I’ve never heard of this effect being usually temporary.
If it doesn’t subside in a few weeks it often requires additional medication to solve and to my knowledge, for most people, lasts for as long as you take it

What pills would even do that? I know that anti-depressants can have that effect, but it’s usually temporary (i.e. the libido-suppressing effect subsides after taking them for about half a year).

Shrug. Hasn’t been my experience. I suppose it depends on the specific medication.
SSRIs (depression and anxiety meds) can cause decreased libido as a side effect
They don’t kill my sex drive, but I sure can’t cum wile on them.
That sounds like the worst of both worlds.
Lions mane tend to decrease/kill libedo as a side effect.
Saltpeter pills for sure.
Seems to be a myth. Does explain where OOP might have gotten the idea, though.

Thanks. Those side effects definitely make anon sound like a dumbass.

I only know a few use cases of chemical castration and now I’m convinced they use “pretty” to mean “underaged”. Yikes.

What led you to that conclusion? I’m not seeing it.

They’re making reference to pedos being forcibly chemically castrated.
