Hi folks,
I managed to convince my GP to prescribe Yohimbine today, will be picking it up tomorrow, 2mg tabs. He mentioned that he hasn’t prescribed it in 30 years and it was a total failure according to him. I mentioned PDE5 inhibitors do not address libido issues hence my interest in Yohimbine. Have to admit that I am a little nervous, first drug since Propecia, also acts as a MAO inhibitor, that part I don’t like, we’ll see how it goes. Does anyone on here have any recent experience with it?
Yohimbine from a doctor? it is a herb isn’t it?
I used it a year or so back and it nearly killed me 
not literally but it made me very ill. I basically assumed that all supplements were weak and should be taken on an empty stomach, so i popped 3 yohimbine bark capsules by Swanson on the way to meet a girlfriend and within 10 minutes i had raging erections but i became very hot, jittery and generally felt scarily unstable and ill. My eyes went really red and i could barely see. It was horrible.
So, based on my experience i would say that it definitely works but be bloody careful with it. How much is the prescription costing you? is this what you are being prescribed?
Yohimbine + arginine probably makes for a very good herbal viagra!
Yohimbine the prescription drug based on the bark. Think I’ve actually decided against it, been doing some research, going to change to Levitra.
Hey man do you never tried it?
I have, I tried it again many months back very early on in my journey. I also used it recreationally occasionally before so I know what it’s psychoactive effects feel like. IT essentially just made me feel clammy and a bit speedy but the dopamine/motivation.sex drive enhancement thing didn’t happen. There was no euphoria anymore. It was slightly easier to get an erection but that was it.
This is a common theme I notice when anything takes out my erections and sex drive, I don’t know what mechanism of fin/saw palmetto/whatever else can do this is but it’s like a specific circuit. There is a certain dopamine/motivation/knowledge seeking/reward/sexual pathway that gets completely taken out. All of these things fire together and I confirmed with someone else I know too. When it’s taken out it is very difficult to get fully back online again. It’s also very difficult to do in the first place but somehow these drugs this forum is dedicated to can do it. Then once it takes out it becomes very fragile even if you manage to get it back online again by some mechanism.
