Hello,
After natural bodybuilding for 2 years and putting on good muscle. In the summer of 2016 I decided to go on a cut that lead to severe calorie restriction. I started eating around 1400 calories a day , mostly black coffee, and vegetables. Ocassional oatmeal, piece of chicken.I went from 170 lbs at 5'9 down to 139 lbs in about 5 weeks. I noticed low libido but linked it to caloric restriction and continued the diet and overtraining. I stopped weight lifting and did 1-2 hours of cardio every day.
In december of 2016 I noticed complete ed, and then it hit me that I havent had morning/spontaneous erections in 5-6 months. I developed severe restless leg syndrome and couldnt stop moving them all day long. I then noticed complete ed and genital numbness and low ejaculation volume and force. This is when I knew something was wrong and I immediately stopped the diet. 2 years after I still have the following symptoms
-Genital numbness/ lack of sensitivity feeling like rubber
- no morning/spontaneous erections
-0 libido
-no feeling in ejaculation
-low semen volume and force
-dry tired eyes/ dark under eyes
- no sweat from armpits and genitals (feeling of dryness) and no pre cum
shbg 19 (18-54)
fsh 3.7 (1.5-12.4)
lh 5.0 (1.7-8.6)
e2 13 (11.5-43.2)
progesterone 0.12 (0-0.13)
total t 654
free test 2.56% (1.53-.2.88)
cortisol 481 (171-536)
acth 29.2 (0-46)
TSH 2.565 (0.35-4.94)
ft3 4.6 (2.9-4.9)
ft4 11.9 (9-19)
prolactin 301 (73-407)
DHT 220 (300-850)
DHEA-S 12,51 (4.34-12.2)
Please give me any advice as I have been in this horrible situation for 2+ years.
