Remeron: Orgasms for Eunuchs?

[DocT (imported)]

A few years ago I had shingles on my face. The pain was out of this world and it drove my blood pressure up so the doctor gave me spironolactone. I didn’t know it at the time but this blood pressure medicine will shut down testosterone production in certain men. Since my testicles only create a total Testosterone level of about 70, that could have been a problem for me. Except that I’ve been taking testosterone for hypogonadism since I was 19 (I’m 48). Here’s the twist, when the doctor started me on medicine for shingles (Valtrex) and oxycontin for the pain, he took me off testosterone because he thought testosterone might be the reason I got shingles. I questioned him a year later on this (I was too weak at the time to argue at the time) and he had no medical reason whatsoever for thinking this. Anyway, I became completely impotent and sunk into a deep depression. I’ll bet my testosterone hit eunuch levels. I kept trying to take care of my wife sexually and it was just pathetic. I was frantic. My semen dried up and I totally lost sexual sensitivity and the ability to orgasm. But I still wanted to have sex with my wife all the time for her sake and I couldn’t. It was a “challenging” moment to say the least.

I’m quite sure the son-of-a-bitch doctor did this on purpose. We live near each other and belong to the same country club. I’m a big lean muscular guy and for 15 years he always taking jabs at me around the club. I lost about fifty pounds of muscle in the several months that I was off testosterone, and he made a lot of smug comments about this. Several doctors have done this to me over the years.

But here’s the point of this thread: I ended up going to a pain doctor after a while. He was a pretty cool guy. Among other things he did, he put me on Remeron (15mg before bed), an antidepressant that is known to increase the ease of orgasm. It made me feel a little weird for the first couple weeks but I stuck it out and all of a sudden… wham, I got incredible sexual sensitivity! My wife thought it was a kick. She’d just lightly touch my scrotum for about 20 seconds and I’d have an orgasm. I couldn’t get an erection at all. In fact as she touched me, my penis would withdraw inside me, but man would I have intense orgasms. She would do this to me like six times a day just to tease me. I wouldn’t think about or crave sex at all, but when she would touch me I’d have a great orgasm. It wasn’t the typical male pumping orgasm (because I had no fluid to pump). It was like a giant orgasmic body wave, probably like a woman has. It was awesome. Later on the doctor added Wellbutrin, another antidepressant that increases sexual desire. This took about a month and a half to work but it made me desire sex. I still wasn’t taking testosterone and I never got the slightest hint of an erection. I practically forgot my penis existed. My wife and I had figured out other ways to please her and we were having really good sex.

Eventually I got back on testosterone. But we kept a lot of the elements we’d learned during penis-less sex in our love making. I know some eunuchs prefer not to have orgasms, but I thought this might interest someone. I'd really like to know if it would work for someone else the way it worked for me.
