Strange Creatine Side Effect?

It seems like every time i take creatine mono its really hard to get erections. If i discontinue for a few days it goes away.

Could this be a placebo effect or has anyone else come across this side effect?

Yikes! Never had that problem with any supplement! I’m not sure i can even guess at it. Creatine does shuttle a bit more water away but i cant imagine it affecting you this way.

Are you megadosing? You dont need much creatine as a supplement, especially if you are eating meat.

nothing more than what on the label. i havnt tried it in awhile. maybe i should give it another shot

I had never heard of creatine causing anything like that before, but when discussing supplements at the gym, one guy said creatine did the opposite to him, and he was a walking boner the whole time he was on it.

Could it be that you are getting dehydrated from not taking enough additional water? That can kill erections.

I agree with Moon Knight; seems the most logical explanation.
I’ve never had the problem nor have any of my friends - only side affect I’ve heard of is one of my mates getting enormously gassy which makes road trips a bit difficult.
Give it another whirl, and make sure to drink heaps of (pure?) water.

I also agree with moon knight.
Drink lots of water!
Also is it just one brand of mono it happens with? have you tried any other brands?
have you tried Creatine ethyl ester? does it happen with that too?

just bought some Creatine ethyl ester. hopefully this time around will be different. il be sure to drink plenty of water this time. I need to start drinking alot more water, iv realized iv been slacking on my water intake.
