    clomid depression

    I read a few posts saying that clomid made them very emotional, and even cause depression. Is there any supplement/vitamins i can take to prevent this?

    You might want to look into St. Johns Wart if depression becomes a problem.

    Dealing with real depression is one thing; worrying about clomid getting you down is another. Let us know what your deal is man and we might be able to help you a little bit.

    i think the moderator einstein commented on clomid before by saying that it doesnt cause depression, the depression is caused by your hormone levels being low and recovering after a cycle.
    since people take clomid after a cycle when these symptoms start, it is common for people to blame it on clomid.

    If it is just a "down" feeling from the clomid and not a previous psychological problem than I'm sure you'll be able to deal with it. And I agree with KAEW44 that probably most of the time the real problem is a low test level and the feeling of coming off the steroids that can spark a mild depressive incident. Either way, you should be fine, and you'd probably be better off just smoking/vaporizing some dope for a couple days rather than buying any St. John's Wort, IMO. In fact, I'd even suggest Picamilon and Rhodiola before I'd suggest St. John's Wort...

    the reason why getsides while on clomid is not cuas eteh substance it self but due to the the low test levels and hormone imbalance ur body is goin through while trying to reach homeostasis

    I didnt notice any depression. Dont worry about it until you start taking it and feel depressed (not that you will)

    i have depression/anxiety and I find my medicine make clomid depression not as bad as if I were not on the meds. The thing is during the week where it really hits you emotionally you just have to keep telling yourself that this is only because of the clomid and it will not last to long. When I get the clomid depression I just like to stay home because if I got out I usually am to emotional and not very fun to be around.
