I’ve been taking bcaa should I stop???
This is the brand that I took.
I took it for 3 alternate week (a week of stop between the other). First 2 week, I took just 1 pill per day (half of the reccomended dose), third week I took reccomended dose (700mg) for only three days, than I stopped it. After a few days, I crashed extremly hard. Every side is worsened dramatically.
If I can reach an erection, my glans is ever soft.
I lost sensibility. My penis size is 1/2 of pre tribulus. My mind is blowed up, my derealization is over the top, I have bad cognitive problems, short time memory is totally gone. I can’t drive anymore, I lost my job. My muscles totally disappeared. My joints lost tissues and I have same osteoartithis symtoms. My hairs start to fall a lot (I can see the black bulb) and I haven’t AGA. I don’t sweat anymore, i don’t produce sebus, I don’t produce earwax, my skin lost elasticity and is thinner. PDE5-I lost effect. TRT lost effect.
@Belikewater
Very sorry man.
Did you also take the zinc around the same time you took tribulus?
@AaronF no, I took zinc before. I was taking a supplement for fatigue and immune defences that contains 60% of Zinc’s RDA (optizinc), Potassium and Magnesium. I never ecxeeded dosage.
Several months earlier, I also took a multivitamin that contained 15mg of zinc, but it didn’t do anything to me. In the early periods of PSSD, I also took a testobooster that even contained 30mg of zinc. I stopped him after a month, because it had no effect. So I doubt that it may have been zinc.
They are?? I thought they would be ok as our bodies naturally produce them etc etc
Hey guys i read somewhere(can’t find where) that fruit parts of Tribulus contain β - sitosterol which we don’t want to fuck with. Can someone confirm me that ? I know tribulus contain phytositosterols( β - sitosterol) is one of them. As i can find online, medherb doesn’t contain fruit, while other do. Is there any cheaper tribulus that doesn’t contain fruit extract? Medherb is dirty expensive lol. Thats why i think @Rb26dett crushed with his tribulus!

I have the same experience. My facial hair grows faster and I have increased body hair in general. But I always have a feeling that things fluctuate some, do you share the same experience or does thing improves in a steady way for you?
This is what I think, too. Tribulus brands can be a game of Russian Roulette due to zero oversight of what is exactly in the product you’re taking.
Cocoa is high in beta sitosterol and I crashed from a few days of supplementation with cacao nibs that made me persistently worse still.
With the Mediherb Tribulus, my insomnia randomly improved greatly albeit only temporarily, but also permanently alleviated some of my anxiety so now I am able to work out harder without getting panic attacks.
Edit: Just noticed Rb26rett’s tribulus is all fruit parts.
Did anyone else develop really bad constipation from tribulus or is it just a coincidence for me?
I think it’s one of the side effects of tribulus personally for me no issues with constipation/digestion
Been off tribulus for a while but yet I have no urge to go every day despite using osmotic laxatives.
Are you getting enough fiber intake? Broccoli/steamed green vegetables might help
I eat a big bowl of broccoli and fruit every day. Not sure what’s going on. Doctor just told me to take OTC suppositories stuff to blow it out my ass. Maybe SIBOS and/or neuroendocrine issue.
I saw cocoa nibs in a menu this week and I thought of you. It seems harmless but it did a lot of damage to you so I didn’t order it.
Maybe like a half a teaspoon of it won’t hurt. Maybe theres a fine line somewhere. I took heaping spoonfuls of a really high quality cacao nibs for days in a row. Like cocoa is packed full of healthy stuff. We are just cursed in that its all the healthy stuff that can harm us the most.

Yea I think fruit extract is bad due to phytosterols. I ordered vemoherb and i see it also contains a bit of fruit extract as well. Ill take it slow and see what happens. Medherb is impossible for me to order from Serbia…
Most tribulus brands are actually anti androgenic because of beta sitosterol etc. Only Bulgarian Tribulus works.
How long does it take from trib intake to feeling a bad response in your case? Do you respond badly to other foods a short time after ingestion?
I’m just asking since I have been very focused on what endocrine properties different foods and their ingredients have, but I have found that this has been more or less irrelevant. My stomach has been weakened and so I’ve had a random negative reaction to a lot of things and it has affected endocrine related areas but it seems to me that in my case these are substances leaking out and mimicking androgens.
I am able to stabilize my stomach quite well with HCL and by skipping gluten (it seems berberine also have had a positive effect here). Although, if I take Citrulline (or other NO donors), I get a bad reaction that takes some weeks to get back from. If I take for instance Tongkat during that state, I can disable my penis completely and crash. If I take it during the «stable» period, however, it has a sexually and hormonally positive effect.
I stopped trib since it didn’t seem to make any permanent change and it didn’t appear to fix the root cause in my case. My stomach overrides anything. If it’s not happy I can take any aphrodisiac or adaptogen and it will only affect me negatively. That said, I might be in a completely different situation than you.
But it did «work» in the sense that I felt emotions and joy of life when I took it in limited doses. But since my stomach was sub par I also had bad reactions to it.
