Pills have been sold online under the Semenax name since at least 2005<\/a>, but newer entrants are responding to growing demand. \u201cI think people are becoming more and more interested in taking ownership of their own health, but also looking to optimize and generally tweak their body in various ways and often supplements are part of that,\u201d says Ben, cofounder of VB Health, which launched Load Boost in 2020. (Ben asked to use his first name only for this story to avoid being contacted outside of work.)<\/p>\n

Supplements are not reviewed by the FDA, and Dr. Kashanian warns that their quality can vary. \u201cWhile they are marketed heavily and come with enthusiastic testimonials, none of these supplements have been tested in robust clinical trials and none of these have shown any benefit in clinical trials,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Instead, Dr. Kashanian recommends lifestyle changes. \u201cScientifically and medically, there are a few validated methods for improving ejaculation volume and strength,\u201d he says. Semen is mostly water, so staying hydrated is the most important factor. Abstaining from ejaculation for two or three days can also increase volume, but Dr. Kashanian warns that long periods of abstinence can reduce sperm motility or quality. Kegels help, too. While nutrition is important, Dr. Kashanian says, \u201cover-supplementation does not seem to have a role.\u201d<\/p>\n

The mixed clinical data on specific supplements has not discouraged men from taking them. Dr. Kirk McAnsh, a chiropractor from Alpena, Michigan, recommends more than 24 ingredients to patients via his Patreon<\/a>, Intimacy Nutrition Doc. \u201c\u200aI try to balance things based on ancient wisdom, Biblical wisdom from the Song of Solomon, Taoist tradition, and tantric tradition,\u201d Dr. McAnsh says. \u201cAnd then I look for common threads that weave between all those and scientific papers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Within the amateur bigger loads community, the lack of medical consensus on supplements is not a deterrent, but a reason to go deeper on their own. \u201cIf people waited around for science to prove everything, then we\u2019d all be dead by the time they did,\u201d Dr. McAnsh says. \u201cSo I think people are just stepping forward. Now that the internet\u2019s there, they can do some research and think about it and not wait for 20 years until they get around to doing a study that may or may not be biased or paid off by a pharmaceutical company.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pills have been sold online under the Semenax name since at least 2005, but newer entrants are responding…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":305168,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[70832,210,7964,14979,67,132,68,1940,3149],"class_list":{"0":"post-305167","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-health","8":"tag-affiliate-disabled","9":"tag-health","10":"tag-sex-and-relationships","11":"tag-textbelowcentergridwidth","12":"tag-united-states","13":"tag-unitedstates","14":"tag-us","15":"tag-web","16":"tag-wellness"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115377844070225401","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=305167"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305167\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/305168"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=305167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=305167"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=305167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
