For many people suffering from low libido, the first logical step seems like the doctor’s office. After all, medical professionals address many health issues. But they’ll likely prescribe some sort of libido stimulant instead of trying pine pollen – a natural solution.
Yes, a trip to the doctor is always a good idea when you’re facing a worrisome health issue, but research now suggests you may want to speak to your healthcare provider about using pine pollen instead of those libido stimulants.
The Research on Pine Pollen
Expert herbalists often refer to pine pollen as “tree testosterone.” You’ll find it in male flowers from the pine tree. Amazingly, it contains more than 200 nutrients, and many of those are crucial to sex hormone production in women and men.
DHEA and Pine Pollen
One of these nutrients is DHEA, which is a precursor to testosterone and estrogen, among other male and female sex hormones. This means your body converts DHEA into those hormones.
For most people, the body’s natural DHEA production will peak by the mid-20s. After that, it’s all downhill — sorry, boys. So supplementing with DHEA may be a potentially good idea as you age.
Not only does DHEA production decrease with age; testosterone and estrogen production does as well. Because of DHEA’s ability to help the body create those hormones, many have taken to loading up on the supplement to maintain libido with age. (1)
Androstenedione and Pine Pollen
DHEA isn’t the only pine pollen ingredient that can help in the bedroom. There’s also androstenedione, which is a natural steroid that has androgenic effects (meaning it supports male hormone production).
Androstenedione is great because your body will convert it into a number of different hormones based on your needs. That includes testosterone.
Androstenedione also has masculinizing effects, although they’re not as drastic as testosterone itself. (2)
Guidance on Use
Because of this, however, much of the literature you’ll see about pine pollen use will reference its suitability for male use. There are indeed other supplements that might be better suited for female use – but if you speak with a medical professional regarding your specific needs, they may give you the all clear to take pine pollen regardless of your gender.
Because our Pine Pollen Tincture is made with alcohol (as opposed to pine pollen supplements that come in other forms), these nutrients easily cross through the blood barrier.
This is crucial; if you take pine pollen in powder supplement form, many of its nutrients won’t get to where they need to go. (3)
Why Use Pine Pollen?
There are many sexual enhancement medications on the market. We’ve all seen the commercials and we can all probably name a couple brands right off the top of our heads.
The issue with some of these modern sexual enhancement medications, however, is that they come with a whole host of side effects. These can include:
- Headaches
- Upset stomach
- Nausea
- Muscle pain
- Abnormal vision
These medications are also not for everyone. You may have spoken to your doctor about starting one such medication but were told you couldn’t take it because of your medical history. (4)
This can include things like:
- Heart problems
- Pulmonary hypertension
- Stroke
- Ulcers
- Liver problems
- Kidney problems
There are also other medications that typical sexual dysfunction medications can react negatively with, including:
- Nitrates
- HIV inhibitors
- High blood pressure medication
- Alpha-blockers
While it’s still crucial that you discuss your health situation with a medical professional before starting to use pine pollen, for most people it doesn’t have nearly as many side effects or health considerations.
