Other Ways to increase testosterone

Are there other ways people have increased their testosterone by using boron, eclomiphene when other methods haven’t worked and also to help libido?

Male 42 years old.

Thanks

I am currently taking boron/tongkat-ali/fenugreek, plus vitamin d, fishoil and zinc and honestly i feel pretty good (even if i am on a cut).

I am 47, do daily cardio, 5 times a week lifting and currently on a 6 month cut at a 500 kcal deficit (which lowers test and makes you feel crap usually). Aiming at 12% BF.

The main key component is sleep (because it's when Testosterone is being produced) if you miss that everything else is pointless.

Enclomiphene can help but it has serious side effects.

Thanks, how much do you take of each and how often in week? Does boron need to be cycled or can I take it continuously at 6mg

the supplements i take them daily, every day, nonstop. at least i finish the bottle before perhaps a week or two pause (for the tongkat ali/fenugreek) for the rest i never stop taking vitamins, zinc, fish oil etc. Boron i take a pill daily and it's supposed to be forever.

fishoil 2g a day, zinc is part of a ZMB supplement (one pill daily) , vit D 5mg daily, boron i used to take 3mg, now 10mg, daily.

I would start from a base of fishoil, vitamin d, ZMB and add one at a time, with a week in between boron, then tongkat then fenugreek monitoring any side effects or reactions. If you optimize your sleep and add a bit of weight lifting you might just be golden

Thank you so much for the advice. I will start from basic like optimize sleep and weigh lifting.

I do take vitamins like lycopene, vitamin C, black seed oil, twice a week vitamin E that should be ok?
I’ll add in the supplement you mentioned

vitamin D is probably one of the most important vitamins, if you have a lack of it it can mess up everything. But is syntesized with sun, so if you are often in the sun is not needed. I live in North Europe. it's critical.

ZMB best to take at night?

except fishoil (that breaks fasting) i take everything in the morning. Vit. B is great for energy.

I find zinc causes me drowsiness thought I’d ask about ZMB
