What will increase...

[THeMaCHinE]

I was the one that said that dong quai and damiana increased my sex drive - and it did. To the point where I had to stop taking it. I have never used these herbs while on depo, so I don't know if it will help, but it might.

Fawn,

I did a search on your name but couldn't come up with a post that talked about protocol (how many dosages/day) or dosage (how much per day); can you share this information please?

Also, I noticed in one of your posts you mentioned that dong quai was a phytoestrogen? But later in the same post you said it was OK to take systemically and it wouldn't contribute to increased fat storage? Am I understanding this correctly? Is damiana ok to take if you are trying to cut?

Also, do you see these herbs as having any benefit for men? Or women only?

Also, are you using the root structure or the leaf structure of the plants? Where do you get these herbs?

OK, I'm capping out at 10 questions ...

Thanks

Sorry i didn't answer this before - kind of fell off there for a while.

I used Solaray brand combo of Dong Quai/Damiana. 215 mgs each per capsule. Instructions say take 1 -2 twice per day, which I did. And indeed, made me ridiculously and constantly horny.

I didn't have any weight issues with either one of them.

From what I understand, avena sativa and ginseng are better for men, as well as yohimbe (depending on health).
