Libido enhancers that don't effect hair loss

[Ouroboros]

Hey guys,

I've heard some talk on these boards about libido enhancers (Horny Goat Weed, Yohimbe, Maca Root, Arginine, Mucuna Pruriens etc) that counter some of the sides of common hair loss treatments (finasteride etc).

I have a few questions on these:

1) do any of these actually detract from your anti-hair loss efforts, (for instance Horny Goat Weed is said to increase Testosterone (and hence DHT?))

2) are there any of these enhancers that have no side effects at all, or only good ones?

Lol,

I know that, i'm a martial arts and yoga instructor I'm just curious about the herbs and such i mentioned above.

does exercise help prevent hairloss? :O

 

[Ouroboros]

supposedly aerobic exercise lowers free testosterone levels = less dht = good. Can someone please answer my original questions? thanks.

does exercise help prevent hairloss? :O

i mentioned exercise only in the sense that it will help increase libido and sexual function. i make no comment on how it may help or hinder hair loss.

anyone have any serious answers to the questions I posed?

Yeah horny goatweed. Google it. I've been on it for the last 2 weeks. not cause of of sides, just cause I need a bit of extra umph in the bed room with my girlfriend. It was a personal decision. There are no known side affects for a young man like yourself. Its herbal, its good... and its cheap.

K, so the supposed testosterone increase doesn't screw up our anti-hairloss efforts?

"Side effect from horny goat weed is possible. Horny goat weed herb has not been available long enough in western countries for us to have a good understanding of its potential side effects with misuse. However, there is a possibility that very high doses of horny goat weed pills - just like many herbs that have a stimulating nature - can cause heart rhythm disturbances or increase heart rate. A more common horny goat weed side effect is insomnia when this herb is used in high doses. "
