“Could I Have Blocked My Qi?”

Hi everyone. I’m 46 years old and I’m not a Qigong practitioner, but about three years ago I became interested in semen retention practices and Taoist alchemy.

During that period, while having sex with my partner at the time, I tried putting these practices into effect for the first time. At the moment of orgasm, I strongly contracted my sphincter with the intention of preventing ejaculation and, at the same time, directing the energy of the orgasm upward toward the higher energy centers.

I don’t know if I did it correctly. In fact, I barely felt any pleasure at that moment.

Shortly afterward, I started feeling very strange. For the next two or three days, I had an unpleasant sensation in my chest, as if there were something there that I couldn’t identify or that was difficult to describe—something that I interpreted as a kind of energetic disturbance or sensation.

During those nights, I also had very strange dreams and difficulty sleeping.

The strangest part of the whole experience is that my partner told me she was feeling practically the same thing.

After three days, I started doing some meditations with the intention of transmuting the energy. I don’t know whether that had anything to do with what happened, but the strange thing is that both of us stopped experiencing that sensation on the same day, even though by then we were no longer together.

What intrigues me the most, and I don’t know if it could be related to this experience, is that my sexuality seems to have changed since that occasion.

Since then, I haven’t experienced the same level of pleasure during sex. I’ve also noticed a decrease in sexual desire, and it has become harder for me to feel that spark that I used to experience when I was with a woman.

To this day, I still wonder what might have happened.

Could this have any explanation from the perspective of sexual energy or Qi/Chi? Could it be related to the difficulty I now have in feeling that sexual connection, and is there any way I could potentially reverse it or improve it?

I would especially appreciate hearing from people with experience in Qigong, Taoist practices, sexual energy work, or semen retention who might have some insight into what could have happened.

What Happened to My Sexual Energy?”

Hola a todos. Tengo 46 años y no soy practicante de Qigong, pero hace como tres años me interesé en las prácticas de retención de semen y la alquimia taoísta.

En ese periodo, mientras tenía sexo con mi pareja de ese momento, intenté aplicar estas prácticas por primera vez. En el momento del orgasmo, contraí con fuerza mi esfínter con la intención de evitar la eyaculación y, al mismo tiempo, dirigir la energía del orgasmo hacia arriba, hacia los centros de energía más altos.

No sé si lo hice bien. De hecho, en ese momento apenas sentí placer.

Poco después empecé a sentirme muy raro. Durante los dos o tres días siguientes tuve una sensación desagradable en el pecho, como si hubiera algo ahí que no podía identificar o que era difícil de describir—algo que interpreté como una especie de alteración o sensación energética.

En esas noches también tuve sueños muy extraños y me costaba dormir.

Lo más raro de toda la experiencia es que mi pareja me dijo que ella estaba sintiendo prácticamente lo mismo.

Después de tres días, empecé a hacer algunas meditaciones con la intención de transmutar la energía. No sé si eso tuvo que ver con lo que pasó, pero lo extraño es que los dos dejamos de sentir esa sensación el mismo día, aunque para entonces ya no estábamos juntos.

Lo que más me intriga, y no sé si podría estar relacionado con esta experiencia, es que mi sexualidad parece haber cambiado desde ese momento.

Desde entonces, no he vuelto a experimentar el mismo nivel de placer durante el sexo. También he notado una disminución del deseo sexual, y se me ha hecho más difícil sentir ese “chispazo” que antes tenía cuando estaba con una mujer.

Hasta el día de hoy, todavía me pregunto qué pudo haber pasado.

¿Puede haber alguna explicación desde la perspectiva de la energía sexual o el Qi/Chi? ¿Podría estar relacionado con la dificultad que ahora tengo para sentir esa conexión sexual, y hay alguna forma en la que pudiera revertirlo o mejorarlo?

Question about Freezing 2

Yesterday I asked whether you would recommend freezing pre-filled syringes containing the reconstituted peptide to make it last longer. However, I was told that this is not the best approach.

My question now is: what if I store half of the reconstituted peptide in the vial that originally contained the bacteriostatic water? That way, I could keep it for about one additional month.

Freeze peptide

I bought a 10mg vial of kisspeptin, but depending on the dosage, it should last me 2 to 3 months. I've read that some people reconstitute it, prepare the syringes, and freeze them in the freezer. Has anyone done this? How risky might it be? Any suggestions or recommendations?
