which SP did you take? powder or liquid and what dosage?

how long have you been off?

#3

took 320mg liquid caps for 2 months… testosterone has jumped from somewhere in the mid 300’s in a little over a month… erections and libido still the same though.

#4

how long have you been off? I would say just wait for 6 months.

#5

i have been off for 3 1/2 months… started feeling fatigued about a month ago… not bad, but i’m yawning a lot and feel lazy more than ever. having a harder time keeping an erection with generic viagra (worked good pre and during saw palmetto usage… cialis works, but only with a woman and the erection has a tendency to fade… i think the boost viagra gives helps more. generic viagra has pretty much stopped working… too bad, that stuff was a lot cheaper.

i should mention, cause i failed to add it above, i took 320mg liquid 2x daily, sometimes more thinking it would help.

#6

does anyone else have problems with ed pills not working?? help??

#7

I would say your values are good just give some time.
