B12 and libido

[sammmy]

I take 5000 mcg vit B12 twice weekly and my libido remains at zero so generalizations that it "works for libido" are far fetched. It may do something if you have a deficiency.

I absorb it too well in the methylcobalamin form, liquid or tablets - it takes me twice above the normal range, if I take it every day. I suspect that dose and form will raise the blood level of almost everybody, so injections are not necessary.

I can’t handle more than 250 mcg B12 supplements without sides. Any more than 250 mcg B12 and it dries out my skin.

B12 @ 250 mcg puts me at midrange and I don’t feel any different than if it’s near the bottom of the ranges.

Yes, I find the same thing too. I do twice weekly b12 injections and that makes a huge difference in my energy levels. I've tried supplementing with all different forms of b12, but even at higher oral dosages (5,000mcg/day) is still feel a large "boost" when I inject b12.

I also like Rhodiola, that also gives a noticeable energy boost.

Teacrine worked for many years, and I still like my trusty caffeine

Sorry iPhone typo I meant cialis

I am considering beginning the Cialis taken daily rather than the dose just before sex. I am looking for more spontaneity as my girl likes to see wood in the morning and maybe a quickie.... any experience with the daily Cialis? I use trimix injections for hard sex and they are epic...I can last 60 plus minutes no BS.

I have taken 5mg tadalafil daily for a few years now. But I take it for BPH. I find it works better for me for this issue than Flomax. I also take 4mg of terazosin. Of course the side effects are an added bonus! I find the difference between tadalafil and sildenafil is that tadalafil needs continual sexual stimulation to remain erect. Sildenafil does not seem to need constant stimulation to be effective. I have more adverse side effects on sildenafil than I do tadalafil. With sildenafil I get a low grade headache and a stuffy nose... like when I have a cold. Therefore, for me, tadalafil is much better than sildenafil.

my libido remains at zero

Your libido remains at zero due to chronic dependency on 30mg daily temazepam (benzodiazepine).

Thats my diagnosis

 

[sammmy]

My libido has been zero for a decade, before any temazepam. Again, refrain commenting on drug you have zero experience with.

I had the opposite reaction of most on Clonazepam which I was on for 30 years, insane libido. The problems all started after coming off.

I take cialis 5mg daily work good for morning wood. B12 help but after time I realized it’s not sustainable.

After reading every post in this thread I decided to try 5,000mcg of B-12 daily since the raging libido I have enjoyed for the past 4 years while being on Test C crashed 6 weeks ago. As hopeful as I was that this would help my problem, after 10 days it unfortunately has not. I also decided to check my Prolactin levels as high Prolactin can cause these issues. The results came back and my Prolactin is in mid-range. I am currently waiting for the results of my DHT as my research has led me to understand that low DHT can also cause these problems. I am almost hoping that my DHT level is low so that I may finally at last have an answer as to why my raging libido suddenly crashed. Nonetheless, I know that it's most likely not a B-12 issue.
