Kratom and weaker male orgasms

Post by Ankul »

Hey everyone. I've been taking kratom for a few years now. It's been really great for me. Over the last six months or so, I've noticed that my orgasms aren't as strong. Does anyone have any idea if the 2 are connected? Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks in advance!!

I have found that my libido is not what it was. I have heard that kratom increases prolactin levels so that may be it? Who knows?

Is it possible that it has something to do with the receptors that kratom effects in the brain? Is there any crossover between those receptors and orgasmic pleasure?

From what I know, any opioid or opioid-like substance can contribute to less intense orgasms, difficulty achieving an orgasm, and difficulty having an erection in the first place. In general, i definitely have had a somewhat reduced libido since I started using Kratom, but I’m still able to enjoy sex. I also notice that on days where I don’t use Kratom (infrequently), my libido comes back full force pretty quickly.

In my experience, consistent exercise can help keep libido at AT LEAST normal levels. Especially doing compound lifts, such as deadlifts, back and front squats, overhead press, push ups, rows, etc.

I have noticed the same. If your going to take kratom daily, its almost essential that you lift weights at least 3 times a week.

I think even that is fairly rare, and it hasn't been reliably shown to have a significant effect on hormones.

Different strokes for different folks though. We've all got our own neurological thumbprint. But I do think that the loss of libido has to be something more than a hormonal issue and maybe related to the effect on the opioid system in general. Who knows, really.

For those of you who haven't used opiates or stronger opioids, they are WAY WORSE than kratom in this regard.
