Dopamine agonists as potential facilitators of erections on entactogens?

[EMLonergan]

I've heard that certain dopamine agonists like Pramipexole, Apomorphine and others [bromocriptine (Parolodel), cabergoline (Dostinex), dihydrexidine (LS-186,899), dopamine (Intropin, Revivan), fenoldopam (Corlopam), piribedil (Trivastal), lisuride (Dopergin), pergolide (Permax), pramipexole (Mirapex), ropinirole (Requip), and rotigotine (Neupro) ] are used in treatment of sexual dysfunction in patients who are undergoing SSRI treatment.

Considering the possibility of entactogen sexual dysfunction being caused by a similar mechanism to the one that causes dysfunction with SSRI's, is it possible that these dopamine agonists might be of assistance in producing erections during entactogen experiences?

My guess is that this is not the case. SSRIs cause sexual dysfunction probably though 5-HT2C activation, thus inhibiting dopamine release. So, you can understand why a dopamine agonist might be useful in that case. When on MDMA, however, dopamine levels are actually increased. I doubt there is any lack of firing in one's dopamine pathways while on MDMA xD I believe that empathogen-dick is simply caused by effects on one's blood vessels, causing a physical difficulty in gaining and maintaining an erection, whereas SSRIs cause a psychological difficulty in sexual arousal (clearly not present with MDMA).

mdma makes me horny- ever since i stopped smoking i get way hornier on it and 6apb than i used to when i smoked.

cigarettes really dont help the quality of an erection, trust me. weed on the other is quite good for one

I think you're going to find a lot more to work with with the MTR & PDE5 rathrt than dopamine receptors
