What Are The Side Effects Of Major Curves?

default
Posted on Mon, 7 Dec 2015
Question: Hello. I unintentionally took some female enhancement blend consisting of aguaje, puerifica Murifica, dong quai, Saw palmetto, among other natural ingredients. They were in drop form, and they were in an unlabeled bottle that was later found out to be called Major Curves (identified by a household member). After ingesting this blend, I noticed a few less than desirable effects, among these the development of a limp penis and unresponsiveness--and shrinking of it. It has been a month! Could you point me in the right direction to recovery? For further information regarding the blend in question, please visit XXXXXXX com and read up on Major Curves enhancement drops. I enlist your help being very concerned and fearful for the future. In the prime of my life, I feel I've forfeited much in accidentally ingesting the blend.

Brief Answer:
Observe, testosterone consideration

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Female hormones or enhancement blends can be used in males males for conditions like testicular cancer, prostate enlargement. These hormones suppress the production of testosterone. If used chronically this can lead to low sperm count, erectile dysfunction , loss of sexual desire and gynecomastia. If you took a few pills then all you need to do for now is wait and see. If the ED persists then testosterone and gonadotropin levels should be checked and if there is any deficiency along with hypogonadism then testosterone administration can be considered in consult with your doctor.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks

Thank you, doctor. I can't believe I'm having such serious and long-term effects from only taking two doses of the liquid drops! But as I said, it has been over a month and things haven't been getting better. I can tell you that gynecomastia is a symptom I'm experiencing. Upon checking test levels, my doctor told me all was well (level was at 500-something). Right now, I'm just trying to fix this disastrous situation with my penis. Could you check out XXXXXXX com, though, and research the drops for me? I'd love to hear your analysis of them in terms of how they would affect men. One of the statements concerning the drops is that they are said to initiate a "second puberty" in women, and this is very troubling to say the least. Do you think these drops could have perhaps upset my gonadotropin levels causing what might be hypogonadism? I await your expert opinion.

Hi.

The ingredients of the major curves i.e aguaje, puerifica Murifica, dong quai, Saw palmetto are at best alternative medicine products. No extensive studies are conducted to study their safety, side effects or efficacy. They are marketed with over enthusiastic claims. Yes gonadotropins could have been affected.

Both for the erectile dysfunction and suspected hypogonadism, you should consult an endocrinologist to get your blood work and hormonal profile done. Behavioral cognitive therapy and tadalafil may also be advised if no biochemical or organic cause is isolated.

Doctor, thank you again. I would also like to note that this product has made me store body fat in womanly areas which continues to this day (i.e. posterior, thighs, hips, and, most recently, breasts). Do you think my body fat will forever be stored like this, in these places? What about these other changes: Can I expect them to remain with me indefinitely, without medical care? As I noted, I only took two doses (2,600 mg) over two days, and I am still languishing with the same unpleasant effects after over a month. You think that an endocrinologist is the most qualified person to diagnose and treat my condition?

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

The response to dose frequency that you mentioned is unpredictable due to the lack of studies on the contents of the product. 2 doses alone should not cause such alterations. That is why I am stressing on the blood work and endocrinologist opinion. The product should also be examined to find any evidence of malpractice and any such content that may lead to hazardous side effects. Most likely these changes will subside. Then again the hormonal profile would indicate if any out of the way suppression has taken place or not. Yes, an endocrinologist would be the right choice. You may go to a GP first to do a general physical evaluation and do the additional referral, if required.
