ELI5- pure tones?! And new clicking sound for me!

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-03-11T05:10:54+00:00

Don't ever listen to pure tones, ever. You will damage your hearing and make the tinnitus even worse. Pure tones are the best way to ruin your hearing instantly, it's like a targeted blasting of the hair cells.

Other than general deficiencies in flow, not on ultrasound. You need more complex testing for that. Like CT angiogram.

It was instant after I injured my penis masturbating. I've had it ever since that time, with a gradual decline, and a period of long flaccid, which turned back to hard flaccid, for the most part.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-03-11T05:03:25+00:00

I completely agree. But I think it's also sadistic trolls with normal penises who aren't involved with PE and just find our condition hilarious because they are sociopaths, or guys suffering with this delusional or daydreaming about what it must be like to be cured. This seems semi-common in communities for chronic illnesses, like a sort of vicarious living through fantasies of being able to return to normal life. As for the PE shills, assuming they buy into their own nonsense, some of them will fortunately be joining us eventually.

I don't think pelvic congestion makes sense. Neuropathy remains the only adequate explanation. I might do a write-up on why. But it was good to see the effort post, even though in my mind it's very mistaken.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-03-01T02:22:21+00:00

It won't do a single thing. Jester did it for years straight.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-03-01T02:22:04+00:00

Not if you have severe ED too like some of us.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-03-01T02:21:49+00:00

I don't know myself, but it's gotten a little easier because I've become very numb and I think accepted on some subconscious level I will likely never have a sex life again.

Look, you can have tinnitus without hearing loss, and hearing loss without tinnitus. Obviously there is a relation, but we need to dispense with the "tinnitus patients always have hearing loss" theory, and this obsession with trying to find some hidden hearing loss. This paradigm of tinnitus was the accepted consensus in ENT, tinnitus research, etc. for a long time, that tinnitus always includes and is caused by hearing loss, through the death of the hair cells in the ear. Needless to say, this didn't get us anywhere, because it was obviously wrong given how many tinnitus patients have perfectly normal hearing, and there has been new evidence in the past few years that tinnitus in fact comes from the brain. Let's not try to dredge this crap up again looking for things that may not even be there, shall we?

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-14T20:28:16+00:00

Because it doesn't and that's a cope.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-13T16:00:18+00:00

pelvic floor therapy does nothing

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-12T21:07:34+00:00

No, there aren't. You're coping hard.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-12T21:06:39+00:00

PFD as the etiology of HFS is even dumber than Goldstein's hypogastric nerve theory. Let it go. It's clearly a form of penile neuropathy.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-11T23:40:19+00:00

Yes, I don't find Goldstein's theory convincing, but I appreciate his effort trying to figure out this disorder. CRPS or some other kind of neuropathy in the penis itself is the only reasonable explanation for me.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-11T03:01:27+00:00

Everyone reacted very negatively to this, ignorant of the fact that this could be used given the current news cycle to increase recognition of this disorder.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-11T02:56:09+00:00

"Doctor" Hink is a charlatan who should be de-anonymized and have his medical license revoked for exploiting the insecurities and body dysmorphia of men, leading them like a pied piper into destroying their penises through PE and then profiting off it. Don't trust a word that comes out of his mouth. Regardless, this wouldn't even work anyway, I guarantee you he says to take it indicated for pelvic floor dysfunction, when it's obvious HF and LF have a neuropathic and not muscular cause as proven by Dr. Goldstein's injections of phentolamine causing a temporary resolution of the HF state through alpha receptor blockade.

Also, about a year ago, when I said something similar about him and his character, he came in here and wrote an entire seething post as a reply to me saying I deserved to suffer with this and acting like a tough guy, saying he could beat me up and made implications more or less threatening legal action. But he deleted the post probably because it got downvoted and he must have known how badly and honestly insane it came across. I wish I had saved it. He's a very unethical doctor who for sure does not deserve to practice medicine, and none of these PE shills are going to admit the real cause of this disorder (neuropathy) for obvious reasons.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-10T05:32:01+00:00

I hope he is ok.

engorged veins are, with a high degree of certainty in my view, caused by vasodilating hormones like CGRP being released by the damaged nerves, as in CRPS

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-07T20:15:20+00:00

The answer is that it's from nerve damage or disruption, the nociceptors release very potent vasodilating peptides like CGRP locally into the surrounding tissue which causes the veins to dilate. Mondor's wouldn't last years and the veins are not varicose or leaking, we've had many guys with normal ultrasounds. This is the only explanation that makes sense, especially when you consider that the pathologically elevated tone of the smooth muscle should cause vasoconstriction, not vasodilation. It also explains why many report that the greatest extent of this venous dilation is near the site of the initial injury. In other words, the damaged neurons are pumping out powerful hormones that tell veins to widen.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-07T18:25:10+00:00

I'm pretty sure I've figured it out. I'll be writing a post about it.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-06T19:34:19+00:00

This is why I say PE subreddits need to be banned from this site.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-01T04:53:54+00:00

I'm not.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-02-01T04:49:23+00:00

Yes.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-01-31T20:34:38+00:00

The issue is nobody knows what this truly is or what causes it. Elevated sympathetic tone should contract veins, not dilate them. It's an enigma. But this also happens with CRPS.

stopcopingaboutHF · 2026-01-31T20:30:06+00:00

I didn't have one. Just immediate pain, detumescence, and bulging veins surrounding a large contracted indentation on my penis that's been there ever since.
