Anytime you supplant a naturally made compound in the body it causes the body to slow or even stop production of said compound , leading to a crash in the short term or reliance upon the artificial compound as the genes down regulate in the long. Similar to people who take insulin or meth. It’s a horrible idea to rely on medication if the body doesn’t lack the ability to form it naturally, it causes more problems than it helps.
