I decided to use St. John's Wort to alleviate depression, hoping to improve PSSD as well. I have been using a hypercyrin-rich extract for a week (300mg a day, three times). But my erection is getting worse and worse.
Previously, when a supplement got worse I stopped immediately. But I learned from PSSD that sometimes time changes things too. In this case, I don't know if it's worth it to keep insisting or stop taking it altogether.
Did someone get worse at first but then got benefits with St. John's wort?

Yes, well it has serotonergic properties [1] =https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9342771/]2] [3]. Serotonin dampens/kills erections via 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A and 5-HT4 receptors [4].

Some people claim it cured them. It made me worse too. Also Rhodiola made it worse.

Re: St. John's wort made my erection worse
Erection quality got worse and my digestion. I hate stuff that permanently changes shit. I think SJW is pretty strong stuff for a herb.
Re: St. John's wort made my erection worse
You probably desensitized your serotonin receptors more. Sjw increases serotonin through sert inhibition. It can cause serotonin syndrome. I always discourage people from taking it.
