I wonder if it could be related to oxytocin.

I had same experience on my many month SR streak with dry intermittent fasting when I was 17 in 2019. I felt so energetic confident strong masculine and built muscle easier when I was in dry intermittent fasted state I experienced more interest from people even when I had it higher than before doing SR, honestly that was the best time in my life just because of how good I felt on the streak, slept incredibly well, the Post Orgasmic Illness Syndrome symptoms were greatly reduced except when I had nocturnal emission making them return for some days so if I had one before an exam or something like that it messed with things but in general I felt better in all areas and had more female attraction which I haven't ever had when not on a SR streak as explicitly. I do feel as I had more androgens, Dopamine, less Estrogen, Serotonin as the way I felt on that streak is what High Dopamine, Androgens, Low Estrogen, Serotonin are said to make one feel like from the Peatarian viewpoint.

I’m fine having sex, or masturbating with a partner, but can’t please myself without feeling ill. Muscle pains, depression, pressure behind the eyes, spasm in my neck and face, yellow eyes, low energy, low motivation, eye floaters, etc. I only masturbate twice a year or so. This has nothing to do with pornography either, even if I just fantasize in my head, this happen. Jesus Christ, I’m going to feel like ***t for three days.
I experienced POIS so severe in the past that even having a nocturnal emission would give me constant anxiety attacks for the next two days and I would feel like absolute ***t for the next 7 days. If I ever orgasmed on my own account I wouldn't even be able to formulate words for the next day. Seriously horrible times, I looked as ***t as I felt and was an easy target for everyone. I was seriously repulsive in that state. That was from 2019 to late 2021.
From 2022 onwards after I finally discovered Raymond Peat and this forum I began to make progress and was able to sleep again (I was an insomniac) and my anxiety would go down. As this happened my mental faculties continued to return and from there it was an exponential process -- the more research I did and the more things I tried the better my brain worked and I could reinvest that energy into further improving myself.

If you still struggle with POIS I will share what worked best for me. As of today I can have an orgasm and still have a sharp mind with good verbal fluency and the only downside is that for the next two days I slouch more than usual when walking in public and my drive to do things is lowered.
POIS seems to be an inflammatory disease that is closely related to PSSD and gut health.

What helped put the brakes on my anxiety initially was:
•Taurine
•Cyproheptadine

What truly restored me to my old self and made me even better than I used to be was:
•Quitting all grains
•Lowering Stress
Large doses of niacinamide
Large doses of vitamin D3
•Large doses of Ecological Formula's allithiamine
•Gonadin
•Diamant
•DeFibron
6-Ketoprogesterone
•Eating more and as peaty as possible (close to no PUFA)(High carb from well-cooked potatoes and fruit juice)
•Becoming Christian (from a purely materialistic perspective this translated to lower stress)

Items in bold truly helped my overall health and they noticeably improved my intestinal health which was also a massive issue I had - and possibly the overall cause.

I hope this is of use to you. Your body is not irreversibly broken and despite having absolutely horrendous POIS during some of my formative years I enjoy good health and good mood nowadays. If I can do it you can do it.
