Dostinex (Cabergoline)
What is Dostinex?
Have you ever felt a loss of libido or sexual desire? Is the thought of sex less interesting lately? Dostinex can renew your passions in a way Viagra and other drugs can't. Instead of giving you an erection, it works on your brain to increase your want for sex, and thus increasing the passion in your relationship.
How does Dostinex differ from Viagra?
Dostinex is very different from Viagra. Viagra is a medication specifically for erectile dysfunction. Viagra will do absolutely nothing for other essential aspects of good sexual function such as libido (sex drive, arousal & excitement), orgasm and ejaculation.
Viagra is a great medicine and has helped many men achieve erections, but that's just part of what's needed. Viagra is much like the erection you sometimes get when you wake up (aka "morning wood"). Viagra will just increase the blood flow in the penis causing an erection. It has nothing to do with libido, orgasm, ejaculation and other elements that constitute good sex. That's the reason men complain that although they can have erections, sex is still not the same as it was when they were young. Why? Because their libido (sex drive) is much lower than it used to be when they were young.
This is where Dostinex shines over Viagra. Dostinex does everything that Viagra doesn't do. Dostinex improves libido, orgasm and ejaculation. Dostinex is a new drug from the dopaminergic family of drugs that decreases the hormone prolactin. Prolactin is the number one libido killer! Prolactin is the hormone that is also secreted in women after giving birth. That's the reason women have extremely low or no sex drive at all after having given birth and for as long as they are breast feeding. Men with high levels of prolactin such as those that suffer from prolactinoma have no sex drive. As we age prolactin levels may become high for many perfectly healthy men, causing low sex drive.
Prolactin is the same hormone is secreted immediately after ejaculation and makes you feel like 'you don't feel like anymore'. Its part of the reason you just want to go sleep after ejaculation with no will for another. Dostinex will decrease this hormone and increase your libido substantially. You'll more likely feel like want to have sex and you may experience multiple orgasms as well as overwhelming orgasms and stronger ejaculations. High levels of prolactin were also shown to cause depression and affect well-being. By lowering prolactin, Dostinex may actually improve your well-being and generally make your 'feel better'.

The drug could enhance men's sexual pleasure. Scientists believe they are close to developing a pill to boost male stamina, which could become as popular as Viagra. The drug, used to treat Parkinson's disease, has been found to raise a man's chances of sustaining multiple orgasms during sex.
In trials, the drug cabergoline [brand name: Dostinex] was prescribed to minimize the effects of the hormone prolactin, which is produced by men at the point of orgasm.
The hormone has the effect of reducing a man's desire for more sex by preventing new erections. Normally, the 60 test people, all healthy males, between the ages of 22 and 31, needed a break of 19 minutes between love making. However, after taking cabergoline, they were able to have several orgasms within a few minutes.
Medical psychologist Manfred Schedlowski, who was involved in the trials at Essen in Germany, said the drug raised the libido to enable the male to orgasm again more quickly. He said: "We saw that prolactin rises after orgasm and then thought maybe prolactin is a negative feedback system. "Subjects who took this drug had decreased prolactin levels, and reported their orgasm was better and there was a shorter refractory period.
New Developments
"We interviewed these subjects and found they were able to have multiple orgasms in very rapid succession. "This is sitting very nicely with our hypothesis that orgasms and sexual drive are steered by prolactine and dopamine in the brain." Cabergoline has been on the market in Germany for several months and is used to treat Parkinson's disease and prevent women producing milk when they want to stop breast feeding.
The drug had no side effects on men during the tests, according to an article to be published in the International Journal of Impotence Research.The researchers now plan to carry out trials to investigate whether Cabergoline will have the same effect on women. The market for drugs like Viagra has swelled and is thought to be worth about £1bn. It is thought Cabergoline could have similar potential.
How much Dostinex is needed for sex enhancement?
Usually people report that half a tab every 4 days is enough to cause the desired increase in sex drive and libido. However, some prefer a full tab every 4 days. Keep in mind that Dostinex is not approved as a sexual enhancement tool, most medical studies about Dostinex were for treating patients with hyperprolactinemia.
How long will one bottle of Dostinex last me?
One bottle of Dostinex contains 8 tabs. If you take 1 tab every 4 days, it will last you about a month. If you decide to use just half a tab each time, it will last about two months.
