Orchic extract is made from cattle testicles! These are collected to make medicine and for incorporation into various medicines and supplements. The sexual health industry uses them in a number of supplements. Men use it to maintain a healthy testicular function.

The extract is used because it is a natural and rich source of testosterone. Testosterone is a critical hormone especially in the development of secondary sexual characteristics. Generally, it is needed for maintaining muscle mass and strength, for promoting a healthy sex drive and for libido. As we age the production of testosterone reduces and so a number of preparations exist to replace testosterone by other means.

The extract has many other names such as:

Bovine Orchic Extract, Bovine Testicle Extract, Bull Balls Extract, Concentré Testiculaire, Extracto Orchic, Extrait de Testicule, Extrait de Testicule Bovin, Extrait de Testicule de Taureau, Facteurs Testiculaires, Orchic, Orchic Concentrate, Orchic Factors, Orchic Substance, Substance Testiculaire.

The product is marketed too as Orchic Glandular with claims made for it as a testosterone booster.

There are no claims to support its use.
