This thread for speaking each other about Melcangi's study and other news that you can find in the Coraggio's Corner- Private.

1) Melcangi's STUDY INTRO: Maybe someone remember that I have fund a research with Professor Melcangi, a neuroendocrinopharmacologist professore of Milan University. He studies neurosteroids, that are steroid hormones other than sexual o glucocorticoid steroid that are made by glands and, in partic...

Hi everybody, it has passed something since last time I have written on the forum. I' ve read once a month if there were any news but, in this period, I have restarted most of my life activities and I have no longer many time to spend here.

Believe me I have wanted to post for a while now about my story / near recovery but I wanted to wait several months to make sure 100% that what I’m telling you isn’t just a phase...

Glad to see talking and reaserching about gaba. Gaba plays a big role in our pathogenesis. We need to upregulate naturally
allopregnenolone and alpha4 gaba receptor subunit. Chronic SSRI downregulate both ( while acutely upregulate allpregnanolone biosynthesis).

I think I have found the final lick to understand the situation 1. First article: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/15936112/ "Serotonergic 5-HT2A receptor stimulation induces steroid 5alpha-reductase gene expression in rat C6 glioma cells via transcription factor Egr-1. Morita K, et al. B...

Very interesting. One step to lower cortisol is avoid stimulant like caffeine. It raises testosterone and cortisol acutely but more the last one, so try to lower caffeine as you can Second, I ve found beta-carotene and retinoids(vit A that is its metabolite) can: 1 accumulates in dopaminergic brain ...

I think you are right however my dr now wants me to go on Paxil. I have tried ssri’s in the past and did not tolerate them well. My ability to orgasm did come back after using them though (lexapro about 2 weeks and cymbalta for a week). Still it worries me knowing what could potentially happen. She...

Very good info man. I highly suggest everyone to test electrolites, albuminemia and BUN/creatinine ratio in their blood test with the hormone levels.

Tell me, how about your protein intake? Does it is very insufficient or not?

Guys.. I have no time in this month but would looking better about ADH levels. It is well recognised by the literature SSRI can do an ADH imbalance. ADH means Anti Diuretic Peptide and is secreted by neurohypophysis (like oxytocin). ADH regulates sodium balance.sodium is essential for neurons depola...
