I have been applying androstadienone for several days now. I’ve definitely noticed an increase in female attention, but I’ve been experiencing a strange side effect.
About 30 minutes after application I begin to exhibit ADHD like symptoms. I feel very restless, I cannot sit still, and I cannot focus in class. These are problems I have never had before, and within a couple hours it subsides and I’m back to normal self.
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this side effect.
A1 can have some very very negative side effects, especially if you wear it constantly and in good doses (even as little as 20-30mcg). One time by accident I had dropped 60mcgs and I was depressed, lethargic, and anxious for 3 days. I couldn’t think positively if I tried.
Myself, and several others have found that people with higher testosterone seem to get affected even worse than non-gym goers in general.
If you experience these side effects I recommend avoiding it or keeping it as low as possible.
Have you had any bad experiences with androstenone?
Is this the first phero you have used and at what dose, also did you have anything else in there?
The self effects you report are unusual but with A1 (but do sound like Androstenone), you always have to accept a risk of negative self effects as a substantial proportion of guys do get them - most usually downers/depressive symptoms but yes, being hyper could be considered on the spectrum.
For this reason it is not a good idea to start-off with A1 and TBH, if you are looking for an attraction mix, you do usually need to use it in combination with something else. Have you read the “A1-guide” and “A1-Mix Repository” threads in here? These cover all the basics on mixing, dosing and using A1 very well.
Anyway, the phero itself is almost always the direct trigger for these effects and they should go shortly after you have a good wash. Once you have got back to normal, you might be able to get yourself used to it by wearing a tiny dose daily for some weeks to let you adapt. I used 6.25mcg rising to 12.5 over two-three weeks. Use a single app point, wash when you can’t stand it any more, then reapply when you feel better.
If you don’t adapt after a couple of weeks, then its time to consider another phero or combination like IH/P74.
sounds like serious anxiety. I would either dilute your dose dramatically, or stop using it altogether.
There are lots of other great molecules to try that will give you great positive self-FX, in addition to positive female attention.
hard to enjoy that female attention when you feel like crap the whole time.
If you do begin to experience the depression from A1 then my advice would be to lay off pheromones for the intermediate future. You are not going to gain anything from adding more chemicals to your body when your brain is zapped. Washing well is good advice and also applying witch hazel to application points. However you are going to be under false illusion if you think you will be back to normal after a shower. From my experience you can still feel the negative effects of low feelings for well over a week after the build up begins.
Yeah this is the first pheromone I have tried. I was using 5ug on wrists and neck. From my understanding age affects the effects and side-effects. I am 18, but I don’t think I excret many pheromones since I have always had an abnormally low libido.
Interesting how these chemicals work. I think I am going to avoid A1, aI read through the A1 mix guide and I am still working on finding the perfect synergy. I stopped a1 for about a week and have been using The Edge and Scent of Eros with no notable side-effects.
I applied 2.5ug of a1 again this morning to retest it and I became incredibly fatigued, but I noticed much more attention than my Edge and Scent of Eros blend.
Interesting how these chemicals work. I think I am going to avoid A1, at least for now.
Thank you for all the info.
