Hello all, I am 26 years old,

How should I take 6 grams of L-Arginine to treat ED? Should I take the whole 6 grams at once in the morning? or should I separate them, 3 grams in the morning and 3 grams at night?

Sorry if my English isn't that good because it is not my native language.

First before you run to taking L-Arginine in crazy doses, have you been diagnosed with ED by a doctor, and if so, what is the cause of your ED?

Did your doctor recommend it? 6 grams is a lot, most people take less than half of that. But you should probably take half in the morning and half at night

DemOne, yes I have been diagnosed with ED by a doctor. The cause was inflammation in the prostate gland (It was a nasty bacteria). However, my prostate now is fully treated from the inflammation but the ED is still here.

BTBrian, I just did my own research on the net. Regarding the high does, I have read this study "One study involved 50 men who took L-arginine (5 grams a day) or a placebo. After six weeks, significantly more men taking L-arginine experienced an improvement in sexual function compared with men taking the placebo."
So it says 5 grams. Near 6 grams because I have red elsewhere it is 5 or 6 grams.

L-Arginine won't help your ED if it's due to problems with the prostate, as that's not down to a blood flow issue. It's probably best to discuss this with your doctor to find out the proper course of treatment for your ED.

I'd recommend listening to DemOne, he knows his shit.

Hahaha yea it's so much. I had to completely stop taking L-arginine because I experienced side-effects from only 500mg and didn't see enough benefit to offset it. I can't imagine taking 12x as much as I was

I have severe ED and take l-Argenine ethyl ester and other supplements on demand three hours in advance of sexual activity. I disolve a heaping teaspoon (5 - 6 gr) in green tea. It helps generate a semi but i still need to use a tight constriction band to generate and maintain an erection.

I visit an endocrinologist quarterly who is treating my diabetes and also prescribing Viagra. I questioned him about the l-Argenine and his response was that medical school did not cover herbal supplements so he had no opinion on l-Argenine or my other supplements.

L-Arginine only helps in cases where blood flow is an issue.
