Semen Volume Supplements Compared: 6 Labels, Side by Side

Every volume supplement says it works. The Supplement Facts panel is the one part of the bottle that can’t say anything it can’t back up, so that’s what we compared. We read six labels, including ours, and checked every number against the brand’s own site or label in October 2026.

How we compared them

Three questions, in order:

• Are the inputs there? Sunflower lecithin, pygeum and zinc are the three ingredients men build their own volume stacks around.
• Can you see the dose? A proprietary blend lists ingredients without amounts, which makes a dose impossible to judge.
• What else are you paying for? Every extra ingredient takes capsule space and money. If it’s there for a job with no evidence behind it, you’re paying for the claim.

The six labels at a glance

	Daily serving	Lecithin	Pygeum	Zinc	Hidden blend?	Extras you pay for
Holy Grail	2 softgels	1,200 mg	200 mg, standardized	50 mg citrate	No	None
Semenax[1]	4 capsules	None	None	30 mg aspartate	No	17 others, 7 at ≤50 mg
Volume Pills[2]	2 tablets	None	None	24 mg gluconate	Yes, 1,458 mg	13 blend items, 2 colorants
Load Boost[3]	4 capsules	1,200 mg	250 mg bark	30 mg citrate	No	Bromelain, L-citrulline, copper
Maxxm Overload[4]	4 capsules	1,200 mg	300 mg	40 mg picolinate	No	Ashwagandha, maca, bromelain, selenium, vitamin E, copper
Popstar[7]	4 capsules	In blend, amount hidden	In blend, amount hidden	50 mg oxide	Yes, 2,790 (no unit)	L-arginine, bromelain, FOS, copper

Semenax: 18 ingredients, none of the big two

Semenax lists every dose. But its 4 daily capsules hold 18 ingredients, seven of them at 50 mg or less, and neither sunflower lecithin nor pygeum is among them.^[1] It’s the opposite design from ours: breadth over dose.

Volume Pills: a blend inside a blend

Volume Pills prints one dose, zinc at 24 mg. The rest is a 1,458 mg proprietary blend of 13 ingredients, two of which are themselves trademarked blends, plus titanium dioxide and FD&C Blue #2 among the inactive ingredients. No lecithin and no pygeum.^[2]

Load Boost: the right three, plus a capsule of “taste”

Load Boost gets the core right: sunflower lecithin 1,200 mg, pygeum 250 mg and zinc 30 mg, with copper. Then it adds 300 mg of bromelain, which VB Health says sweetens and improves semen taste, and 400 mg of L-citrulline for blood flow and ejaculatory force.^[3] We couldn’t find controlled research showing that bromelain changes semen taste or that L-citrulline increases semen volume. Those 700 mg a day are a big part of why the serving is 4 capsules instead of 2.

Two smaller things. The label lists pygeum as bark and doesn’t say it’s standardized,^[3] and the Cochrane review behind pygeum’s evidence frames its conclusion around “a standardized preparation.”^[9] And VB Health sells a bundle it calls “The Holy Grail.” It isn’t us.

Maxxm Overload: five extras and a short history

Maxxm Overload also starts with our three inputs, at 1,200 mg lecithin, 300 mg pygeum and 40 mg zinc. Then it adds ashwagandha, black maca, bromelain, selenium, vitamin E and copper, which makes 9 ingredients across 4 capsules a day.^[4] The label lists pygeum without saying it’s standardized.^[4]

Maxxm is also a very new brand. Its site carries a 2025 copyright,^[5] and US searches for “maxxm” sat in the single digits each month until mid-2025.^[6] Its page leans on “51 studies,” but those are studies of individual ingredients, not of Overload itself.^[4] A brand with about a year of public history hasn’t had time to build the kind of long-term track record a skeptic can check. Holy Grail has been trusted by men since 2009.

Popstar: the doses that matter, hidden

Popstar includes lecithin and pygeum, but both sit inside a proprietary blend listed as 2,790, with no unit printed. Its zinc is zinc oxide.^[7] In a controlled absorption study, zinc citrate was absorbed better than zinc oxide.^[8] Holy Grail uses zinc citrate.

What to look for on any label

• The three inputs, with doses printed. If lecithin or pygeum is missing, or hidden in a blend, you can’t judge the formula.
• A pill count you’ll actually keep up. Results build over about 90 days. A routine you drop in week two doesn’t get there.
• No paying for unproven jobs. Taste and “force” ingredients take capsule space without evidence for volume.
• A guarantee you can actually use. Read whether you have to send the product back, and how long you get.

The short version

Three ingredients that each have a job: sunflower lecithin 1,200 mg, standardized pygeum extract 200 mg and zinc 50 mg. Every amount printed on the label. Two softgels a day. Trusted by men since 2009, and more than 100,000 men have used it.

In a survey of 312 customers, 94% reported noticeable results in 3–6 weeks.^[10] First changes usually show around week three; the full effect takes about 90 days, which is why the Holy Grail 90-Day plan is built around that window.
