Ying yang huo (Horny Goat Weed)

[LifeGivingSword Member Find all posts View Profile Close LifeGivingSword]

I've been hearing some people on this board say how they took Horny Goat Weed and it gave them an erection and that Horny Goat Weed works similar to Viagra. That is exactly what I want. I need something that I can take before I have sex so that I am able to get hard when I am with the girl.

I can't find Horny Goat Weed as a pill suppliment here in Japan, so I went to a traditional Chinese medicine shop and got a bag of Ying yang huo. These are the leaves that the Horny Goat Weed extract comes from.

I steeped 15grams of the leaves last night and drank it. Nothing.

I mixed 30 grams of leaves mixed with yogurt and ate it directly. No results

I decocted the leaves this evening (soaked for 20 minutes and then boiled for 15) and then drank it. Still nothing.

I payed $30 bucks for a bag of fucking leaves. Why won't this shit work?

Anybody have experience with this? Am I taking it right?

I take it in pills and I think it may be working, but it apparently takes a few weeks to build up in your system and then it begins to take effect, it's not like viagra, it doesn'e work in 30 min, it takes time like most other natural herbs.

Mate you need to give it 2-3 weeks. It won't work straight away. And you can always buy HGW off ther net. I do it's way cheaper. Try to get at least 20% icarcin. I use 40% and it's the shiz haha

Well pardon me for being nosey but why can't you get an erection when you are with a girl? Are you old and maybe suffer from poor circulation or diabetes ( among a host of other potential problems that would prevent an erection). Are you on anti-depressants for some reason? Are you young and have performance anxiety? Do you function normally but think by taking horney goat weed you'll be superman for a night? Examine and maybe explain what your problem is before anyone here can give you quality help!

It does not work instantly like Viagra.

Like those mentioned earlier, it takes about 2 weeks to register. Some as fast as 4 days. I've tried it, I've got both leaves and tablets form, both equally effective but it is always easier to pop a pill. You should feel more horny and harder & longer erections.

Perhaps you want to mix other supplements too like the 5Gs.

I think HGW is one of GNC's product

Don't you just hate it when someone dumber than a shovel comes onto your thread making stupid comments? Hmmm, okay sub-shovel, well, if I knew why I couldn't get an erection then I wouldn't be on this forum in the first place now would I ?

Are you just dumb and don't realize that my name is lifegivingsword and I have an ED Log going on here which, in the first entry, answers every single question you asked? You're annoying. Disappear now.

Stand down, LGS. You have made your point but you are out of line.
Rudeness infraction.

[Batwoman Moderator ReservePEGym Hero Find all posts View Profile Close Batwoman]

I am banning LifeGivingSword for two weeks for excessive rudeness. It is one thing to disagreed with another member and reply in a sarcastic manner; intentional rudeness and name-calling are different and WILL NOT BE TOLERATED here.

LifeGivingSword, this is your last chance. You may return in two weeks but you must behave in a civil manner. If you don't, you will be out of here so fast it will make your head spin.

You don't want the whole Epimedium leaves, as it would require eating alot of the leaves to get the effect. The goats which ate them were eating alot of it when the herder noticed the "horniness".

you want the epimedium extract with at least 40% Icarins. Icarins are the substance which has an effect on PDE-5 (phosphodisterase-5), similar to Sildenafil (viagra), but less extreme. Also, I am unsure of the half-life of Icarins in the bloodstream, and if it shorter like SIldenafil (4hrs), or longer like Tadalafil (36 hrs or more). I take the extract as part of my regimend, and also take small doses of tadalafil, as the tadalafil does ot up-regulate genes associated with NO production, whereas Epimedium does.

Horny Goat Weed

HGW & Maca as an alternative to Viagra/Cialis & Levitra. I purchased a single bottle from two different manufacturers (GNC & Irwin Naturals). The information below is taken from each bottle.

Please note:
My body’s response to MOST supplements or medications is naught. Unfortunately, I’m the body type (whatever that is), Doctor’s refer to when the say “this medication or supplement may not work for everyone.” Therefore, my review(s) should be interpreted as indifferent and not biased pro or con toward either of these products. Experiment with these yourselves, your review will also help. Along with these supplements I was also taking Asian Ginsing, Erection Tea, L-Arginie and Ginko.

*GNC Horny Goat Weed 60 ct. ($20) Serving size 2 capsules.
HGW extract 600mg
Maca root extract 250mg
Polypopidum vulgare root powder 25mg.

The sales person I spoke with at this particular location said this is their #2 best selling ED supplement; #1 seller was Extenze.

Directions: “take two to four capsules before activity.” Nothing mentioned about taking on daily basis to build up in the system.

1st day, took 2 @ 3pm, one more @ bedtime, 11pm, and 4 when I woke up the next morning. I was hoping for some reaction each time, especially that morning, but nothing, not even a recognizable surge of blood.
2nd day, took 4 when I woke up. Recognized a surging all day, not quit enough to get an erection but noticeable. My penis was very sensitive (in a good way) to touch; mind and body was seeking sexual gratification (horny) all day, so much so I was embarrassed at times. Also, exceptionally hungry; my stomach and penis contended for satisfaction.
3rd day, took 4 when I woke up. Nothing all day long, typical day with ED, disappointing.
4th day, took 4 when I woke up. Nothing. Around 3pm took 2 gel caps of Steel-Libido (see below), still nothing. Took another HGW before bed.
5th day, took 4 @wake up, nothing.
6th day, took 4 @ wake up, 2 @ 3pm, nothing.
7th day, took 5 @ wake up, 2 @ 3pm, nothing 1 @ bedtime.
Change in routine, took more that enough each day to build up in system with no results beyond 2nd day. Backing off on amount to see if less provides better results for EQ.
8th day, 1 @ wake up, 1 @ 3pm, 1 @ bedtime. Horny day! No EQ boost though.
9th day, 1 @ wake up, 1 @ 3pm, 1 @ bedtime. Nothing.
10th – 14th day, 1 @ wake up, 1 @ 3pm, 1 @ bedtime. No change, nothing

Conclusion:
Over a period of approximately 2 weeks, this particular product by GNC did nothing for my ED or EQ however it did produce enhanced horniness, stomach hunger and two extremely sensitive (unforgettable) orgasms. Ejaculate volume was normal.

*Steel-Libido Irwin Naturals 75 ct. ($17) serving size 4 soft-gels. Link provides all information e.g. ingredients. http://www.herbalremedies.com/libido-2.html

The sales person I spoke with at this particular location (Super Supplements) said this is their #1 best selling ED supplement locally.

Directions: (bottle says different than web-site)
Bottle:
“(Adult) for daily maintenance, take one to four liquid soft-gels in divided doses. For more immediate response prior to intimacy take up to 4, one hour before activity. Do not take more than 4 in one day.”

Web-Site:
“Take 1-3 capsules throughout the day on an empty stomach. For a more immediate response prior to intimacy take 4 capsules 2 hours before activity.”

1st day, 4 @ wake up to see if anything would happen on empty stomach, nothng.
2nd-7th day 1 three time a day Morn, Mid-day, Night, nothing
8th day, 4 @ wake up, nothing.
9th-14th three time a day Morn, Mid-day, Night, nothing.

Conclusion:
As expected I did not get any results as advertised on bottle or website.

As I mentioned above at the beginning my body does not respond to most medications or supplements so I’m not surprised. I like trying new things with hope for something but the results are the same; no effect. Call me stupid but I will continue to try. To date (6/24/10) I’ve tried L-Aginine, Erection Tea, Ginko, Ginsing, HGW & Steel Libido separately and collectively and sadly report that not one of them produced any effect toward an erection or erection quality.

I hope I have not negated or influenced anyone from trying the products mentioned above; I just wanted to help individuals like me who are aware of their body’s inability to respond to what the masses speak so highly about. Please try them and let us all know how they work (don’t work). Hopefully, I will learn from you and find something that will work for me.

That's a good lab test you did, but depending on the person and the strength of the product, result's may take longer. Some people need 3-4 week's to see anything happen and other's may see result's in less time.

For example, ive bein taking HGW for a couple week's now( probably around 2 week's) and just the other day I noticed myself getting super aroused and poping spontanious boners all day. I took 6 pill's that day, not for the hornyness but for the energy, I was doing some serious work and needed a boost and I just happend to have some pill's on me. My point is it takes time to build in your system, for me it took a few week's.

Give it a little more time man, maybe you'll start noticing changes.

The period of time tested (4 weeks), was more than adequate to make a basic evaluation for a normal middle-aged (56) human body. My experiment was monitored over a select period of 28 days (2 weeks for each product, 4 weeks total), plenty of time for any build-up or adjustment my body could achieve. I took the supplements according to manufacture’s direction and did not deviate. If anything could have happened I’m convinced it would have.
