Hello, I started taking cistanche and tongkat 3 days ago and today I shedded tons of hair. Is there a way to reduce that? I eat clean, do cold showers, excercise (420 min of cardio a week and 3,5 full body strenght trainings). Do you think tongkat a cistanche might be the readon? Thanks in advance

I doubt his experience with hair loss is due to high DHT it most likely symptoms of low E2. Just hop of Tongkat and the cistanche is what is most likely not causing these symptoms. Low e2 is most likely the culprit, it’s very hard to increase DHT to the point of hair loss with just a herbs. Takes years for a man to lose all his hair.

Yeah, could be that as well. However, some studies have show a 30% increase in DHT after 3 weeks on tongkat.

But maybe that is not enough to cause hair loss.

There are so many bullshit tongkats on the market now, especially after Huberman went on Rogan. I am just going to be very direct here, as I no longer have the time nor the energy for bullshit. Anyone selling a 200:1 ton

Well I can't tell you the specifics yet! We just might have discovered that there are other classes of compounds in there that don't come over in high amounts when you concentrate the main actives, so doing two different

Replying to anexanhume · Lots of disappointment for those expecting the Tongkat stack.

It's coming, but we want it to be perfect first. There's a lot of BS in the science on Tongkat that we are working through.
