I’d like to chime in with my own experience on using DMSO+iodine+Mg solution, as formulated by the original poster x10d.
I’ve done it over the past couple months. Previously, I had developed a scar on the underside of my penis, I think from wrapping too tightly. Pics and description are here:
Scar line developed on underside of penis—what to do?
This was why I was trying the DMSO/iodine/Mg.
At first, the solution seemed to be working really well— my scar wasn’t going away, but my EQ was great and I was waking up with some big, super-hard erections. I was also putting the solution on my perennium and balls, but I did not experience any increased pee flow as some other posters noted.
Fast forward about 2 weeks, when against my usual habit (I never wear underwear) I wore underwear for a full day after using the solution. Maybe this confined the area too much? I’m not sure if this factor only accelerated the inevitable, but, I developed redness, raised bumps, and a rash in the area where I applied the solution.
This sounds similar to what post #529 in this thread mentioned:
DMSO + Iodine Experimental Treatment for Deflated Glans and Firm Flaccid (p. 36)
Also similar to post #810:
DMSO + Iodine Experimental Treatment for Deflated Glans and Firm Flaccid (p. 54)
So my theory was that I somehow transported a bacterial or fungal infection into my penis using the DMSO. I went to the doctor and got various meds. Long story short, nothing really worked, and I began to break out into itching and hives all over my body.
Longer, more miserable story short, I went off of everything, and began testing the solutions one by one: I am definitely allergic to the iodine solution. It is the "Detoxified Iodine" from the Iodine Source that other people are using.
My understanding is that it’s impossible to be allergic to iodine. I don’t know if this is actually true, but the literature out there gives compelling reasons for it. Just google "iodine allergy". On a related note, I also have a bottle of "Povidone iodine topical solution"— I put a quarter-sized spot, maybe larger, on the inside of my arm: no reaction. I do the same with the "Detox iodine": all hell breaks loose and by that I mean itching all over my body and rash that lasts for days.
So I guess there is something in the iodine solution that I’m allergic to! :O
I thought I would post because some others on this forum might find this information useful.
But quite frankly, this fuckin sucks. I still have the scar on the underside of my penis, and I’m kind of back to square one. I’m continuing to use DMSO by itself, but I’m not really seeing any noticeable effects. Maybe I should try the Lugol’s iodine and see how I react? Does anyone have any other suggestions?
