I suppose I'll just assume one must pay to play, on way or the other. Thanks very much for the response.

@Nelson Vergel not sure if posted in the wrong place, but I saw your blurb at the bottom of your posts.

Been a while, but some news... The two miscarriages we had last year were very frustrating, specially for my wife. Consequently, we decided to just take a break from 'trying'. At some point around Jan 1st 2021, I also decided to stop taking clomid. It had been approx 14 months of consistent...

Would adding exogenous r-FSH shut down the HPTA? I have searched for this question in the forums and online. Have not found much, but I do not think that it would. My understanding is that hcg does. My LH is in a good spot and I was thinking of perhaps adding some FSH alone.

I had seen a post a while back wherein someone was explaining the exact mechanism by which libido in men is regulated (ie exactly what is happening in the body when you are feeling froggy). I thought I had put it on my 'watch' list, but I cannot seem to find it. Not saying it was totally...

I know I have ordered one before on discounted labs, but it has been a while and now they are working with quest. Cannot find on website, is discounted labs no longer offering semen analysis? Thanks, Dom

Unfortunately, pregnancy referenced above ended in miscarriage. As did another one over the last couple days. It is hard not to wonder whether or not it is the quality of my swimmers. We are doing some in-depth testing shortly, will update here if any excel-relevant facts come to light...

Thanks, man. We are excited. Good luck to you with that IVF - I understand it is quite a process. It amazes me what we're able to do these days. Furthest we ever got was an IUI (turned out my wife was the one with the fertility issues). It's nice to know some get back on TRT w/HCG and maintain...

Quick update: I have done at home semen analysis this whole time, with some details not given in result. They just tell you whether or not you are above a certain threshold of motile sperm and you can review a little video of your swimmers. I got a little lazy with the clomid at one point and...

Hey man, sorry to hear about the miscarriage. That can be a rough time for sure. As far as I recall, if you want to go the FSH/HMG route, FSH in concert with HCG is the way to go. The half-life of actual LH present in HMG is too short (below an hour) while the LH analog in HCG is over a day...

Still on the clomid @ 12.5mg EOD and still feeling decent. I have probably missed a day here and there (so probably a couple of two day gaps in there). The main difference I have noticed is that my workouts do not have the same intensity and gym progress seems to be taking longer. Pump not as...

Took an at home 'YO' sperm test kit on 12/10. The results came back '>6mil motile sperm per ml'. There did not seem to be a ton of sperm in there, though I apparently crossed some threshhold. I am now hoping to increase count over the coming weeks. I was only on day 64 at time of sperm analysis...

Yesterday was 4 weeks of ~12.5mg EOD for me (started right after 2.5 weeks of hcg). I have not felt noticeably bad. I know that is not the most glowing review, but it is great compared to my first experience with clomid, basically felt like a non-sexual entity. I am going to have test measured...

Update: My last injection of HCG was on 11/5. I had planned originally to do 2 weeks, but some of the effects seemed nice so I went until I finished the entire bottle. In the back of my mind I was dreading making the switch to clomid as well. I was doing 500 iu daily, with a couple of days...

Do you mind sharing your cost/source of FSH? I understand if you'd rather not...
