I got my first testosterone test along with my STD test in December. I'm almost 69 years old now. My testosterone level was good for my age, but obviously not like a young man anymore. I happen to read that boron can help increase the amount of free testosterone from total testosterone.
.
So I've been taking boron supplements for the last couple weeks. Plus zinc and vitamin-d. The last two more for covid prevention.
.
Anyhow I met a SB yesterday and usually I need mechanical stimulation to get a good hardon (I also take half a dose of viagra.) Well this time I got an erection during foreplay without direct stimulation to my dick. That's more like in youth when you could get stiffies just thinking about sex.
.
Not sure it was the boron, or just a fluke. But I'll keep experimenting. They do say to cycle on and off boron every few weeks, so I suppose I should do that next.
Thank you for this hint. What is the suggested effective dose range for Boron supplementation for this purpose? I.e. not just to prevent a deficiency disease, but to boost free testosterone?
"After only 1 week of boron supplementation of 6 mg/d, a further study by Naghii et al of healthy males...found a significant increase in free testosterone..."
lester_prairie,
Any updates on the boron? Still taking it? Still working?
I cycled off of it for a couple weeks and haven't had a sex date since coming back on it, so nothing to report.
