Yohimbine HCL
MDPV (Methylenedioxypyrovalerone), where still legal.
And:
FINASTERIDE/PALMETTO(Serenoa Repens): (are weaker erections and DHT lower levels COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE for PE gains?)
Thanks in advance.
DMAE - good nootropic, skeptical about it helping or hurting PE
Piracetam/aniracetam - I’ve been taking Piracetam for years, although I’ve never had the dramatic effects that some claim. But I know it works and may help stave off the effects of aging on my poor, addled brain. No effect on PE that I can think of.
Arginine+lysine - I’ve never been convinced that adding lysine to arginine does anything. Some people say that they are synergistic, but there’s also a lot of information which counters that. Arginine is good for sex, good for healing, and good for releasing NO2, which is good for vasodilation. However, bear in mind that arginine can make tumors grow faster. If you use it, don’t use the standard arginine hydrochloride, but use one of these (quoted from http://findarti cles.com/p/arti … 4/ai_n16113264/ )
* Arginine alpha-ketoglutarate (AAKG) Besides apparently improving uptake, the alpha-ketoglutarate molecule in AAKG is a precursor to another amino acid, glutamine, which the body can use to produce arginine. It’s like getting double the arginine in one dose.
* Arginine ketoisocaproate (AKIC) The ketoisocaproate part of AKIC has anticatabolic properties, meaning it helps to prevent muscle breakdown during strenuous exercise. It also plays a role in energy production and aids the removal of ammonia during workouts, which otherwise could induce muscle fatigue. Furthermore, in the body, ketoisocaproate gets converted to beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate (HMB), which can increase muscle mass and prevent muscle breakdown.
* Arginine mallate This version contains malic acid, a molecule involved in energy production. Malic acid helps burn the lactic acid produced during workouts; the result is more energy for training.
* Arginine ethyl ester The latest arginine variation to make the scene, this is arginine with the addition of an acid and an alcohol. The ester group enhances an arginine molecule’s ability to pass across cell membranes, such as in the intestines—thus the easier absorption—as well as muscle cells.
Yohimbine can be good for sex, but I think it might be counterproductive with PE. It appears to be a vasoconstrictor, or at lest a renal vasocontrictor.
MDPV - no clue. Looks like it has some potential for abuse. I think I’d steer away from this one.
You should also go to the Cognitive Nutrition web site and check out L-Dopa and PEA among others. They could help with studies, along with sex drive.
