Pygeum overload! (No pun intended!!)

[Focus880]

When I first started taking Pygeum about a year ago, I did a 25 days on, and 30 days off cycle. It worked well for me, but I did notice my precum production tapered off back to normal after about 2 weeks. Definitely noticed a delayed reaction, as the first 5 days after stop taking it, I was still precumming way more than normally. As soon as I cycled back on, precum was elevated within 48 hours, and sort of plateaued at the elevated levels after about 10 days of starting the Pygeum cycle. This was with Swanson’s brand.

I took about 5 months off from Pygeum, but recently resumed, this time with Nutricost brand, and I decided to cycle on longer, and off shorter to see what happens. I just ended my first 6 week on cycle yesterday, and plan to take off just 2 weeks this time before starting another 6 weeks on. The first 3 or 4 weeks, my precum leakage was elevated just like I remembered last time. But the last week 5 to 6, I definitely noticed even more precum than before. I’m now producing more than I ever have before.

This is obviously not an experiment done with the correct scientific method, as I’m not actually measuring my precum volume over a certain time period. I’m basing my subjective observations on following my same edging routine, and noting how quickly precum starts to drip, how easily it begins to drip (how hard and long I need to edge for before a drop comes out, or how long I need to think sexy thoughts), and the size and frequency of the precum drops.

A few more observations 1) like before, my precum production is MUCH higher in the morning than at night - don’t know why that is, but maybe it’s tied to testosterone levels which I know are highest in the morning. 2) I’ve had zero side effects taking Pygeum - if anything, my erections are more frequent and stronger, and I’m more horny on Pygeum than off of it.

As the saying goes, your mileage may vary - this is just my experience.

An update to my last post above from Nov. 27th: after about 5 days into the off cycle which followed 6 weeks on Pygeum, my precum production just stopped completely! I’m completely baffled and don’t know why. I certainly wasn’t expecting this after such a long successful run of elevated precum on my 6 week on cycle.

It wasn’t like a gradual decline either - it was a sudden stop. Like someone removed my Cowper’s glands. I’ve always been a naturally heavy precummer ever since puberty. In fact, I was precumming before I could actually cum. This is the first time I’ve been unable to produce a drop of precum in nearly 4 decades.

When I resumed my on cycle of Pygeum after my planned 2 week off cycle, still nothing. After 2 full weeks on Pygeum, I stopped my planned 6 week on cycle short, and stopped taking it two days ago on Dec. 26th as I’m still not producing any precum.

I hope I didn’t permanently damage my Cowper’s glands or anything and that my precum will eventually return. I’ll keep everyone posted if it does return and how long it took. But for now, no more Pygeum for me for a while!

Sorry to hear about your situation. Hopefully it's just your body needing more time to re-adjust.

I stopped awhile back since I would only see intermittent increases that I couldn't honestly say it was the supplements or if just my arousal level.

I used to make quite a bit in my younger days but I noticed it gradually decreased with age especially after hitting my 40s. I thought the supplements would bring back some of that volume but it didn't or at least not as much as I had hoped for or wanted.

You're not the same Focus from another Forum?

I’ve determined that regular pygeum use increases my precum moderately but reduces my ejaculatory output markedly. Perhaps due to lower DHT? I’m not going to use it anymore. I’d rather be able to blast semen than leak precum.

Considering taking pygeum to see how it affects my sex life. I've never produced precum before (even while edging), have infrequent and not-so strong erections, and a generally low sex drive. Which is annoying because my mind races with sexual thoughts all the time but my body is totally disengaged!

For reference, I'm early 30's, do sports/gym 6 days a week, eat well and only drink occasionally. When I have sex with guys I'm usually not hard for most of the session. I should be at my peak!

The doctor said my testosterone levels are normal and prescribed cialis for sexy time. But I don't want to be reliant on boner pills for when I'm topping.

Does anyone think it could help kick-start my cock into action? Or at least help it produce precum?

Did you dare to try pygeum? I am in a similar situation to yours.

i take pygeum and i feel immediate palpitation and irregular heart beat, is it normal? Should i stop the intake or just try to take another couple of days?

This is happening to me too. I think it's affecting my sleep

I have started up my pyguem usage and plan to try to continue for a few weeks. Most of my problem is that I forget a day and feel like I messed up my regimen...

I have done something interesting semi-recently as of Thanksgiving. I used to have and use a liquid pygeum supplement made by some Hawaii brand and was down to my last bit in the bottle. I didn't want to try to deal with trying to get it into the little dropper so I got creative and put it into my penis pump with some extra water to dilute it a little. I figured that it might absorb better if I vacuum it into my skin. I will start of by saying that I haven't had any repercussions from doing this and have only done it the one time, but the reaction I had was felt nice. Basicity I felt like my cowpers gland or prostate was ready to burst every time I crossed my legs, almost like I was 8/10 on the way to an orgasm even when I wasn't horny. That said the feelings lasted for about a week before they went away. Would be interesting to repeat the process every few days for a month to see what would happen, if only liquid pygeum wasn't EXTREMELY expensive...

Lurker here, been watching this forum, investing in Gorilla Lock and Load, looks promising, will post IF any results

I mentiond this some time ago. I've stopped it and no more problems like that

 

[gingersnack22]

I am 23 years old and I just started taking Nugenix total T because I was curious. My T is fine but im very curious about it wanted to see if it would make me Hornier and make me produce more precum, because so far pygeum is just helping my loads not really helping my precum.

I haven't touched this thread in a few years. But here I am back!

So, 7 days ago, I started taking just a selenium supplement. Mostly because I had like three bottles of the stuff still sealed. I didn't add multivitamin, pygeum, or any other supplement.

Well to my surprise, two days ago I jerked off and shot up to my face! But I hadn't orgasmed yet. It was precum! And when I did cum, the load wasn't thick like usual. It was more watery.
I hadn't drunk more water than my normal (which is below what it should be).

The next day, the amount of precum had increased, and the load was still watery.
And even today, load water is less thick and even more precum. But I still haven't drank more water.

Soooo I'm going to keep doing Selenium and try to increase my water intake to see if that amplifies the precum and load distance.

Interesting find, and thanks for sharing. I’m assuming you took Pygeum previously - would you say you produce more, less, or about the same precum on Selenium vs. Pygeum?

Any side effects with Selenium?

Got to love it. Not the first time I got back into this thread reading and seeing the pictures of guys and their precum, then glancing down and seeing a nice big blob of my own staring back up at me!!!

 

[RippedHungMuscleGod]

It happened.

After being on and off pygeum I starting up again on Jan 14. The day after the first 1.3g dose I could feel the pre rising on certain occasions . Then two days ago something marvelous struck me. There I was, standing at the toilet and getting the stream of urine started.

But the stream turned into a string...

...a foot and a half long string of clear fluid with a bb sized ball on the end.

I still had to pee, badly, so I let the fountain flow. The precum string never broke! After I had emptied my bladder I fished out my phone from my pocket to get a blurry, out of focus pic. Cursing, I trashed that and got ready for another attempt. Unfortunately, the opportunity had passed, the thin, clear stalactite had broken.

Maybe next time I'll get the photographic proof.

This is so damn hot, bro. Reading it has me precumming. What selenium supplement are you using? I want watery semen.

The beauty of personal preferences. While I have never been able to shoot my load, it has always been very thick (drinking copious amounts of water doesn't change it). Given the choice between watery with the ability to shoot, or thick but only oozes out, I would stay with my thick stuff. Seeing as other than when I beat off (not all that often), when I cum my dick is almost always in my wife's mouth, I am pretty sure she would agree with me!!!

Personally, taking a thick load in the mouth would make me vomit. On the other hand, I could handle a watery load that squirts into my mouth. I love the feeling of a watery cumshot fountain that splatters everywhere and you can hear it landing all over the place.

5 days in at the recommended dosage, should probably give another 5 days tbh. Gorilla Mind Lock and Load, it has the main ingredients this forum talks about, minus the L-Arginine, And none of the harmful side effects

 

[bosatbk]

It works for some, but for me, this was a waste. I took it for six weeks and did not see a difference.

Interesting, but nine caps a day? Please keep us updated on results & side effects.

I got Selenium by itself yesterday and will report on effects after a while. Looking for increased precum and ejaculate volume.
