Ashwagandha(KSM) and Libido Experience

I decided to add KSM to my daily stack to aid into getting more serious about my weight training routine. I thought everything was fine until I realized that I wasn't getting aroused with my gf, and when I did I couldn't really keep it up. This is the total opposite of me 4 days ago before I started.
I know that the science states the opposition where Ashwagandha tends to boost libido and Test but this is the only change to my stack.
In the future, I think KSM is more situational for a stressful time period like at work or a major life event, but on a daily basis, be sure to take note if you notice anything weird going on down there.

I get the GI distress too! It only happens on a full stomach though, it's fine on a semi empty stomach. Do you get it on an empty stomach too?

Yeah, it's only after a few days of regular use, and only usually if I mix it with food, or if I take a bunch of mushroom extracts with it. Lower dosages do not cause it. It's mostly higher ones. I get worse stomach pain from a higher dose of Cordyceps extract. So for both our Cordyceps and KSM-66 I just have to get my dosages right. If I take a single 300mg dose of KSM-66, I am fine. If I take two in a day, or a larger single dose, then I might have some GI upset later after eating. Also, I am fine with the Cordyceps if I keep it at 800-1,000mg. If I go higher, I get some stomach pain.
