Try eating raw oysters as well as "high-meat".

Interesting. What diet have you been following? Did it get worse on your new diet?

The simple and basic answer would be nutrient deficiencies/wrong ratios I think. Or like in my case severe indigestion, it doesn't matter what I eat I tried a lot of things. Even raw eggs/meat or egg yolks that I can get here I don't digest. I don't know the reasons am trying to fix mine for quite some time now.

I would refrain from high estrogen/hormonal foods such as eggs. I also find that if intestinal motility is slow, sexual desire is minimal. I also noticed that certain things can trigger an immediate sexual desire, for example, if I drink certain beer brands I want to fuck within minutes. Its crazy, I tried asparagus, oysters..and had zero "boosts". Most commercial beer brands don´t work at all. I am not sure on what this depends on. The ones that cause this immediate "hornyness" are "Märzen" beers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Märzen. The thing with drinks is that they get digested very easily. Then again beer apparently is high in estrogen. But for some reason it always worked very well. I could speculate that it kills parasites (which beer can do) and the carbonation gives yo more stomach acid, which breaks food down faster, makes it softer, hence easier for digestion. If your stomach acid is low or you have indigestion and slow peristalsis and you need to break down harder foods such as meats and fats, then you can eat the most "horny" foods on the planet, it won´t change much. I think key to having sexual desire is improving your intestinal motility. Back in the days even a little bit of peanut butter, ground oats or chestnut flower worked fast, too much clogged up the intestines, which had adverse effects. Small amounts work well because it acted like a sponge taking all that food matter that was stuck in the intestines and increased motility, which I find improves sex life a lot. Cleaned gut= sexual desire I found.

Agreed. Proper digestion I guess. I think most people who go paleo/keto/carnivore call their constipation a slow, more efficient digestion. From my personal experience eating just meats no fiber slows down bowel motility. And no the meat and so on didn't digest more slowly I had the common signs of indigestion, always. And that indigestion causes side-effects for me personally my libido and function is not that bad but I struggle in other areas. If you are not feeling better somewhat within a month it's not working, that's my current stance on adaptation/detox. I will add that by only even eating potatoes and steamed carrots I had daily bowel movement, smooth, small and with no pain or anything. I am just concerned about all the starch and oxalates. My skin felt smooth on the potato diet but it was also dry though.

When I went carnivore everything was great except for bowel movements, I mean they were better than on plant-based, but dairy slowed things down significantly. Sparkling water helped for motility. If you HCI or bile is not working properly, then meat and fat only won´t work, unless you eat rendered fat such as lard, since its super soft. There is an adaption period, surely, but if after some time you still have issues with digestion, then other solutions might need to be looked out for, such as adding veggies. So now with almost every meat meal I eat tomatoes, onion, squashes, bell peppers, aubergine, pumpkin, olives, capers, avocado and so forth. Then some specific berries and nuts such as cranberry, black currant, walnut, hazelnut, brazil nut and sometimes pumpkin seeds, allthough i find the oil is better. I read that if you have digestive issues selenium can be beneficial. Lately I do crave sardines and brazil nuts, both high in selenium. I also try and focus on mag and copper, so pumpkin, hazelnut, walnut would be a good non animal option. for copper liver would be best, but i have issues digesting it. 100 percent chocolate with zero additives or sugar is great as well for minerals such as mag, but finding a dark chocolate that has zero additives and tastes good is hard. Only issue is that its a high ox food, but if you just eat a bit, the benefits, at least so far, outshines the neg for me. Motility improved.
So I focus on foods that are low carb, do not have too much vitamin A (to avoid V A toxicity) and have low oxalate amount. Everything soft makes digestion easy, hard things make it worse, because of low stomach acid. If you were to eat potatoes at least eat red skin potatoes, they are lower in carbs, medium oxalate and have a lower GI, among other things. Forget white or purple potatoes. Same as with all color varieties of sweet potatoes, all of them have high ox. Too much carrots I would be carful with, since they are way too high in A and hybrid.

Daily consumption of raw beef / lamb, just palm sized amount should do it. Oysters, try at least one lunch a week. Ginseng extracts / capsules (not tea) Tongkat Ali supplements Get enough sleep / rest. Vitamin D / Sun Eat more carbs. (zero carb or very low carb kills my erections)
Do not use condoms... skin to skin.
Try different women. (sometimes it depends on the vibe you have with your woman, or you just need a different pussy... really.)
"could remain hard after several ejaculations." Personally, I was never a multiple ejaculation guy, even when I was young... ... my technique is to just have long time passionate sex, then one time ejaculation big time. Maybe you aren't meant to do several ejaculations in a sexual session with a woman.
