I just went to my Western Dr. who took testoserone levels and they were very healthy and on the higher end of normal.
Forgot to mention this and wonder if you meant that the herbs can effect my hormones in a negative way.
My erectile problems are a bit better now that I'm off the herbs. But I don't know if it's just because I get rundown with too much activity and my body just can't handle sex. I do feel better afterwards (more energy, better mood) and heard it's good for the immune system. The DCM said it drains me and only should be active 1x weekly.
Also noticed when taking the herbs that I sometimes have been straining to pee and feeling some pain and stiffness in my lower back. I wonder if they are too much for me. Hard to tell. I'm paying attention to how I feel now that I''m off of them for a few days.
If you don't recommend Chinese herbs, what do you recommend?
