Indications
Habb-e Jiryan is a Unani herbal pill. In Unani medicine “jiryan” means the involuntary loss of semen, for example during sleep or with urine. These pills are traditionally used for this complaint and for related weakness of the male reproductive system, such as early ejaculation and general sexual weakness. Scientific evidence for these uses is limited, and the product is not a proven treatment for any sexual or urinary disorder.
How It Works
The pills combine several plant ingredients that Unani practitioners regard as astringent (tightening) and strengthening for the reproductive organs. Some of these plants contain tannins and gums, which may have mild astringent effects. How the combination works in the body has not been properly studied.
Dosage and Administration
Take as directed on the label or by a registered Unani practitioner, usually with water or milk. Do not take more than the recommended amount. If symptoms continue after a course, see a doctor.
Interactions
No specific interactions are well documented, but herbal pills may contain several active ingredients. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you take medicines for diabetes, blood pressure, blood thinning (such as Warfarin), or any other long term medicine, and before using it with other herbal or Unani products.
Contraindications

Side Effects
Side effects are not well recorded. Some people may have constipation, stomach discomfort, nausea or allergic skin reactions.
Get urgent medical help if you notice swelling of the face, lips or throat, difficulty breathing, a widespread rash, blood in the urine or semen, pain or burning when passing urine with fever, or yellowing of the skin or eyes.
Pregnancy and Lactation
This product is intended for men. It should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as its safety has not been established.
Precautions and Warnings
Occasional night time emission of semen is normal, especially in young men, and is not a disease. Leakage of fluid from the penis, pain, burning or discharge may be a sign of infection or a prostate problem and needs a doctor’s check. Some traditional pills contain mineral or metal based ingredients; use only registered products from a reliable source and do not take them for long periods without advice. If you have diabetes, kidney or liver disease, take advice first.
Overdose
Taking too much may cause stomach upset or other unwanted effects. If someone has taken much more than the recommended amount, or a child has swallowed the pills, contact a doctor or go to the nearest hospital and take the pack with you.
