A broad spectrum of systematic reviews and scientific data demonstrated that fenugreek and its extracts improve glycemic and lipid profiles. Fenugreek is known to have antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic, gastro protective, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, immunological, anti-obesity, and hepatoprotective effects, and are beneficial to women’s health. Further, previous studies reported that fenugreek improved cognitive functions and Parkinson’s symptoms and showed anti anxiety, antidepressant, and neuroprotective properties. A recent study has reported the beneficial effects of fenugreek and its extract on hormonal-related statuses, such as galactagogue in lactating women and male impotence.
The presence of fenugreek seeds in various traditional medicinal systems is due to their composition of diverse phytochemicals, including Glycosides.
Potential benefits of fenugreek glycosides in testosterone production include:
- Increased Testosterone Levels:Fenugreek supplementation may lead to an increase in testosterone levels, which could have positive effects on muscle mass, strength, and overall vitality.
- Enhanced Libido: Fenugreek has been traditionally used as an aphrodisiac, and its potential influence on testosterone levels may contribute to improvements in libido and sexual health.
- Improved Exercise Performance: Higher testosterone levels may be associated with increased exercise performance and muscle strength, making fenugreek an area of interest for athletes and those involved in physical fitness.
- Spermatogenesis Support: Testosterone plays a crucial role in spermatogenesis (sperm production), and fenugreek’s potential impact on testosterone levels may have implications for male reproductive health.

Mechanism of Action
Testosurge® is standardized to include a specific combination of steroidal and flavonoid glycosides. The steroidal glycosides in Testosurge® enhance the effectiveness of testosterone by competitively binding with SHBG. When testosterone is released into the bloodstream approximately 60-70% of it binds to SHBG. The steroidal glycosides from Testosurge® binds to SHBG and make testosterone free and bioavailable.
On the other hand, the flavonoid glycosides in Testosurge® play a role in increasing testosterone production. They achieve this by enhancing the expression of the steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in Leydig cells. Testosterone is produced within the mitochondria of Leydig cells through steroidogenesis, where the StAR protein facilitates the entry of cholesterol into the mitochondrion.
Testosurge® has demonstrated inhibitory activity against5-alpha reductase and aromatase in cell line studies. 5-alpha reductase is an enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into DHT, while aromatase converts testosterone into Estrogen. This inhibition activity suggests that Testosurge® may help regulate the levels of these hormones in the body.
Additionally, Testosurge® can inhibit PDE5 enzyme which canresult in improved vasodilation and penile blood flow.
