I've just started this regime too. Nothing to report yet, but from what I've read I'm opting for the pessary mode as its straight to source and I'm banking on the benefit being localised to the areas that need it most, (apparently EPO is a prostaglandin like semen). I guess its a case of watch and learn :)
