Datalog: Testicle Size / Ejaculate Volume

All data is good!

I’ve not come across the first two. I will read up on them.

Did it take three months before you saw the results, or did it happen earlier? I wasn’t planning on running tests past a month, but that was based on the idea that any results would surely have manifested by then.

When the Damiana cycle is done I’ll give it a try, with the L.Reuteri Agenda21 recommended. (Thanks, Agenda21!)

I found half of the size increase between 4 to 5 weeks. Seocond half of the gains were measured at three months post.

I should do the same to get comparable data. What dosage were you using?

I have never trusted on any supplements making any significant effect on anything.
This time I am surprised to find a measurable effect.

On daily basis
1200 mg Fadogia Agrestis 10:1 extract
500 mg Shilajit having 60% fulvic acid
10 billion CFU lactobacillus reuteri

Are you making the L reuteri yoghurt or taking a capsule? Ive previously made the yoghurt with varying success. Didnt notice any changes. I still have some whey thats frozen and can be used as a starter.

Ah, I just noticed that when skimming back over the thread. You are correct, only about 5% or so of ejaculate volume comes from the testicles. My experiment with supplements is general; I’ll take either or both, if I can get them.

Semen is directly proportionate to number of sperm. More sperm, more vehicle needed aka semen needed. Testicle size has a LOT to do with sperm volume. Chimpanzees have massive testicles and they ejaculate a huge pool of semen. Like, cup your hands together to make a bowl, and that’s how much semen they produce. Primatologists know this that’s where I learned it from. If you want to increase your semen volume, do more to increase your sperm count and especially sperm motility. If they become really good swimmers, your body will produce semen to make sure they swim where they need to go.

I recently completed a month of Damiana use. When I used Damiana last year, my scrotum was larger and fuller, but my testicles remained the same size.

This last time, there was no detectable change at all, scrotum or testicles. I’ve used other supplements where I only got detectable results the first time, so it’s not greatly unusual. I have no idea why it happens, though. It had been about a year since I’d used Damiana last time, so any "cycle" period should have been ample.

I’ll make a new progress chart when I get around to it, but it’s just "nothing to see here."

I did come across an article that talked about reduced semen production in "senior" men. With that revelation, I quickly found other papers saying the same thing. It would have saved some concern had I know this ahead of time, but like Rumseld said, it was one of those "unknown unknowns." It turns out my ejaculate volume is on the large side for my age, even if it’s not the pornstar-grade output of my youth.

Still, no reason to stop the research; I’ll pick another supplement soon and go back to measuring.

Hey Andy,

So since you started these trial, have you been able to identify something that really works for this?

I have been involved in this topic for a very long time. Never found something that definitely makes the difference. Or better said, I identified many more factors involved into this topic.

I dont know if you’ve come across this comment before, but many times across the years in online communities, when somebody ask how to increase the load, theres always somebody that reply "get a new girl" Well, there is something into it. That doesn’t mean to replace our beloved women, what it means, is that the amount and volume of ejaculation is not just a mechanical process of producing the fluids. But rather a synergistic action of raw materials or essential nutrients, the production function, but then, proprably the most complex part, hormones. It seems like when we are severely aroused, say deeply in love or find real great chemistry with a woman, you cum more. And what is involved behind? hormones. The levels of hormones and the type of hormones that the body produce either during this relationship or during the sexual act. These hormones play a role in the involuntary contractions, muscle relaxation, central nervous system, and all combined creates a huge load.

In fact, every human, every time it masturbate, wether is a man or a woman, in order to reach orgasm we need to use our brain. Think about sexual things that will help us get there. And what those thoughts create? Hormone secretions. This hormones finally get us there. But that is a very basic mechanical process. If you add to this the whole experience of having a sexual partner to which you have a huge attraction and a great chemistry, this hormone production/secretion amplifies greatly, therefore allowing for a bigger discharge.

I have read a little bit about oxytocin, it seems like this hormones is involved in this process, but another hormone that seems more promising, I haven’t read enough about it, is relaxin.

Not so far. I’ll be trying Kyrpa’s protocol next.

In the greater scheme of things ejaculate output isn’t all that important; it just chaps my ass that it’s so much smaller than it used to be. Testing different stuff is easy and inexpensive.

One man’s ceiling is another man’s floor. Always annoyed at mopping up pearly elixir as a young guy. Now, I’d love to have those production levels restored.

Does your doctor not have you on HCG to keep your nuts puffed up?

Nope, she won’t even discuss it.

Getting a different endocrinologist would be a major hassle with my shitty insurance company, and then it would be a crap shoot. I might wind up with some bozo who thinks my testosterone score is "appropriate for my age" and won’t write a prescription at all.

Wow man. Have you considered self administered HCG?

I have the same annoyance.
