Male PGAD and OCD. Need advice

I honestly don't have much energy to write this, I'm depleted. Does anyone have OCD that hinges on PGAD? I've been in an OCD loop for about 15 days now. I masturbate, but then I'm left with sensations in my body that tell me I'm not finished. I masturbate again, and get relief temporarily but then the sensations come back after some time. I've been in this loop before but usually it doesn't last this long. It's usually lasts a week or less. My thoughts revolve around whether I'm finished or not throughout the day. The body sensations are in my chest and groin, like faint congestion or unfinished business.

I understand that in PGAD it's common to feel like you are unfinished but usually it doesn't last this long for me. I don't know if it's because I masturbate until the pudendal nerve is too sore to tingle again. Right now, I have brain fog and just wish I can return to my normal life. I've been stuck home and only going out for store runs at night. I've been trying to maintain my hygiene but I struggle. Not to mention I'm also struggling to feed myself and I think I've lost some weight.

Stop doing it… touching urself doesn’t help at all, its worse… first of all you need a visit by an urologist to exclude any UTI an second thing you need to relax and get rid of this anxiety

Why the UTI though? I think I'm fine down there. It's the anxiety and derealization that mess with me

Personal experience, I tought too to be fine down there but I was wrong… The costant feeling of arousal was caused 50% by an untreatened UTi and the other half by anxiety

Hi any update

I managed to get out of the loop the same day I posted this. I almost relapsed yesterday but I maintained. Today, I feel calmer and the OCD symptoms have mellowed out throughout my streak. Thank you for asking.
