[QUOTE="aneuman, post: 250798, member: 43264"] First, congrats on your restart! Two things I can get from this, first, your Leydig cells appear to be responding to HCG and are producing testosterone.NSecond, Your pituitary/hypothalamus seem to be waking up with Clomid. Based on my particular experience, your LH should continue to go up in the following months. Some fertility doctors say that treatment with clomid (alone) requires at least 6 months Usually hormones require quite some time to find balance, about 3 monghs or so, sometimes more, and making changes in the middle will lead you make the wrong adjustments. Was this protocol ordered by a professional or is it something you’re trying on your own? 1500 IU of HCG EOD seems a bit high but not unheard of for fertility reasons. Consider that your Leydig cells are been pushed to produced testosterone by HCG, while simultaneously you have awaken your pituitary produce LH, that means that your testicles might be soon overstimulated by concurrently having HCG and LH hitting them. According to some theories on this forum, that could lead to desensitization of the Leydig cells, which could result in decreased testosterone, in the long run. Whether this is true or not I do not know, but the explanation sounds like it could possible. On the other hand, SHBG is a bit high and seems to be outside normal parameters which tend to be around 77 nmol/L, mostly in old males. I do not have an advise for you other than see a doctor, and see whether he or she thinks this is a concern. In my experience, HCG tends to increase SHBG. when I was using 600 IU 3/week my SHBG went up to 68; normal values for me are around 40. Currently I’m using 250 IU 3/week + Enclomiphene citrate and SHBG is at 58. Ultimately, there’re a lot of feedback mechanisms, some of them understood better than others that cause SHBG to go up more in some people higher than others, whether this is good or bad I don’t know. In any case, I’m glad that your restart is working, just make sure you don’t overdo it and end up causing more harm than good. In a couple of months probably you and your wife can have your baby and everything will be worth its while. One question for you though, how are you feeling with this protocol? Any side effects?
