Hi and welcome to HCM.
It should be taken for 3 months till first results occur. But success depends from man to man and unfortunately isnt very promising. Also it has some unpleasant side effects such as impotence, loss of interest in sex, abnormal ejaculation swelling or tenderness in your breasts, headache. Also it can effect liver enzymes. I suggest to take this medicines but do frequent liver check ups and stop it if you notice any of these side effects. Wish you good health.
