I was very healthy until October 2020 when I started doing a lot of workouts and yoga. As a result I experienced weight loss and low blood pressure. I also faced extreme constipation in December. In January I realized the damage and stopped all workouts. I went through a phase of depression and recovered by March. Though I have recovered from depression my sex drive has not returned to previous levels. A general physician suggested I take Supradyn and get a blood report which was normal. Right now the main issues troubling me are weakness and low sex drive. I have also noticed a small growth on my right testicle. There is no pain but I wanted to mention it.
