a otros miembros nos ha funcionado siempre tomar niacina con efecto flush o ruborizante (Vitamina B-3) una hora antes del Orgasmo, consiguiendo ese mismo efecto flush. La puedes comprar de Solgar o Nature's way (100 pastillas de 100 mg) y a mi me funciona sólo con 200 mg. Tomándola antes del O. y siguiendo el protocolo, elimina totalmente mis síntomas. Lo mejor es siempre comentar estos pasos con un doctor, aunque en principio no es ningún tratamiento agresivo, podría provocar alguna alergia.

Saludos y esperamos tu respuesta.

Let your doctor check you for eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) when asthma like symptoms flare up. This symptom could be caused by activation of eosinophils.

Hi ElVelero, and welcome on the forum!

Unfortunately, the POIS Type Chart is an ongoing project, and is not ready yet to pinpoint a particular method of relief based on one's symptoms list, but I hope that it will eventually be able to do such a prediction.

For now, you can safely try some of those methods, one at a time for a certain time, ans see which one will help you.  Observer has already talked to you about the niacin method, and it could be a good thing to try first, since it has helped many POIS sufferers ( but not all).   If niacin is not effective for you, I would suggest trying an anti-inflammatory ( like ibuprofen, naproxen, or celecoxib,..) before O, if you have not contra-indication for it.   In third place, I would try the antihistamine protocol, also found in the chart you have linked too,

Usually, methods using a supplements need that you take then about 1 hour to 30 minutes before ejaculation for them to be more effective.   When you have an ejaculation while sleeping, you cannot do that , but when that happens, you can take what gives you relief as soon as you wake up and realize that you had a NE ( NE= nocturnal emission, and whenever you read a post about "NE" or mentioning "NE" on this forum, it refers to exactly that - an ejaculation that happens during sleeping/dreaming  ) .   

I hope you have something to try in order to lessen the negative effect of POIS on your life.  I sure hope one of these methods, or a combination of them, will bring you some relief.

About what to take for symptoms relief when you are already in POIS, you will have to do some experimentation.  You can see what I take, at http://poiscenter.com/forums/index.php?topic=2090.msg16604#msg16604 - toward the end of the post, there is a section with titles in yellow, where I described what I take when I have POIS symptoms left, even when I have taken my pre-pack  ( if you read the entire post, you will see all that I do in order to prevent POIS and minimize my symptoms).   As you may now know, however, we all have to customize our method, because there is no one method that works for everybody.  But you can get some inspiration from other members success, in order to find your own relief method.

...fingertips dry up/burning...


Amazing! One of my worst symptoms, but haven’t noticed anyone else reporting that.

Thank you for sharing that symptom, ElVelero.
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

Thank you all for your answers, I really appreciate it, I'll try some of the methods.
Also what do you recommend when you are already in the POIS peroid?
And again thanks for your attention.

I'll add that the whole hand looks paler and after a while it's cold, also the articulations feel weird, like the hand always wants be closed.
