Extagen is an herbal male enhancement supplement that is sold online. It comes in capsule form and is designed to be taken on a regular basis to help increase sexual performance. However, certain ingredients in Extagen are not necessarily safe and can cause potential side effects. Always check with your doctor before using such a supplement to determine its safety and effectiveness.
Function
Extagen utilizes ingredients to help enhance your penis size and increase your sex drive. However, the enhancement may be a mere illusion. The Male Enhancement Institute says there is no method to actually add inches to your penis size. Also keep in mind that enhancement supplements such as Extagen increase your sex drive over time and do not have the immediate effects that a prescription erectile dysfunction medication such as Viagra does. The effects of Extagen may be felt within a few weeks' time.
Ingredients
Extagen contains herbs such as muira puama, ginseng and maca extract, which the Herbal Supplements Guide says can help you maintain an erection by increasing your sexual desire. Extagen also contains L-Arginine, an amino acid that helps your body get rid of toxins such as ammonia. Yohimbe is Extagen's main ingredient, a stimulant that is explained by the Herbal Supplements Guide as a potentially dangerous supplement. More details are in the "Side Effects" section.
Consumer Data
According to the Male Enhancement Institute, a 30-day supply of the supplement runs an average of around $38. The manufacturers of Extagen offer to refund your money within 120 days if you are not satisfied with the product. Extagen can be purchased online. The safety of Extagen is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), so consumers use the product at their own risk.
Potential Side Effects
Although herbal male enhancement supplements such as Extagen are advertised as being safe and natural, there are potential side effects. Herbal Supplements Guide reports that Extagen can cause muscle paralysis, prolonged erections, prostate enlargement, renal failure, heart palpitations, seizures, and hypertension (high blood pressure). These side effects are associated with the ingredient Yohimbe, which has even caused death.
Considerations
Male enhancement supplements such as Extagen may not be necessary. According to the Mayo Clinic, the average limp penis size is three to four inches long. Exercising, toning your stomach and trimming pubic hair are all alternatives to make you look and feel better. The Mayo Clinic says enhancement pills carry too many risks, are not scientifically proven to be effective, and should be avoided.
