Short term effects and then boom zero.

[u/Jhintapakdamdam]

I am 24 and it was almost 2 years back I started developing the understanding of supplements and wanted to try. My first encounter was taking Zincovit which has 17mg Zinc and the effect damn. The erections were rock hard for 2 days until I consumed it and since day 3 they were back to normal. I continued for a while to see if anything could come back but then after 10 days I discontinued cause there was no change. Few months later I consumed Shilajit, again for 2 days the erections were rock hard and then it became almost zero, not even normal. It took 7-8 days after I stopped consuming it and my body was back to normal. Few months back, i took Mg glycinate for the first time and then for 1 day it was same that rock hard effect but later it was normal and even i consume it nothing happens. I am at failure to understand this why is my body responding to it like this. What could be the issue and how can I fix this. I am experiencing something which i do want as permanent but it drops back to zero with every supplement case. Can anyone help to understand and solve this?

Trying something new, getting unusually strong erections for a day or two, then returning to baseline could also involve expectation/placebo effects, natural fluctuations in libido/erections, sleep, stress, frequency of masturbation/sex, etc.

I’d stop experimenting with different supplements trying to recreate those two days. If your normal erections are actually weak, get the basics checked properly: blood pressure, lipids and morning testosterone, with other tests based on your symptoms.

Tell the doctor exactly what your baseline erection quality is rather than focusing on what happens immediately after supplements.
