I've seen this study before as well. It sucks that their test group is only one guy, but hopefully it'll inspire more studies eventually.

Good stuff... they just need a much larger sample. That said... I am going to believe it anyway... God knows my testes love Clomid and it saves my ass. Hail Clomid!
