If you're on Hydrocortisone treatment, you may have to stress dose either the day or of the next day. But again, I'm not an expert, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 I am on Cortef 30 mgs a day I find that if you need to stress dose a lot your not on enough HC a day. I started at 20 mgs 5 mgs every 4 hrs then one day I was working in the yard and over did it ended up in the ER it was lucky for me I had a card on my wallet saying I suffer from Hypopituitary and listed the meds I was on they seen I was on 20 mgs a day of cortef and gave me a big shot of Medrol. After this my Dr. upped my dose to 25 mgs a day but it happened again I ended up in the ER needed Medrol again the Dr. in the ER told me go up to 30 mgs a day after this I don't feel the need to stress dose. I go to the gym 3 x's a week and work out 90 min.'s I recover well and don't get shaky, weak or sick to my stomach. It's safe to take HC up to 40 mgs a day if you need it. I am on HC for life.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Shoot... I thought it was a good thing when you fell asleep after sex. After all sex relaxes every muscle in the body. When I was married it was our favorite way to end the day... we both conked out shortly after... usally her going first.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 He was on HC and once we lowered thyroid, was able to wean off. His original salivary cortisol test showed him low at noon, his ferritin level was about 100 last time, and I'm thinking, after reading some other posts, that his adrenals are still tender and can't take much excitement.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Can't do intense exercise; still recovering from trashed adrenals (PTSD from paranoid schizophrenic psycho at work). There was a time when neither of us could walk around the block, and we're up to 3x now, so I guess if he can ever get his regular exercise stamina back, then having sex won't wear him out either.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Sounds like you're on the right track to finding out why he's so fatigued. If it was primarily sexual fatigue with inability to get hard for a day or two, I would wonder what his prolactin level would be, too. I recall a fascinating study linking men who could last sexually for several rounds with a lower prolactin response after ejaculation. ~Xian > > > > > > > From: Barb <baba@ <baba%40cfl.rr.com>> > > > > Subject: Fatigue After Sex > > > > < %40> > > > > Date: Sunday, May 30, 2010, 5:35 PM > > > > > > > Just curious if anyone could guess > > > > why a man would be fatigued the day after sex? > > > > Testosterone/estrogen must not be too bad, if he was able to > > > > have sex, right?

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Yes a few people on HC need more because a lot of it gets killed in there stomach. My Dr. has me take my morning dose 10 mgs at about 6am then I do a feasting labs at about 9am testing morning cortisol as long as I show a levels he knows I am not shut down. I have a range doing this from 7 to 15 it's all about how much stess you in when doing this but if my levels came back say 2 he would know I am on to much HC.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Yes this is very possible one of the best mods that helped me with Adrenal Fatigue she stopped HC a few times and labs were good but if she got upset she would get weak, shaky and sick to her stomach this is the start of Adrenal Crisis. So she stays on HC some of use need to be on it for life we were to long if finding out the adrenals were over worked and they don't come back.

I'm not and expert by any means, but I get the same way and I suffer from
adrenal fatigue.
If you're on Hydrocortisone treatment, you may have to stress dose either
the day or of the next day.
But again, I'm not an expert, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

I am on Cortef 30 mgs a day I find that if you need to stress dose a lot your
not on enough HC a day. I started at 20 mgs 5 mgs every 4 hrs then one day I
was working in the yard and over did it ended up in the ER it was lucky for me I
had a card on my wallet saying I suffer from Hypopituitary and listed the meds I
was on they seen I was on 20 mgs a day of cortef and gave me a big shot of
Medrol. After this my Dr. upped my dose to 25 mgs a day but it happened again I
ended up in the ER needed Medrol again the Dr. in the ER told me go up to 30 mgs
a day after this I don't feel the need to stress dose. I go to the gym 3 x's a
week and work out 90 min.'s I recover well and don't get shaky, weak or sick to
my stomach. It's safe to take HC up to 40 mgs a day if you need it. I am on HC
for life.

Yeah, I'm still in the process of finding a good dose for me. I have
digestion problems, so I think that I don't always digest and absorb a
consitant amount of HC. I'm currently on 40 mg of compounded HC and my doc
wants to push me up to 50 mg. So, hopefully that will help. Thanks for the

Shoot... I thought it was a good thing when you fell asleep after sex.
After all sex relaxes every muscle in the body. When I was married it was
our favorite way to end the day... we both conked out shortly after...
usally her going first.
Re: Fatigue After Sex
Only things I can think of is IGF-1 testing Growth Hormone is he on HC for
Adrenals if not a morning blood test can be high because of the needle
taking blood do a 4x's in a day Saliva test to see what his rhythm looks
like. I was low on DHEA most of my adult life taking it never fixed my
Fatigue. Also there is Ferritin levels I was below normal went on iron pills
and in about 3 months started having much more angry Co-Moderator Phil

He was on HC and once we lowered thyroid, was able to wean off. His original
salivary cortisol test showed him low at noon, his ferritin level was about 100
last time, and I'm thinking, after reading some other posts, that his adrenals
are still tender and can't take much excitement.
Thanks,

Can't do intense exercise; still recovering from trashed adrenals (PTSD from
paranoid schizophrenic psycho at work).
There was a time when neither of us could walk around the block, and we're up to
3x now, so I guess if he can ever get his regular exercise stamina back, then
having sex won't wear him out either.
Thanks,
Barb

But you have the same symptom, so thanks for posting. He did take an Isocort
right before.

Sounds like you're on the right track to finding out why he's so fatigued. If
it was primarily sexual fatigue with inability to get hard for a day or two, I
would wonder what his prolactin level would be, too. I recall a fascinating
study linking men who could last sexually for several rounds with a lower
prolactin response after ejaculation.

Yes a few people on HC need more because a lot of it gets killed in there
stomach. My Dr. has me take my morning dose 10 mgs at about 6am then I do a
feasting labs at about 9am testing morning cortisol as long as I show a levels
he knows I am not shut down. I have a range doing this from 7 to 15 it's all
about how much stess you in when doing this but if my levels came back say 2 he
would know I am on to much HC.

Yes this is very possible one of the best mods that helped me with Adrenal
Fatigue she stopped HC a few times and labs were good but if she got upset she
would get weak, shaky and sick to her stomach this is the start of Adrenal
Crisis. So she stays on HC some of use need to be on it for life we were to
long if finding out the adrenals were over worked and they don't come back.
