    Cycling on TRT using clomid

    Im currently taking clomid as my TRT... my total test doubled but my free is still low. We doubled my dose from 25mg to 50mg and im going to get blood work done in may and see if my free test improved any. Assuming my free test increases on clomid and we get everything dialed in I would like to do a cycle eventually (only after I get my trt dialed in of course) My question is how do I go about doing this? stop clomid the day I start my cycle and then just jump back on it when im done? And could another cycle potentially damage my testicles ability to produce testosterone with the clomid therapy making me primary hypogonadle? There are plenty of threads on blasting and cruising but im not sure of the best way to do this when using clomid for trt.

    Well, continuing the clomid on cycle is not worth it as it will be useless due to elevated test and its feedback mechanism. A thought would be to stop the clomid about 2 weeks into the cycle (assuming long ester) and then restart it when the cycle is over. Whenever you cycle there's always a risk involved. PCT is normally relatively successful but it's still a crap shoot. Be sure to add HCG during your cycle.

    Yes I will use HCG for sure.. should I do the 6 weeks of tamox with my clomid or should I not even bother?

    Well they work synergistically but in this situation I'm not sure it's needed as you're not overstimulating like in pct and then coming off serms, you're staying on. That said, a few weeks of nolva could never hurt. I'd probably do 4 weeks if it were me and then ride it out with clomid.

    ok cool. If my blood work comes back good in May I might start a cycle this summer. Or possibly wait until next year and just let my trt do its thing for a bit and try to make some gains off of that.

    If you're just getting optimized with TRT I'd ride it out. You can make great gains with restored hormone levels if your diet and training are on point.

    I eat very well and train pretty hard... My free test was borderline lowif I get that to the higher end of the scale will it really make a night and day difference in the gym/my physique? Because it's been about six weeks since I increased my Clomid dose and I have yet to see/feel any changes.

    It will make a difference. Not the same as cycle levels but yes it definitely helps. Six weeks is really not much time to gauge progress YB.
