Hi pals,
I plan to go to Germany in one month, and I want to visit the FKK Mainhattan (I won't have a car to move outside Frankfurt). I would like to know if girls are clean in this kind of clubs, and if someone know some girls good at DT in this FKK.

In summary, the recommendations from the boards to the OP:
I say if you're looking for supplementation, direct hormone replacement is the only sure fire way to boost testosterone to levels needed to improve sexual performance. OTC Test boosters do not increase testosterone levels enough to stimulate a noticeable improvement in sexual performance, if at all.
McA suggests a no fap, no porn lifestyle change.
Both recognize the importance of improving physical fitness and considering adverse effects of other medication.
One poster suggested Zinc supplementation.

I understand that my case was unique and my DE, at least initially, was several orders of magnitude more extreme than what is generally described here. But the common denominator amongst every fly-in sex-tourist I have spoken to regarding this subject is that they do not have access to cheap, legal, convenient, and frequent vagina while in their home country, so porn and masturbation becomes a necessary and disproportionate part of their routine, as was the case for me. One mutual monger acquaintance of ours, a fly-in monger from continental Europe in his mid-40's, told me that he masturbates 3-6 times a day. He is absolutely certain that even as a teenager, he was never able to masturbate six times a day. Most certainly, he is not physically as healthy as he was in his teenage years. Has his libido increased with age? Or is it that the convenience of streaming, on-demand, and limitless porn has made masturbation that much more tempting for him so that he just does it almost out of habit or boredom?
As I said, I agreed that KK should address his fatigue and insomnia issues first and foremost. But let's say a "reboot" (I. E. quitting porn and masturbation) only increases his number of pops per trip by one or two, I still think it is worth the effort. A reboot takes only discipline and willpower. Starting an exercise regimen or following a healthier diet are obviously worthwhile efforts as well, but those lifestyle changes place additional demands on time, maybe as much 60-75 minutes per day. If guys here were anything like me when I had my porn addiction, I constantly needed new content, and it had to be the right kind of content, otherwise I would not get turned on. So quitting porn has given me back 30-60 minutes per day, that I would have otherwise spent on a porn engine search interface, previewing videos, and closing popup windows.
Once again, I understand masturbation is not the root cause or sole cause of all cases of sexual dysfunction. Here is an excerpt from another peer-reviewed medical article by a NYC urologist explaining all the things he checks when encountering a case of DE (he uses DO as abbreviation for delayed orgasm):
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4816679/
Management should begin with a good medical/psychosexual history, social/religious history, medication list, and physical exam. Focusing on the major etiologic factors (as listed above) is a useful starting point. Medication history should focus on SSRI agents and other psychotropic agents, and define the onset of the use of the medication as it pertains to the timing of onset of DO. Asking about penile sensitivity is a useful question, especially in men at risk for penile sensation loss such as diabetics. Symptoms and signs of endocrinopathies such as testosterone deficiency, hypothyroidism and hyperprolactinemia should be sought. Masturbatory style is another useful line of inquiry as frequent masturbation or idiosyncratic masturbatory styles may lead to DO. Defining relationship status, satisfaction and the role external stressors may be playing in the DO genesis is also important.
Furthermore, identifying the onset of the DO is critical, whether lifelong or acquired. Next, understanding whether the condition is generalized or situational is also critical to understanding the pathophysiology. Asking patients to describe a typical sexual encounter is often a useful ploy to unearth potential contributing factors. Defining the consistency of the problem, that is: does it happen all the time or only some of the time? with sexual intercourse and sexual outercourse with a partner? and how this differs between partner-based relations and masturbation? For example, men who achieve orgasm with masturbation but have difficulty with partner-based relations often have one of two factors as causes loss of penile sensitivity (overcome by vigorous masturbation) or psychological issues (interpersonal conflict, fear, anxiety, or hostility). Inquiring about how long a man attempts relations before stopping may also provide valuable insight into the problem. Some older men, due to inadequate exercise reserve of upper body strength, cease sexual relations sooner than they did when they were younger and thus interpret this as DO. Finally, asking about strategies or medications that have been tried previously for this problem will aid in plotting a course of treatment.

Pertinent to our tangent is that KK himself has professed that he is not a chronic porn abuser or engages in much masturbation. He has also professed in the past that his issue was not finishing entirely but mostly finishing with a condom. Taking his word for it, I don't see a reason to propose a nofap, no porn solution as this doesn't seem to be applicable to his case.
The point is one that I have contested with you many times in the past; that is, there are many facts involved in impotence and that each person has a unique profile. Masturbating and porn addiction is not the root cause of all impotence; and from the history, it seems to be of very little pertinence in this case. What is more likely here are factors associated with aging, medications, cardiovascular health, and others that fall under the lifestyle-psycho-somatic umbrella.

First, the points regarding mechanical training goes without saying. One can be trained to respond better by sensitizing and desensitizing; that is just a matter of neurons adjusting to higher and lower action potential thresholds from repeated stimulation. Much like pain thresholds can be altered, pleasure thresholds can also be altered.
The points attributing impotence to mere "psychological causes" do seem incomplete. It's not fair to just say, "it's psychological. " This does not really identify a root cause of the issue, namely imbalances in molecules directly involved in ejaculation such as dopamine and serotonin.
Here's an article that tries to explain, as completely as possible, the physiology of ejaculation and orgasm to the anatomical and molecular minutiae:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5002008/
While science has yet to explain all of the intricacies of ejaculation physiology, on a molecular level what keeps popping up is the positive role of testosterone, dopamine, and norepinephrine and the negative role of serotonin and high dopamine thresholds.
What's most important here is that the final stage of ejaculation, the payoff if you will, is that ejaculation is directly modulated by norepinephrine (explained above) which in turn is modulated by testosterone (supported below):

When you say "not much at all anymore", it's not clear what your longest periods of abstinence have been.
For what it's worth, those guys on those porn addiction forums advocate minimum of 90 days "reboot" period. This means abstinence (no porn, no masturbation, no orgasm). https://www.nofap.com/rebooting/.
Perhaps a less extreme, modified version of reboot would be better. Just quit porn. Just quit jacking off. And try to hold it until your next sex trip. If you experience withdrawal, than see one of your Austin hookers.

"This sexual desire, or libido, is key in kicking off the process that will lead to orgasm. If a man has no sex drive for example, if he has clinically low testosterone or is suffering from depression his body may not respond to sexual stimuli and he may not be able to experience orgasm. ".
The fragment "if he has clinically low testosterone or is suffering from depression" is a subordinate clause in the above quote, so it modifies the statement immediately preceding it ("if a man has no sex drive" In other words, people with clinically low testosterone or depression will have no sex drive. KK's sex drive appears healthy. I don't think he is chatting and playing cards with his gypsies inside the zimmer.
If testosterone is slightly below average or average, then likely it would be other factors that are in play. In fact further down the page on the EverydayHealth article, it lists some:
"Some men can have problems reaching orgasm. These most often stem from psychological factors; for example, they are still affected by a traumatic event or a restrictive upbringing, or they have fallen into masturbation patterns that could have conditioned the body to take longer to orgasm. However, the problem also can be caused by certain medications or by a neurological or cardiovascular disease, or by having surgery where nerves are cut".
NHS article cites psychological causes especially when DE is situational (https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/ejaculation-problems/):
"Delayed ejaculation can suddenly start to happen after previously having no problems, or (less commonly) the man may have always experienced it. It can occur in all sexual situations, or only in certain situations. For example, you may be able to ejaculate normally when masturbating, but not during sex. When ejaculation only occurs in certain situations, there's usually a psychological cause. ".
WebMD's lists medications, nerve endings and masturbation technique as possible culprits (https://www.webmd.com/men/features/o...ation-problems):
"There are lots of different reasons for delayed ejaculation. Some medicines -- like antidepressants -- are common culprits. For many men, it's age. As we grow older, the nerve endings in the penis become less sensitive. 'When the reflexes slow down, it takes longer,' Keesling says. 'Another thing that happens with age is that your erection ability goes down too, so it becomes more difficult to ejaculate without a full erection. " You may also have a hand in your delayed ejaculation problem. By adopting a masturbation technique that involves intense pressure, friction and speed, some men train themselves to respond to a level of stimulation no partner could duplicate -- at least not without coaching, which the man usually is reluctant to provide. ".
Some men have DE not situationally. In fact one monger told me that due to his health problems, even by his own hand, it will still take him 30 minutes to orgasm.
To your point about peer-reviewed medical articles, I think I found a good one. There are some snippets that cities studies that testosterone which support your point, but also masturbation: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5002008/.
"Perelman and Rowland identified three factors that disproportionately characterized patients with DE: (I) high frequency masturbation (age-dependent, with a mean of greater than 3/ week); (II) idiosyncratic masturbatory style; (III) disparity between the reality of sex with a partner and preferred sexual fantasy during masturbation. They defined an idiosyncratic masturbatory style as a technique not easily duplicated by the partner's hand, mouth, vagina, or anus. Furthermore, those authors noted that many men with DE engaged in a pattern of self-stimulation that was notable for its speed, pressure, intensity, duration, and specificity of focus on a particular 'spot' of sensitivity in order to produce orgasm / ejaculation. In this way, they preconditioned themselves to possible difficulty in attaining orgasm with a partner and, as a result, experienced 'acquired' DE".

Cardiovascular health is obviously important as if you have plenty of supply, it doesn't matter unless you have highways to deliver them.

As to Porn I really do not watch much at all anymore, should I? I have read much about ' the death grip' if one jerks off too much to porn or no porn that your cock might get adjusted to different ' grips' than when in some girls mouth or pussy (rubber bag or not) the grip can feel different and non-performance can be an issue. As a result I don't even jerk off much at all anymore nor do I see Austin hookers; save it all for my journeys.
I also think (or I need to research) that high dosages of Viagra exceeding the 100 MG ' by miles' per day over a course of 5-10 days might have some impact but I didn't want to tell the doctor this as not to have my Rx reduced.
And since this forum now includes Psychology 101 I will add my shrink told me to stop Ambien for a week and replace it with 10 MG Melatonin and the last few nights I haven't slept so good since September 2016 when I discovered what a Gypsy was and went to bed exhausted, elated and excited for what my future held. Perhaps the in-house medical staff can evaluate ' Does one really need ED Drugs or is it mental' and ' The effects of too much ED Drugs'.

Posts: 6686Heh, if cumming is a problem, then why not quit smoking?
And eat aphrodisiacs such as tomatoes erc. I know I shouldn't say that in here because the FKK clubs tend to run out of tomatoes withing a few minutes after they put them up. LOL.
The diet is very important, and doing some weightlifting too. Especially when you go beyond 30 years old.

I went to Morocco once and was appalled at how women can't go to a customer's hotel room, and the incall places can basically only be found by consulting a tout.
I don't think you know how the independent scene works in far Western Europe and North America where women are free to post ads, communicate freely and move around unobstructed.
The review system works and is best if there are a lot of reviews. When you have posted reviews you tend to stereotype an entire scene based on your experiences with one escort, and sometimes you did not even name the one you did not like.
Women are, fortunately, not all the same. And no two experiences will ever be exactly the same. A lady might like one guy better than the next guy, largely based on whether she liked him. The key to the review system is to find posters a guy has a lot in common with and read his posts for recommendations. They are relatively more likely to find escorts they both enjoy.
You and I have nothing in common, so reading each other's posts is futile, and we are unlikely to enjoy the same sex workers. I only responded because you brought my handle up for some reason.

"The fuel for the process leading to orgasm is testosterone.

Surgeries or trauma may also cause DE. (Delayed Ejaculation). The physical causes of DE may include:
Low testosterone.
https://www.everydayhealth.com/sexua...le-orgasm.aspx
https://www.healthline.com/health/delayed-ejaculation#diagnosis.
All that being said, I must add to my earlier claim that made Testosterone to sound like the end all be all. Obviously there are other factors that are biochemical in nature that affects orgasm, specifically serotonin and dopamine and the medications or drugs that alter their levels.
From what I remember, KK says that his main issue was popping with a condom.

These are all very interesting points. There are also a few health issues that if controlled can help avoid ED. Since a near fatal cardiac incident, certain issues have stacked against me. Cardiac and respiratory health, blood pressure, Type 2 Diabetes, BPH and some others. Controlling these health issues can improve impacts on ED but many medications prescribed to help control them can lead to even more severe ED. My point, do what you can to reduce these health issues naturally before you have a major health event and this will reduce your chances of ED. If you've had a major health event and take prescription meds, read the labels about possible side effects. So many list impact to male sexual functions. The other thing I believe is that the meds seem to tip the balance in the body somehow. In three and a half years I've gone from no daily medications to 11 with a couple as required. I believe once the artificial balance is altered for one condition there is a tendency for the balance is your body to upset, leading is subsequent health issues.
