Emeric said 1 tab every 8 hours and check after 3 weeks. That is what I did. It had zero effect on LH. I doubt doubling it will have a magical effect. Already spent $900 researching this.
Yes you check after 3 weeks and kip taking it up to 60 days than you check agent, in the studies shows that some of the man used in the studies had to take it for 90 day, so it depend on how sever is.
Here you can look up the studies, the extract used in this studies was the same extract is used to make the Tribestan.
SUMMARY AND SUGGESTION
Based on our study, we concluded that protodioscin treatment for 60 days at the dose of 3 x 2 tablets per day could create improvements in the quality and quantity of sperms, in sex drive, erection, ejaculation and orgasm qualities in treated males. Significantly, improvements in sex drive were experienced by 80% of males. A more detailed further study, however is warranted to determine the efficiency of protodioscin treatment on other forms of oilgozoospermia, and to determine in detail its effect on the male reproductive system.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We wish to thank PT Teguhsindo Lestaritama for providing protodioscin (Libilov™) for this study.
