Guest guest Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Hi there, I have been on armour and HC for about 8 months. I am on 3.25 grains of armour and 40mg of HC. I noticed prety soon after starting them that my libido had reduced quite a bit - i had previously had a very overactive libido. Also i found that i was experiencing impotence quite regularly - this i had never had before. While over all i feel quite improved - the impotence bothers me (viagra doesnt help either). I wonder if supplementing with DHEA would help - i previously always had high testosterone. Or maybe i need an increase in armour. (However my adrenals arent able to take much more armour at present) Thanks all.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am female and noticed my libido took a dive when my adrenals crashed because my body was trying to grab as many resources to convert to cortisol. It is slightly better now that I've increased my HC, and a little DHEA. Did you have the 24 hr saliva test before you began your HC treatment? Would your Dr. be willing to dose your DHEA based on those test results? There is a saliva test for testosterone but I am not sure how HC affects the test result. Your body is reacting to your hormone levels--impotence has nothing to do with your masculinity or sexuality. Maybe you can use this time to explore other ways for you and your partner to enjoy each other. Be it social things or massages.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 I think rather than guessing you should try to get some testing done. I suspect your Testosterone has fallen so supplementing that or if DHEA is low you could take that., But hormones should not be supplemented unless you know you are low in them. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Yes, when you take HC (at least in my own experience and that of others I have read about), the DHEA and testosterone drops. Mine did significantly and so did my libido. I had to supplement DHEA and testosterone while on HC, and now it is better Hope this helps, Dove Rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Rose - I can attest to this. My libido has gone down the toilet since beginning HC.
