Hi there
I've recently read about low serotonin as a factor in ejaculatory control. I've also read about high histamine as a factor too in rapid ejaculation. I understand there is a connection between histamine and serotonin in that both are monoamine neurotransmitters.
I've read about a bunch of stuff that might be helpful here: 5-HTP, Theanine, GABA, SAM-e, Rhodiola, Magnesium, anti-histamines through to SSRI's including Dapoxetine.
I'm very reluctant to experiment with drugs such as Dapoxetine and Tramadol and instead would prefer to explore supplements.
Is there a blood test that might tell me if I have high histamine? How about on the serotonin side of things? I'm reluctant to indiscriminately just start taking stuff and am hoping to devise some sort of protocol that might allow me to narrow down effective supplements.
I am tall and thin and seem to have many of the histadelic characteristics. I eat large amounts of food but don't gain weight. I have what seems like high libido to me.
I suppose there are a couple of approaches here: a daily regimen versus 'on-demand' options (taken prior to sex). At this stage I'm looking to explore a daily protocol of supplements instead of an 'on-demand' solution.
I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on serotonin/histamine factors at play here and how best to devise an approach to choosing and taking supplements with a view to establishing a greater degree of ejaculatory control.
