Hi guys, so a couple months ago I started taking PES TruMulti instead of my usual Orange Triad, and I have to say for the first 3 weeks my libido was crazy high, load increased and I was thinking about that all the time.

Although after the first weeks, the situation changed drastically - I was still kinda able to mantain erections but it was taking me soooooooo long to ejaculate, even by myself. The sex drive was definitely lower than without using it.

What may have caused this?

There are so many factors that could cause a lowered libido that are independent of ashwagandga. Any notable changes in diet and training?
 
Ive been on KSM-66 for about a month or so now, no libido issues here. shouldn't be altered in users from the hormone profiles in studies
 
Possibly you increased stress in your life?
If you think its the Ashwagandha, drop it for a couple of weeks and see if libido returns.

I already dropped it and libido returned to normal. Apart from TruMulti no other significant changes really

Interesting. My libido has been down lately - but my stress up bigtime. How many days did it take without Ashwagandha to notice the libido increase?
 
If TruMulti delays ejaculating, I'll buy a ton lol jk.

I have seen people running natty test products complain of lowered libido, even though others get a big boost in libido. Most people blame the stinging nettle, however those products contain Ashwagandha. Interesting.
 
Your original increase in libido may have been because a testosterone boosting supplement was introduced that your body wasn’t used to but over time it adjusted accordingly, dropping the libido back to normal. If you decided to jerk off a lot during that initial libido spike then you probably desensitized your dick a bit, which is now making it harder to cum, and to get hard in general. If your looking for another natural way to boost testosterone you could try royal jelly.
 
What dosage were you taking? Ashwaganda (including KSM-66) is likely anti-libido at higher doses due to its affinity for serotonin which is associated with loss of libido. There's a lot of online reports saying that it reduced libido and I have also personally experienced this if I go above 300mg of KSM-66/day. Some people can handle 600mg - 1200mg just fine though. Also, since ash increases thyroid hormones it can drive you hyperthyroid which can also contribute to a loss in sex drive (not to mention that high levels of thyroid also ramps up estrogen).
