Guys. The increased sexual arousal is not a PFS phenomenon. There is a thread about it on MESO RX and in general, a lot of people are horny the day after drinking.

Last night i had a small amount of alcohol - 1 shot and a few other things. I was mildly drunk. I had great sex later in the evening and today i am still a bit horny. Sensitivity has not returned to pre-fin levels, but i would say my libido today has been comparable to some days pre fin. I have observed this increase in libido in the days that follow drinking maybe 6-7 times now. Therefore I am now very intrigued as to what it is that alcohol is doing in the day that follows to make me feel almost normal? (I would say mentally and physically also).


In my opinion 1 of 2 things.

1. Alters allopregnenolone metabalism.
2. Suppresses the immune system.

Man I wish this method was foolproof. It would give me a reason to drink again regularly, and lately I'm thinking I may do just that. Well, sort of. The other day I had a friend's party to go to, and I had been in a funk for about a week or two. Very depressed, very brain fogged, junk looking terrible, so on and so forth. I lifted weights somewhat furiously in the afternoon before his party, as it was one method that kick-started a semi-recovery for me in the past, hoping to duplicate those results so as to enjoy the social occasion. Well, it didn't seem to have much effect on me, or perhaps it was a delayed effect, but that night I ordered a single beer with dinner and it's as though the alcohol was able to somehow effectively convert the testosterone I had built up a few hours earlier. Let me emphasize... one beer, nothing to the point of intoxication. The next two days (with the exception of sleep... although I did have several dreams during those two nights, which I don't do a whole lot these days) were very wonderful for me. My nocturnal and morning erections were raging (first time I've had to hold my penis down while peeing in a very long time), my brain fog had mostly melted away, my energy levels were up, and I found myself smiling, joking, laughing, and generally feeling and enjoying life. There is no doubt in my mind the alcohol caused this period of improved well-being. Question is, how can I make that sustainable?
