Ashwaghanda and testosterone
Poast new message in this thread
Date: November 24th, 2021 8:47 PM Author: insecure copper hospital roommate Many of you know I've been having issues that seem related to testosterone or reproductive plumbing in some way recently
Igor from Vitruvian Physique mentioned in a new video today that Ashwaghanda has some legit science behind it as far as natural testosterone support. Has anyone here done any research on this? Seeing if I can avoid re-inventing the wheel there. Thank |

Date: November 24th, 2021 8:59 PM Author: Excitant Alcoholic Old Irish Cottage Chapel I'm going to give you some advice you're not going to like.
Your endocrine system will be severely inhibited when you dip below a certain level of visceral fat, when you stay in a sharp caloric deficit for extended periods of time, and when you don't consume enough cholesterol. Test is literally synthesized from a base cholesterol molecule (as are all of your other androgens).
I don't know what your symptoms are, and I don't know your current diet and body composition, but my hunch based on your poasting corpus is that all of these things are probably deficient in some way (i.e. you are probably too lean and skinny, and not eating the right food for your endocrine system to produce what you need).
Ashwagandha is good; so are zinc orotate, vitamin D, folic acid, and DHEA. But none of those will help you if the other issues aren't fixed. |
|
Date: November 24th, 2021 9:07 PM Author: insecure copper hospital roommate I have been reverse dieting for metabolic repair and I'm no longer in a significant deficit as of some time ago. If the doctors are still stumped and my condition resolves as I gain weight and fat through 2022Q1/Q2 you'll be proven right (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4972001&forum_id=2#43504159) |
|
Date: November 24th, 2021 9:24 PM Author: Excitant Alcoholic Old Irish Cottage Chapel Increase your raw egg consumption (I like mixing them in shakes). Also your red meat consumption. Best sources of healthy cholesterol.
Supplements: - 50mg Zinc Orotate - 5,000 iu Vitamin D - 400-800mg magnesium - 250mg DHEA - 250mg Tongkat Ali - 10mg boron - 5g Ashwagandha - 5g black maca - 5g glycine
take all of this daily, and take the glycine, zinc, and magnesium before bed. if this doesn't help, you're beyond supplements. |
|
Date: November 24th, 2021 9:25 PM Author: insecure copper hospital roommate Thanks for the 180 tip (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4972001&forum_id=2#43504218) |
|
Date: November 24th, 2021 9:26 PM Author: Excitant Alcoholic Old Irish Cottage Chapel np. don't take all the magnesium at once or you'll shit yourself. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4972001&forum_id=2#43504226) |
|
Date: November 24th, 2021 9:56 PM Author: Galvanic flesh property MNever heard about glycine or black maca — are those really proven effective? Not questioning your knowledge just genuinely curious and looking to add to my cocktail
Edit: started looking into these and there’s some legit science behind them. DHEA seems concerning though for long term use. |
|
Date: November 25th, 2021 12:22 AM Author: Excitant Alcoholic Old Irish Cottage Chapel Anecdotally: oh yeah. Data-wise: yeah, there's some decent data behind them. I'm not sure if glycine helps simply by improving sleep quality, but it does that very well -- take it 30m before bed. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4972001&forum_id=2#43505123) |

|
Date: November 24th, 2021 9:21 PM Author: Galvanic flesh property Done a shit ton of research on this. Never had any low T issue that I’ve noticed but just generally getting older wanted to make sure I did what I could to boost. My cocktail:
Tongkat Ali Ashwaghanda Zinc Magnesium D3 Fadogia Agrestis (done this on and off) One zero calorie iced tea per day (edit: I like the Pure Leaf Unsweetened because it has high caffeine content) Edit: Ginseng too
I’ve done creatine in the past too but don’t like to stay on it.
This regimen has changed my life immensely. I have sustained tremendous willpower to work out and work hard professionally that’s fundamentally different from anything I felt before and it’s now going on 8 months so it’s not a flash in the pan. I look jacked but not unnaturally so, my sex drive is great, I have tons more energy. Either it works or it’s the strongest placebo effect you can imagine and frankly I don’t care either way. |

Date: November 29th, 2021 8:08 AM Author: Galvanic flesh property Are you just doing Ashwaghanda so far? Was thinking it may not work great for you because it’s mechanism of action is to suppress cortisol which then boosts T. If you have no fat then you’re probably not producing much cortisol to being with. Some of the other supplements like Tongkat Ali may be a better bet for you.

|
Date: November 29th, 2021 5:14 PM Author: Histrionic church building i actually think i've probably had it for many years but didn't realize it, and it started to get worse a year or so ago.
years ago i'd occasionally get pain in my perineum, but i didn't really think much of it. it would go away and i'd forget about it. no other symptoms.
the last two or three years, i noticed i would have difficulty starting a urine stream occasionally.
then a little over a year ago one morning i couldn't piss at all. my dick hurt, my perineum hurt, and i couldn't piss or even shit.
it got better, but it will still come and go to varying degrees, and would often be accompanied by stinging when i pissed.
in the months that followed my libido tanked. i was having difficulty with erections and started using cialis on weekends. (which did help, and i believed help ease my other symptoms).
i realized around this time that i hadn't been getting morning wood for years.
as i did my research, i came across chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome, and it seemed to hit every symptom.
basically, i do a lot of sitting for my job, and i internalize stress, and have a habit of tensing up unconsciously. over the years i thinking my pelvic floor muscles just kept getting tighter and tighter.
i'd go into more detail, but i'm writing quickly just to get a few things out before i have to leave for a meeting. anyway, i don't want to get a prostate exam, so i've been putting off seeing a doctor, but i figure i better suck it up and get it done and see if there's medication i can take. i also want to get my T levels checked to see if that's contributing to my low libido. |
