I woke today feeling like my old self for the first time in 9 years after even though I masturbated yesterday. I can't cause a big pois flaire up even I'm really trying. All I can cause is a mini pois attack that last less than a day or two. I only have couple physical symptoms left (muscle pain, slightly achy joints and forehead/facial pressure).
My method I've been using over a year: Cause a pois flair up by masturbating gently (avoid edging!, this will just cause a giant flair), survive the symptoms (the sucky part, my lasted 7-10 days), abstain until you start to feel normal, repeat for a long it takes.
"We have recruited and run most (80%) of the planned healthy control participants and begun recruitment of patients with POIS. Even at this early stage, we have generated some novel findings - never before documented in the scientific literature - about the physiology of orgasm that will guide future research on the causes of POIS. One such finding is that in healthy men without POIS, sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity (the "fight-or-flight" stress system) is elevated during arousal, but substantially declines in the period of time preceding orgasm. This is particularly true if the person is actively attempting to move from high arousal to climax. If POIS patients do not show this same pattern and instead continue to experience high SNS activity from arousal to post-orgasm, dysregulated autonomic function would be a strong candidate mechanism for many of the core POIS symptoms such as fever and cognitive dysfunction."
