Dignity Bio-Labs claims that its Viril X male enhancement supplement can help those who experience low libido and difficulty getting or keeping an erection.

This article discusses male enhancement supplements and what Viril X may offer.

It also examines some pros and cons of products such as this, some reviews, and some important safety considerations to be aware of before buying sexual enhancement supplements.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a condition that causes people to experience difficulty getting or maintaining an erection.

According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), ED affects 30 million males in the United States.

The NIDDK states that people with diabetes are more likely to experience ED than those who do not have diabetes. Other factors and health conditions — such as multiple sclerosis, prostate cancer surgery, chronic kidney disease, and high blood pressure — can also increase the risk of ED.

Doctors characterize low libido, or reduced sexual desire, as low interest in engaging in sexual activity. Research notes that 40% of males experience ED and low libido by the age of 40 years.

Male enhancement supplements are products that may help increase the production of testosterone in the body, which can help boost libido and improve sexual performance.

However, a person should always consult a doctor before using any male enhancement supplements. They can determine whether or not they are safe for that individual to use.

Viril X is a male enhancement product that its manufacturer, Dignity Bio-Labs, says can help people with ED, low sex drive, and libido.

Dignity Bio-Labs sells various supplements that may help support cognitive, prostate, and joint health.

At the time of publishing this article, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) does not accredit Dignity Bio-Labs and has given the company an F rating. Reviewers currently give the company a rating of 1.8 stars out of 5.

Reviewers on the BBB state that the company’s customer service team was unhelpful when the customers experienced delays in shipping. Additionally, reviewers say that they were not aware that they had to pay shipping fees until the company had shipped the order.

Dignity Bio-Labs has over 3,000 reviews on its website. Some customers say that they experienced blurry vision, swollen feet, and high blood pressure within a week of using Viril X.

However, many customers who leave positive reviews state that they did not experience any negative side effects. Some say that they felt more alert after using this product, while others mention that they found it easier to get and maintain an erection.

Several customers note that their erections lasted longer and that their libido increased after using Viril X.

Please note that the writer of this article has not tried any of these products. All information presented here is purely research-based.

Viril X’s website states that the supplement increases testosterone levels, which may increase stamina. Testosterone is a male sex hormone responsible for sperm production, penis development, muscle size and strength, and libido.

These capsules contain natural ingredients that the company states can increase blood flow to the penis. Dignity Bio-Labs also states that Viril X can increase muscle strength.

Each bottle contains 60 capsules, and the manufacturers recommend that people take two per day with a glass of water.

People may wish to consider some of the pros and cons of Viril X before making their purchase.

Pros of Viril X

Dignity Bio-Labs offers a 90-day refund for those who are not satisfied with the product.

The company manufactures this product in a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-registered laboratory in Utah. The company also states that its laboratories follow Good Manufacturing Practices.

There is some evidence to suggest that the ingredients the company uses in its product may help with ED.

For example, a systematic review of in vivo rat studies notes that ginger increases blood flow in the testes, increases testicular weight, and recycles testosterone receptors. However, researchers need to conduct more studies to see if ginger has the same effect in humans.

Studies in mice investigating the effects of Muira puama leaves found that they can stimulate nerve responses. A low dose of Muira puama leaves reached a maximum effect 6 hours after the researchers administrated it to the mice, and it lasted up to 12 hours.

However, some side effects of Muira puama leaves included reduced movement and short- and long-term memory problems.

Barrenwort leaves, which people may know as horny goat weed, have a vasodilatory effect. This means that they increase blood flow to the penis. Animal studies suggest that barrenwort leaves are effective in older, castrated animals with diabetes. However, they also suggest that side effects include irritability and aggression.

Catuaba bark may, like caffeine, act as a central nervous system stimulant. This may help a person maintain erections.

Cons of Viril X

There is not enough research to suggest that non-prescription sexual enhancement pills are effective.

One 2019 analysis notes that most users of male enhancement products did not notice any difference in their libido or ability to get or maintain an erection.

Additionally, while some proponents of alternative medicine promote the use of Avena sativa, which is one of the ingredients in Viril X, there is currently no evidence to suggest that this ingredient is effective for treating ED.

It is important to consult a doctor before using Viril X. This male enhancement supplement contains a proprietary blend. Some proprietary blends may contain drugs such as sildenafil (Viagra). The manufacturer does not declare what its proprietary blend is.

A doctor can advise people on whether or not the supplement is safe to use, interacts with any prescription medications, or interacts with any underlying health conditions.

The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health recommends that individuals receive treatment for sexual health conditions only under the supervision of a doctor.

The FDA states that people should be careful when purchasing male enhancement supplements from online retailers. Some supplements may contain ingredients that do not appear on the package’s label. Additionally, some products may contain ingredients that are present in prescription ED treatments.

One study notes that in 2016, the FDA found 40 products marketed as dietary supplements containing phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Doctors prescribe PDE5 inhibitors for people with ED and pulmonary hypertension.

People may experience the following side effects when using PDE5 inhibitors:

A person who takes nitrates or nitroglycerin — such as isosorbide mononitrate, isosorbide dinitrate, and transdermal nitroglycerin patches — should always seek medical advice before taking male enhancement supplements.

If a male enhancement supplement contains undeclared PDE5 inhibitors, there is a risk that the person will develop low blood pressure, which can be life threatening without treatment.

The FDA’s tainted products database contains a list of male enhancement products that may not be safe for use.

Some companies market sexual enhancement and bodybuilding supplements as over-the-counter dietary supplements. People should seek medical advice before purchasing these, as they may interact with other medications.

A 2018 study states that dietary supplements can cause adverse effects if people misuse them, do not take the appropriate dose, or have an underlying health condition.

The FDA recommends that people report any adverse effects to the MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program.

When to seek emergency attention

Taking PDE5 inhibitors with nitrates or nitroglycerin can lead to low blood pressure, which can be life threatening.

People should seek emergency medical attention if they experience any of the following symptoms:

  • cold, sweaty skin
  • rapid breathing
  • skin turning blue
  • weak and rapid pulse

People who believe that they may have ED should contact a doctor. Symptoms of ED include having a low libido and difficulty getting or maintaining an erection.

A doctor may ask the individual about their medical history, as some medications can cause ED and interact with enhancement supplements.

People interested in purchasing male enhancement supplements should also seek medical advice. Doctors can recommend companies that market supplements that are compatible with the individual’s health condition.

Some companies market enhancement pills as dietary supplements and do not list all the ingredients they contain. Individuals should immediately stop taking any enhancements that cause side effects.

Male enhancement supplements can be beneficial for people with low libido and those who have difficulty getting or maintaining an erection.

Viril X enhancement supplements contain natural ingredients. The manufacturer claims that they can increase testosterone levels to help maintain an erection.

People should seek medical advice before purchasing male enhancement supplements from online manufacturers. This is because some supplements without the FDA’s approval may be dangerous.

For example, some may contain ingredients that people can find in prescription medications, which may not suit people receiving treatment for other health conditions.
