Has anyone tried this? I've read anecdotes of it working for general anhedonia, but not for PSSD. Could it potentially make things worse?

I was just reading this as well. He is a PFS sufferer, and mentions further down the thread that it gave him more libido. "Almost distractingly so"

Did you end up trying it?

I know someone who tried it for a week but tapered off...he reported slightly improved erections while on it, but a crash when withdrawn from it. Luckily, he recovered back to baseline. No improvement in anhedonia symptoms, but it was a short trial.

Curiously, he had markedly stronger emissions for a week or so..powerful squirting, but it soon went back to dribbling. Can anyone explain that?

I'm considering trying to microdose fluoxetine or something similar to achieve the same effect. Have been reading at a very small dose you can avoid any serotonergic effects while getting the allopregnenolone boosting effect, which is supposedly stronger at small doses and less so at therapeutic doses.
