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.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.
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!
