A supplement I've been using has Fenugreek in it...

[Ridiculous87]

Ive been taking muscle pharm ZMA for a while now for a sleep aid (there's melatonin in it as wel), but they have recently added Fenugreek to it and changed the name to Z-Core.

I know test boosters aren't a great idea while on PCT (standard clomid/nolva) and I dont really consider Fenugreek a test booster (but there is research that claims it does raise test levels), but will this have any effect on my PCt and the effectiveness of the clomid? My guess is no, but I just wanted to make sure. Thanks!

Correct, fenugreek is absolutely not a test booster, not the slightest. No adverse interactions with PCT drugs. Good for your hair, though.

Great, thanks austinite.

Out ofcuriosity, what benefits does it have for you hair?

And is this a blatant lie (from the muscle form site):

FENUGREEK can have a positive effect on physiological aspects of libido and a significant increase in sexual arousal and orgasm. It can also aid in increased muscle strength, energy, and overall well-being, as well as maintaining healthy testosterone levels.

Supplement companies are hilarious.

Fenugreek is an herb derived from the seeds of a plant in the bean family. Its actually quite potent and effective in the right doses. It has the ability to increase circulation of the blood directly to the scalp. What this means is that when you take vitamins, minerals and everything else you eat that is nutritious to your body, its being delivered to your scalp via this herb. Once it reaches the scalp, it feeds your roots. This inevitably will result in healthier roots and hair and no doubt promotes growth.

Kind of interesting study on fenugreek and strength/testosterone

The effects of a commercially available botanical supplement on strength, body composition, power output, and hormonal profiles in resistance-trained males

lol, did you read the study or just thumb through it? They're trying hard to tout it but the numbers suck. It's not a testosterone study, it's a strength study in an attempt to compare strength to those of testosterone users.

Silly really.

Im on my phone so it has a really annoying mobile version of the site. I read as much as i could stand heh.

Fenugreek was the ingredient in Testofen that mad it work. Good thing about Fenegreek is it makes you very horny(must have a girlfriend), bad thing is too much and you'll itch to death...miserable
