Topical Yohimbe and other herbs

Has anyone tried applying yohimbe/yohimbine to their members via carrier oil? Any other herbs?

If anyone has applied anything locally to the penis, other than EVO, but including EVO with extras, I would be really curious to know the results.

I doubt it will move transdermally, no matter the carrier, but maybe someone has tried it.

As you may know, you need to be very careful with yohimbine. Most of it is unrefined so you don’t know what dosage you are getting no matter what it says on the container. It will raise blood pressure, sometimes to dangerous levels and can cause insomnia and anxiety.

There is a prescription variety which makes dosage far more accurate but even that is potentially harmful if you don’t know exaxctly what you are doing.

There are some topical yohimbine products available for body builders. They use it for spot fat reduction, I have looked for a local source, but can’t find one. It should be available on bodybuilding.com. They are also expensive. The idea makes sense for the penis, but I just haven’t tried it. I have also looked for a cream that would give me an inflammatory response, like with a benzyl nicotinate in it, as in lip plumping creams. But they are also expensive so I haven’t tried them, they also seem to contain vasoconstrictors like camphor that I feel would work against plumping up the penis. So I’m looking for a cream that contains just inflammatories like benzyl nicotinate or vasodilators like arginine, but haven’t found one. If I’m going to pay for it I want it to only have what I want in it.

Has anyone tried VigRx oil yet. I have been thinking about trying it but I would like to hear from someone who has used it. I have been useing DHEA for years and about the only thing I know that it has helped is that my hair grows really fast. I also use ginko and yohimbe, also L Arginine.

Onedragon, did you apply the ginko, yohimbe or L Arginine to the penis itself? Either way, do you think any of the products are helping?

I’m beginning to think yohimbe would be inappropriate as a topical agent. I just read (on wikipedia—not the end all of information obviously) that yohimbe exerts it’s sexual effects indirectly by increasing the release of noradrenaline. This would take place in the central nervous system and thus it would not be beneficial to apply the yohimbe locally. (Bodybuilding uses are a different affair, relying on modification of alpha 2 receptors in fat cells). Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

I think something like arginine or NO2 products might definitely hold some weight as a topical though, since NO2 is very locally acting (diffuses as gas).

I don’t think yohimbine works topically. Like you said, it works on the level of the central nervous system. Whatever is absorbed through the skin is so minute that it will be ineffective.

No I do not put those supplements on topically. They are just supplements that I take. I am just trying to find out about VigRx oil. It sounds interesting. Thanks

I don’t see how yohimbine could work as a topical application, but NOX2 just might. If you mixed it with DMSO or something, but I wouldn’t want to be the guinea pig. You guys let me know how it turns out.

figaro:

I’ve always heard there is no such thing as spot reduction. If this sort of things worked it would be great to apply to the fat pad. The lip pufferupper sounds interesting also. Please keep us posted if you learn more on this.

Thanks! Glad to be here.

So my AAKG came in the mail yesterday.. I’ll let you know if I go for that whole guinea pig thing.

I have. A combination with catsclaw bark and flax oil will work better. It works but not too effective. Ginseng may work better. Deink ginseng manuka and stretch it out.
