I didn't experience much for side effects, maybe some more irritability/jittery. I purposefully took very small doses im talking cutting the pill very small (less than half), and only taking it once a week, sometimes twice - so i didn't have any side effects but interestingly my prolactin was still lowered.
I would occasionally have a burst in libido which was hard to describe but thats about it. My libido is not completely gone anyway but it didn't make a big difference. Maybe if i took higher dose it would have a stronger effect. I dont remember any other effects, my testes continued to shrink and all the same shit continued to happened so idk i dont blame prolactin for my issues anymore although im sure it doesn't help. I dont think ive gotten progesterone checked yet unfortunately.
Brief Symptoms:
PE - Anhedonia, less emotions - Test Atrophy - Numb body - Lowered libido = ED
24/7 tension, stress. Worse with lack of sleep, hungry, ill
"Pure-O"
Visual Snow Syndrome + DP/DR + Tinnitus
Insomnia, Fatigue

How much your testestorone count chemistry. Mine is on the lower side but my free t is on the higer side. My low total t probably explains my testes shrinkage

T levels including free T were/are mid range, basically bang in the middle of normal. For a 22 year old this might not be optimal but i doubt its anything to be concerned about. Yeah i hear you, its weird bc other than prolactin my hormone results seemed alright, so its really weird im having the shrinkage too.

I think ive mentioned before but to confirm yeah i got an ultrasound as well and they confirmed they were small. not prepubescent, but slightly above that i think they were 7.5ml or something. they're likely smaller now this was 2 years ago or something.

update : got a prescirption for cabergoline from doc schwitzer. He claims it will reduce the prolactin. He also prescribed 2.5 mg per day ritalin to raise dopamine.
He gave me referal letter to a doctor ( waldingers colleague) who claims to have treated penile anesthesia in this paper https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25483212

MRI report came back normal

windows are getting vague and waves longer

Thanks for the update! Interesting to hear you got caber and Ritaline, both work on dopamine. Hope this will help you

Update for my own reference

I am 18 months off SSRIs now.
I feel i had another crash/ set back 3-4 months ago. most probably after drinking a half ltr beer.
Before that i was recovering very well. Could have sex a couple of times a day some days. I also started causual dating and casual sex. had week long windows and a week long waves. i thought i was recovering to about 50 percent.
But this crash since last 3-4 months have made me come to square one again. I have not seen any noticable windows since then. I am in a bad state and my libido is very low.

I also started taking cabergoline to lower my elevated prolactin. I took .25 twice a week for 3 weeks. Did not notice any change in PSSD. I also believe i got anorgasma and increased numbness from cabergoline. I do not get morning wood (maybe once a week i get it ) and numbness has increased too.

I still have testicular shrinkage which i believe started 8-9 months ago.
Since today i am getting burning feet again. which I think means some hormonal change going on in the body. Similar kind of burning feet happened to me a year ago and after that i feel my testicles got shrunk. I hope this is not the case this time


Feeling very low energy and fatigued . I have been going to gym for 6 months now and have gained some decent muscles. its getting harder and harder to go to gym because of the fatigue.
I am going to have another endo blood test soon to see how are things after my brief cabergoline trial

I stayed over last night at a girls place and had sex with her for the first time yesterday. I had already told her about pssd. I lost my erection in the middle of sex twice. In the end i could not orgasm inside her. Jerked off later though. Sex was so pleasureless and connectionnless. Felt very bad afterwards. Cant believe what a pill has done to me. What sorta life will a 29 year old guy can live with this condition . Its 20!months now and i feel worse than a few months ago.
