If the onset was abrupt, it could be a pelvic floor issue.

Do you use finasteride or any other meds?

No problem man! I read through the rest of the thread. Everything seems on point except fat intake. I’d bump it up to 30-40% of your cals. Keep saturated fats around 30% of your fat intake and the rest from monounsaturated fats. No polys or Trans. That should help with your blood work. Buuut I’m just a dude on a forum and not a doctor haha good luck dude.

On recharge

EDIT: also, I see you’re lifting 3 days per week. I’d recommend doing 50 mins low intensity cardio on 3 of your non lifting days. 150 mins a week will do wonders. Try beet root juice and pomegranate juice with garlic/vit c if you have any issues with blood flow down there too.

Should have listened then....seems like I have been pushing past the point of "failure" or "exhaustion" for 2-3 weeks now. results are just so damn addictive and my mentality/ego makes me not want to deload or take a week off.

Will take it easy for a week and up my fats.

Thanks to everyone and reps to come if I didn't already get ya. Honestly a much better turn out of responses than I was expecting considering this being The Misc
I feel you brah. In my experience you will come back stronger after the week off. Good luck.
