    Clomid for TRT

    I seen a specialist recently to check my test levels. I was experiencing low libido, ED, fatigue, depression and anxiety. My blood work came back within a normal range. The specialist did say I was low in testosterone . These were my scoresÂ…

    Free test 365 pmol /L
    Test 17 nmol/L

    Doc gave me the option to take 160mg of test, used a nasal spray or go on clomid. I opted to go on clomid hoping that it can boost my levels while maintaining a high sperm count.

    My question is has anyone had experience using clomid for TRT? Is there a chance that it can restore my levels to a higher level after IÂ’m done taking it? Thanks

    I used clomid for almost 3 years as HRT. The first 90 days were cool, then the zuclomiphene kicked in. And I felt bleah.

    If you are really interested in pursuing SERM based HRT, do not use clomid, use enclomiphene instead.

    Be advised that you will likely be disappointed in SERM therapy compared to Testosterone, either in cream or injection form.

    Thanks for the info, I’m thinking I’ll end up going on test but before I do I’m going to see if I can naturally get try levels up. Just don’t like the idea of having to depend on injections for the rest of my life.

    it is my opinion that the only downside to TRT is that it costs money. it is inevitable that as we get older our test production goes down, especially if we have done AAS in the past. TRT is basically the fountain of youth, plus if you blast gear while on it youl keep most if not all of your gains.

    regarding clomid for HRT, i dont see how that would be very effective. running HCG would make more sense.

    Just seeing this, somehow.

    Clomid IS very much effective for treating secondary hypogonadism. Well, at least as long as we define "treating" as simply raising test, dht, and estrogen. The numbers simply don't translate into feel, likely because of the zuclomiphene molecule.

    HCG solo is only advisable short term as it is "eventually suppressive". That is, it starts a dwindling feedback loop, sort of a "Mister Brownstone" effect. <-- GnR fans know what I'm talking about.

    In more straight forward terms, hcg imitates LH, which in turn encourages the production of testosterone . The body sees this increased production and signals for LESS LH production. So, you inject more HCG, only for the body to tune down production even more. The body wants to keep things where they are, and adjusts to ensure it does. Thus, HCG is eventually suppressive and in fact a dead end as solo TRT.
