Population: Aging men; men with late-onset hypogonadism

Consistent but modest free testosterone increase (~15–40%); libido improvements in most trials.

Free testosterone, estradiol, & inflammatory cytokines in healthy men
Low
Population: Healthy male volunteers
Study type: controlled supplementation study
Dose context: 10 mg typical (range: 10–10 mg) • Duration: 1 week

A controlled study in 8 healthy men found that daily supplementation with 10 mg boron for one week significantly increased free testosterone (11.83 to 15.18 pg/mL), decreased estradiol (42.33 to 25.81 pg/mL), increased dihydrotestosterone, cortisol, & vitamin D, & decreased all three measured inflammatory biomarkers (hsCRP, TNF-α, IL-6).

Small pilot study (n=8); findings are preliminary. Larger RCTs needed.
Calcium & bone mineral metabolism in postmenopausal women
Low
Population: Postmenopausal women
Study type: controlled metabolic study
Dose context: 3 mg typical (range: 3–3 mg) • Duration: 4 weeks

A controlled metabolic study found that boron supplementation (3 mg/day) in postmenopausal women markedly reduced urinary calcium & magnesium excretion & significantly elevated serum 17β-estradiol & testosterone; effects were most pronounced in women consuming low-magnesium diets, suggesting boron potentiates calcium retention & bone-protective hormonal profiles.

Foundational metabolic unit study; supports boron's role in bone health via hormonal & mineral mechanisms.

Men's Sperm Quality & Testosterone Stack

by@athlete

Male factor infertility accounts for ~50% of cases & is largely driven by oxidative stress, micronutrient deficiency, & suboptimal testosterone. Ashwagandha has RCT evidence for significantly improving sperm concentration, motility, & testosterone. L-carnitine is the most evidence-backed intervention for sperm motility. CoQ10 & selenium reduce seminal oxidative damage, while zinc is essential for spermatogenesis & androgen synthesis.
