Acne as sign of recovery on clomid?

[meathead320]

Background info, age 30, years cycling 8, been cruising on a TRT script a long time, but I do occasionally take breaks to keep the pilot light on, and for some reason I just feel good being off all together for a while, especially time when not taking Bbing lifestyle real seriously.

I was on for about 4 months since my last break, and been off for about two weeks and on clomid I’m also shooting loads like Peter North, and I also have a decent case of facial acne.

Clomid is dosed at 35mg daily. I plan to use it another two weeks, but if the acne is a sign of full recovery it would be cool to stop now, since clomid has its own sides.

From what I understand it is fluctuations in testosterone levels that cause this, at least in the people who get acne from testosterone, depending weather you got it during puberty or not.

Is that why I’m getting acne now? As in a sign of good HPTA restoration?

OR can clomid directly cause acne?

Clomid can directly cause acne...

But it could also be a side effect of changing Test levels.

Get BW done and go from there.

Are you waking with an erection? Thats usually a good sign on endogenous testosterone.

Not waking with erections at the moment yet, figure since clomid as you say can directly cause acne I will stick with the 35mg ED clomid another two weeks.

I hope that dose is not too low, the reason I don't use a higher dose is that I've read a number of studies on clomid testosterone and sperm (they had more to do with fertility) and quite a few guys only on 25mg ED had testosterone levels that went supra-physiologic.

My reasoning is that once the E2 receptors in the Hypothalamus are blocked by the Clomid, they are saturated and more would not be needed. I see all sorts of PCTs with 100mg Clomid, and 50mg Nolva daily, and I think that would be like pouring a gallon of water into a small cup, with the extra just spilling out and causing more sides. - Your thoughts on that? I certainly have enough of both on hand that I could bump up the dose and add in the nolva if there is a good reason more would be better that I am not aware of.

Either way, I will get BW done about 30 days after complete pct. I like to wait 30 days, as often all sorts of things are still not normal, Testosterone can be higher than it will be later on, E2 higher or lower etc... I call it 30 days to see where I'm at after the dust has settled.

More good news, woke up with a hardon last night! That's not directly caused by the clomid is it?

So running clomid only works for you as a PCT? I wondered myself if running nolva and clomid together was over kill resulting in its own problems.
