All,
This is my first post,I am 30yrs old and i was diagnosed with male factor infertility,i have a normal sperm count but very low motility.
My urologist may 2014 performed the tests and the testosterone was 330 and he said its in normal range and no further treatment was required.
Since 2012 i have 40 extra pounds in my abdomen due to SNRI pristiq i took for 6 months.Had lost 20 pounds with intense exercise but gained all back during winter.
I then went to a weight loss clinic in april 2015 and they retested and the testosterone this time was 190.
TSH and T4 were normal but T3 was very high.He said he never saw that high T3.
But since i didnt show symptoms he didnt treat me.
The DR prescribed HCG shots 1000iu 4 times per week.
He prescribed arimidex 0.25mg once a week and metformin daily.
Seromelin acetate daily at bed time,i think 20 units.
I have read that this dosage is high and can cause further fertility problems.
It has been 2 weeks,the first few week my sperm volume improved and had high libido.
I also had weight loss.
The second week gained back the weight,libido became normal and sperm felt same as before.
Is my dosage too high?
I read that 500iu is the normal accepted dosage.
As per the compunding pharmacy pharmacist this doctor is very smart.
Guys please help!
