I was wondering exactly what the science/theory is behind that initial high dosage of 300mg (6 x 50mg tabs) on the 1st day of PCT??? There is no ****ing theory. Some idiot made it up and caused a **** load of users to experience side effects (vision, emotional) then attribute Clomid to all the sides...Some studies I've seen give an initial dose of 100-150mg/ED for the first few days. Not 300mg day 1! Dont do it.
(I suspect it's either to get ones plasma levels of Clomid up pronto and/or to shock/'jump start' the HTPA back into action.)
Anyway, the main reason I'm asking is that I have 48 x 50mg tabs at my disposal for PCT (Along with plenty of Nolvadex), and I'm wondering whether it'd be better to take the initial high 300mg dose as illustrated above, or to just go with 100mg from day one, thus allowing me to run the Clomid therapy for an additional 4 days? Hope this makes sense. I think I answered that above!
Any feedback/advice appreciated!
Cheers y'all!
