    Clomid can cause irreversable eyesight problems?

    Ouch! just read this. Certainly has me worried

    Can anyone comment on what he said?

    But Clomid seems to also affect the eyesight. Long-term clomid therapy causes irreversible changes in eyesight3 in users. Irreversible. For me that alone is reason enough to prefer Nolvadex.

    It's a plain fact that there is a high correlation between gains and side-effects. Either you go for maximum gains and tolerate the side-effects, or you reduce the side-effects, and with it the gains. That's life, nothing is free.

    FROM THAT POST IT'S SAYING THAT CLOMID IS BETTER FOR KEEPING GAINS BUT IT HAS MORE SIDE EFFECTS, AND NOLVA IS ALRIGHT FOR KEEPING GAINS BUT LESS SIDE EFFECTS

    Long term meaning more then 4 weeks of clomid. 4 weeks or less is fine and doesnt cause damage. Nolva does not trigger recovery as well as clomid. Clomid is about 80% more effective at recovery.

    Would this be fine then for my pct.....? Im through Week One now, about to begin Week Two. Clomid usage for 4 weeks is what i am planning. should i cut it down to three weeks?

    Day 1: 150 mg clomid
    Week 1 and 2 (Day 2-14): 100 mg clomid
    Week 3 and 4: 50 mg clomid, 20 mg nolvadex

    all are ED.

    More like Day 1 50mg, weeks 1 & 2 25mg, week 3 12.5mg. Remember that clomid is very powerful! Side effects can be largely avoided if dosage is kept low.

    Granted, he makes a strong case for Nova over Clom but with regards to eyesight…

    Although the author seems quite knowledgeable, and cited references for hormonal effects and cardiovascular risk, his articulation was clumsy and he failed to cite although claiming to reference your main interest namely long-term irreversible eyesight problems.

    Notice here how he depicts the “3”, signaling the aforementioned reference is the third one below “…irreversible changes in eyesight3 in users.” Well upon further review the only references provided are:
    1 Vermeulen A., Comhaire F., Hormonal effects of an anti-estrogen, tamoxifen , in normal and oligospermic men, Fertil. Ster. 29 (1978) 320-27
    2 Bruning PF, Bronfer JMG, Hart AAM, Jong-Bakker M, tamoxifen, serum lipoproteins and cardiovascular risk, Br. J. Cancer 1988 Oct, 58 (4) 497-9
    As a researcher I wouldn’t throw my Clomid out just yet. If this concerns you investigate it for yourself. Go online and search medical journals for present are archived abstracts with the keywords “long-term, Clomid & eyesight”. If you do find valid studies read them thoroughly for details. And be sure to share your results with AR regardless of your findings (positive or negative). Access this thread and let the gang know.

    Myself I only do 100 mg clomid day one and 50 mg for 9 more days and I am FULLY recovered. There are also substantially less vision and emotional problems when doing lower doses. The manufacturer of clomid seems to think anything over 50 mg is needless even in men for PCT.

    I dun know if i could believe what this bloke has to say, if clomid caused eye sight problems don't you think people would have discussed the issue a bit more? Also this Big Cat guy i've read articles of from him b4 about gear and i can't really take his advice because if you see photo's of him he has never done a cycle b4.
