Hello- Horny goat weed is an herb that has been used in China for centuries to treat low libido, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, pain, and other conditions. The active ingredient is icariin, the extract of a Epimedium plant that’s reported to benefit men who have ED. The side effects for horny goat weed are minor when it is taken over a few month’s time. There may be nosebleeds, dizziness, and rapid heartbeat. Large amounts taken at once can result in spasms and breathing problems.
