Hello there, I have been doing the Supplement game for a while, trying to get some results, initially only taking 1 supplement, then mixing them… After all that, I do question what’s worth it and what’s not, and could use some advise, second opinions:
SPERM:
- L-Arginine - the increase seemed small… I guess I had more precum. Is that where most of the benefits lie? I see it in all sort of "1 pill supplement sets", so it came out like some universal thing
- Pygeum - Yeah, this definitely helped with an increase. I noticed that my sperm had more "sticky chunks". A downside was that it took a really long time to see results, about 2 weeks, and if I stopped, the halt was quite quick
- Lecithin - This seemed like "Pygeum Light". Similar effect, but the sperm count increase was slightly smaller. I also found these troublesome, as they were the biggest pills, and they were always so sticky… I admit, I was taking 2 a day so far, and the packaging says to take 3, so maybe I should increase the daily intake, but so far, it felt … a bit lesser than Pygeum
ERECTION:
- Horny Goat Weed - I gave this a shot, and there was no real increase in sperm count, just made my erections harder, and even then, some other supplements offered better results, plus the supplements had the problems of the capsules breaking, the dust getting everywhere. Maybe I was just unlucky, but this never happened with anything else, while with this it seemed like a rule
- Maca - This used to make me drop precum more frequently, but not as much any more … I think. They made my erections harder, but what I loved the most was that my balls felt more plump and full. A lovely feeling! HOWEVER… I have grown concerned if they don’t impact my sleep schedule, as I’ve began to frequently wake up before 6 am, around 5, unable to fall asleep again, and whenever I stop taking Maca, this changes. I have read about how Maca can influence one’s sleep schedule, but I never directly saw anyone say "make one wake up early". I question if this is just about taking them in the evening , and if I should consider taking me in the middle of the day, together with that third pill of Lecithin that I considered
- Shilajit (AKA Mumio) - I had tried it, and it was a tiny increase in sperm count, but made my erections solid on its own like nothing else, and I liked it
So based on my experiments… taking L-Arginine, Pygeum and Lecithin together didn’t seem to really cause like a huge "combo effect", the increase was minimal, likely within the margin of error.
And the erection, i don’t know if there’s value in combining Shilajit and Maca if the latter might be causing me some issues… I’d like to know if this is some legit thing, or if I’m just making things up, and I should be able to take them with no hesitation?
I’ll be very grateful for all input.
