My personal semen-volume increasing dietary regime is:
- Zinc: 100mg, 50mg twice daily with a meal
- Pygeum: 200mg daily
- Saw Palmetto: 350mg daily
- L-Arginine: 4800mg (2x1200 morning, 2x1200 evening)
- Lecithin: 4800mg (2x1200 morning, 2x1200 evening)
- NO supplment: Depends on the formulation, I use SuperBeets
- 5mg Cialis
- Pineapple juice: 32-ounces daily
- Water: at least 3-liters daily
- Bananas: 2 daily
- Mango: 1 whole daily
I’ve experimented with variations of cum/semen volume and quality diets over the years. On the basis of my physiology, this works the best for increasing my semen volume, reserve generation, and improving the taste of my semen. It also benefits erection quality; firmness, the ability to maintain an erection, and overall stamina.
I am also an endurance athlete - the benefits of exercise can’t be understated. I can observe a change in semen volume if my training routine is altered/declines. Hydration is also important, since seminal fluid requires water for generation. I’m a 16:8 intermittent faster, and monitor caloric intake to be calorie-neutral. Overall, I use a low carb, low trans-fat, high protein diet.
These dietary supplements have an entourage effect. The NO/NO precursors help with circulation and blood-pressure, have prostate benefits, and general benefit on the totality of the male reproductive system.
The L-arginine (substitute L-lysine if you have HSV/cold sores), and lecithin are interesting. The amino acids like L-arginine/L-lysine) have impact on the NO precursor and conversion chain, and inhibit DHT. The medical/science jury is still out on lecithin - some claim “snake oil,” while others claim “gold medal” for cum volume. I’ve experimented with, and without it - absent the lecithin supplement, my average semen volume during ejaculation decreases by 2ml, so there’s observational evidence it works. I use a sunflower derivative, so there’s no bio-analog to estrogen (soy-based extracts have this analog).
The pygeum and saw-palmetto combo have primarily prostate benefit, help with BPH, and have some DHT inhibition effect. These seem to help me on the pre-cum side too, there’s some evidence that they improve Cowpers and Littre gland function. It is a hard experiment to conduct, but on average, without these in the stack, my pre-cum volume decreases by about 1ml, from 5ml to around 3ml - 4ml.
The 5mg Cialis is standard daily therapeutic dosing for BPH, and mild ED. If you don’t have diagnosed BPH and/or ED, the benefit is still there - some trials show improvement to cardiac function, and there’s the clear benefit of being “ready for action” all the time, with the ability to present your partner with a nice, firm erection.
The pineapple juice, mango, and banana improve semen taste. It also helps to eliminate, or minimize caffeine intake, particularly in the form of coffee or black tea. Your cum will be less bitter, and the enzymes and fruit sugars will reduce off/fishy tastes, producing a neutral to sweet taste in semen.
The water is critical, especially if you’re trying to “cum big” or cum frequently. Without adequate hydration, none of this works.
KK and I have turned this into a game. We do the monthly “cum test” - KK gets me hard, and has me cum into a milliliter-graduated shot glass. It’s like a ceremony. On average, I’m generating 12ml on a fresh cum after no sex for 24-hours. My best shot was 15ml of cum after 36-hours of rest. For comparative sense, the average ejaculate volume is somewhere in the 1.5ml - 5ml range.
If I “pass” the test by shooting at least 10ml, KK and I will snowball the contents of the shot glass. If I shoot less than 10ml, I have to swallow it myself.
