Thanks for reporting back.

Well another update.  No effect on anhedonia.

However months on clomid has result in a large weight gain. I am now in excess of 150 lbs.  Libido is ZERO.  Atleast I had a libido before.

Also abstaining for 3 solid months has had no positive effect.

I have noted that I have severe depression.  I have started seeing a psychologist. So far no progress.

look up a psychotherapist, cbt or get hold of a book called 'feeling good; the new mood therapy' which is very good practical advice for people with depression

Update

Remember I have no problem with ejaculations.

Well.  I have changed my point of view of the world and tried to worry less and make myself feel happier.

this has resulted in

Better erections and longer lasting sex

After some regular sex I come very close to orgasms. 

I was almost at the point where I think I would have had an orgasm, but my partner withdrew sex for two weeks and that made me sad again.

My issue seems to be depression related.  Shame none of the meds worked to reduce the depression. Life has slowly lost it color

I am now on :

5-htp
clomid
Cabergoline.
laradex.



I went to a neurologist.  No problem with my nerves.

Zero orgasms thou.

Also I became a vegetarian and these problems started. Endocrinologist seems to think I might have a genetic mutation.

No change

The 5-htp seems odd, as serotonin generally has a negative effect on sexuality.

Vegetarian - there are all sorts of deficiencies associated with that. And it the problem started shortly thereafter, that's a pretty big hint. The most obvious thing to do is go back to eating like you did while you still had orgasms. Just to see if that is the issue.

Otherwise, make sure the usual nutritional deficiencies associated with vegetarianism are taken care of. I think B12 is the key one.

You said that your testicles grew. Do you know if you had smallish ones to begin with? Did your doctor say?

[runtech]

No testes had shrunk because of low T.  They are back to normal size now. 


My mental state now is an issue thou.

Lots of problems in my relationship. Do we palce to much emphasis on orgasm during sex?

[runtech]

Going for blood tests soon

My partners never knew about my problems, I don't know if it was an issue or not, I concentrated most in giving pleasure to them.

Day 5

Feeling better today.
Wet dreams have been recurring.  They have been absent for quite a while.
More erections as well.

Fascinating. I did a poll on wet dreams. We were way below the general population in frequency of wet dreams.
