L-Arginine and Prolactin ( libido issues )

[KD1]

I found something interesting out the other day.

See my libido hasnt been good at all since PCT ended. It was good though PCT but afterwards I havent felt in the mood much at all. It peaked last weekend when I had to turn my girl down TWICE!

I have some Cialis, but the thing is, when I get hard its rock hard without the Cialis, just I wasnt remotely in the mood.

Towards the end of PCT I started using NO products heavily ( NO Explode, AAKG_+ CM cocktails, 1-NO from Ergopharm ). My idea was to combat any potential ED issues after PCT, and keep my on-cycle pumps.

Here is the thing, my libido went to shit after a week, has been in the gutter ever since. Like I said, no ED, but libido is AWFULL. So I started looking around and sure enough, found that L-Arginine, causes a prolactin increase 25 minutes after administration. Im taking this stuff around the clock, upon waking, before I leave for work, preworkout, and right before bed. I imagine Ive been pushing my prolactin up all day!

Anyhow I ordered some Cabergoline and Im going to see what effect it has. My girl was pissed as shit last weekend, I need to get out of this rut ASAP!

Here are some studies and discussions btw.

There are bunches more out there.

Anyhow I will report how the libido changes once my Cabergoline gets here.

wow - I'll read your links later, but thats a good find. I never heard of that. In fact as you probably know, arginine is often included in most or all OTC sex pills because its a Nitric-Oxide precurser.

My guess is its effect on prolacin isnt pronounced unless you are using it around the clock like I have been. I think Arginine is probably usefull for battling mild cases of ED, just dont be taking the amounts I have been for a sustained amount of time.

Also its possible that I have borderline high, or high normal levels and that the supplmentation is effecting me more than a lot of people.
