Hello,

I hope that if some of you on this list put have any knowledge about
this matter or knows of anyone that does that you will forward the
information to me.
About about me - I study psychology, I have a girlfriend - and I
have it for about three years. I am 25 years old, and I have had
some problems with ejaculation the last couple of years. I've tried
to cure it with yoga, tantra, acupuncture, tai chi, with some of
mantak chia books about sex but none have really helped yet.

Since I was about 19 years old, I have had problems during
intercourse - I would get very fast ejaculation in matter of
seconds. Since then other problems has arisen (but this problem
about too quick ejaculation has in periods been better - but right
now it is really bad). I read a lot of books, and some books claimed
that it was good to preserve the semen. I thought OK (because in the
years 20-23 I didn't have any lover) then I'll stop masturbating,
and I stopped. But then the ejaculations just came during dreams.
When I was about 21 years old I began getting various kinds of
symptoms after nocturnal emissions.

At first I always got a sore throat, sore eyes - like they were
burning - and I felt dry like a desert on my skin. Then the symptoms
changed (I never went to see a doctor - cause what would he say?)
maybe it was caused by some of the treatments I that I tried or some
of the exercises that I did (like headstand I yoga). Now it became
more traditional symptoms like backpains (that during the days that
followed moved up along the spine) and I felt a pressure against the
lower part of scrotum (not the testes but against the lower part on
some of the threads that leads from the body to the testes).

During the last six moth - I somehow stopped having nocturnal
emissions (I believe it was caused by the yogic headstand), but
still if I got ejaculation together with my girlfriend (which
happened about one or two times a month though - I quite often
succeeded in getting no ejaculation) I would get the former
mentioned symptoms. But during these six months I developed some
stomach pains - just above the hips (the doctor said that it
probably was stress or something emotional) and because the doctor
couldn't help I went to a another acupuncturist.

Somehow the focus with the acupuncturist became the symptoms I got
when I got ejaculation instead of the stomach pains. He answered
quickly before I could tell more thorougly about my situation that
the cause was loss of 'jing'. He stung me with some needles and gave
me some medicine and said I should take care of not getting
ejaculations for a while. I was happy that he at least had something
to offer. But after I had taken the medicine (herbals: called jin
suo gu jing wan) for a week I got a nightly ejaculation, and then
the day after it came again. My symptoms was two things: tiredness
and pressure against the lower scrotum - and some of the threads in
scrotum even began to swell and get hard (it felt like swollen lymph
nodes).

When I told the acupuncturist this, he then he prescribed some other
herbpills called Kai Kit Wan - some pills against prostatitis. But
last night (and this is why I write this mail) I got ejaculation TWO
times during the night - it might be part of the healing process (I
know nothing!!!!!!!!) but as I am writing this email the pressure in
scrotum is slowly rising and I would be very surprised if it not
will become worse the following days. And I feel so very tired and
confused ..................

I have some other things I would like to mention - my girlfriend
began getting very irregular periods after she had been with me for
a while, and a few months a go she was diagnosed with some kind of
bacteria called streptococcus (I don't know how it is spelled - and
whether this is the right name in English). When she was diagnosed
with it she was not told anything about that it could have comed
from me. But now (without still not knowing anything for sure) it
seems likely to me that it could have been me that have transferred
it to her (I have only had sex with one person before her though).
But of course it can also be other way around - maybe???

Another thing is that I have also had some itchy feelings just
inside and around anus for quite some time now (and the doctor just
gave me some salvia) could this be related to my other symptoms?
My hamstrings (my muscles on my backlegs) are short, which makes it
impossible to do certain yogic postures cause my back just becomes
round instead of remaining straight - can this be related?

Does anybody know anything that could help me, or tell me something
about what is happening.
