90 mg of Vitamin C causing erectile dysfunction, low libido, 24/7 painful penis sensitivity

I strongly believe I'm still going through beta-blocker withdrawal and over-supplementing vitamin C and D help with the symptoms but create more symptoms. I feel okay, but not great, low energy.

No erections. Eating any food causes pain in hands and a strange feeling high or a headache.

I woke up today and my fasting glucose was 95, lowest it's been in a while.

I can’t even consume anything with fortified vitamin D and spend time in the sun, it’s too much. I can consume products that are fortify with vitamin D, if I don’t go out in the sun that day without feeling excess vitamin D symptoms.

So my routine for summer and winter will be different to achieve normal healthy vitamin D levels.

Finally, I found normalcy.

Now that I’ve stopped vitamin D supplementation, when I ate dinner last night, I didn’t have any of those symptoms of what I perceived to be excess iron absorption.

600 IU vitamin D3 causes hypercalcemia.

Brother Systemlord,

I read your posts with much concern. Have you run your issues by a trusted medical professional? If so, what does your provider respond with upon hearing you posit some of these ideas?

Take care of yourself.

My endocrinologist admits that I’m sensitive to a lot of things and he’s never seen anyone respond to type 2 diabetes drugs, like myself, that target glucose via the liver, causing a potassium deficiency within 24 hours.

I’ve always had problems on supplements, doesn’t matter what it is. I recovered from a vitamin D deficiency in five days at 600 IU, if only I had known to stop then.

I get most of the worst side effects of many drugs.

Even a tiny amount of caffeine, moderate sodium intake and a sip of alcohol will fu** me up.

I’m a hyper responder to testosterone therapy. I’m one of the very few percentage of men that experience erythrocytosis on oral testosterone.

A 7 mg cypionate daily injection protocol (49 mg weekly =425 ng/dL) would’ve been perfect for me had it not crashed my ferritin levels.

My hematocrit jumped up 10 points from baseline (45-55%), average midrange T, which is a good indicator of an over-responder and someone that is extremely sensitive to androgens.

My endocrinologist says I’m an outlier and always starts me out on the lowest dose possible.

Wow must be tough Brother. Have you done any pharmacogenomic testing? Your cytochrome p450 system would be a cool case study.

What do you think about CBT/DBT? Have you tried it? Lots of work but some find it helpful.

How's the weight training going?

Best wishes.

I think my ADHD and Tourette’s syndrome play apart and me being sensitive to things. The Tourette’s syndrome basically lights up my central nervous system like a nuclear reactor.

I don’t have the ADHD symptoms anymore and I do have a few ticks here and there, but for the most part, I’m a very calm, aloof fellow which seems to draw in the younger women.

My weight training is awesome, 7 days a week for a year now. Pictures in my Jatenzo thread.

Lol, yes you do. I have some sympathy though, because I react poorly to at least 90% of common vitamins and supplements. I'm always amazed that people can take standard mega-dose multivitamins and feel well on them. There are multiple ingredients in there that individually will ruin my well-being (niacinamide, C, B1, B2, B6, A, D, high dose E, and zinc are among the worst offenders).

You sound like me to a T.
Took me a good 10 years and over 15k€ worth of supplements to realize I felt better with nothing but food and Betaine HCL to digest it.

Do you have any clue as to why we react in such an extreme way to all those apparently benign OTC vitamins, when others can just chug them twice a day and remain unaffected ?
Heavy metal overload ? Liver congestion ?

You seem highly self-aware and have probably made quite a few discoveries by now.

You have a couple things going on that interact to produce disastrous results. The first is the aforementioned exceptional sensitivity to supplements. The second: your ability to discern health-related cause and effect relationships accurately is quite poor. No one is as good at this as we'd like to be, including myself (many notable failures here in my past), however, you are more challenged in this respect than most.

My suggestion then would be to default towards the most minimalistic approach to supplementation and medication possible. Really, this is a good idea for everyone, but it becomes essential when a delicate constitution is mixed with a confused sense of causality.

For example, I was biting my tongue watching the iron supplementation in the context of a male on a carnivore diet. Unless you have chronic internal GI bleeding, it would have been virtually impossible for you to be truly iron deficient, regardless of ferritin level (not always a perfect indicator of iron status).

So if I were your health coach, my advice to you would be to continue with an animal-based diet, take your jatenzo, and that's it. Consider anything beyond that with extreme caution and observe effects closely, changing only a single variable for extended lengths of time.
I’m in the same boat, the only supplements and meds i tolerate are l theanine, topical dhea, my testosterone and Tylenol pm. This started about 3 years ago, coincidentally when i first started testosterone cypionate. I’m hoping since I’ve been off cyp since July things will reset. I got back to habitual use of Tylenol pm to sleep as well which I’ll titrate off

There’s also the chance that I’ve always been like this and I’ll never reset. Never say never I suppose

Funkodyssey seems to be one of the more self-aware people on this forum, he’s tried about everything and has documented things decently well.

I tried asking ChatGPT for an answer and it came up with anything from systemic inflammation to histamine intolerance to liver congestion. It recommended for me to just do a general body reset which I’m starting

I don't know why. It's possible that many people feel at least slightly worse with many supplements but are not monitoring their well-being closely enough to notice. These are often small magnitude effects that could be lost in the ups and downs of normal life. Even when the effects are significant, people frequently misattribute them to other causes, as "benign" supplements like micronutrients are often above suspicion.
