    Stopped Clomid Then Testicles Shrunk

    UPDATE I have not had a chance to discuss with my doc yet, but I got my labs back and wanted to share because I was surprised. It appears my estradiol is actually on the low end instead of being up like I had thought due to the abrupt stoppage of Clomid. I see my doc in the morning and will...

    Are guys that do well on low dose clomid unicorns...or do they really exist?

    Is it possible that some other group had an interest in Androxal never becoming legal, like, say the manufacturers of testosterone cypionate? Is it possible any of those companies could influence the FDA?

    40 and Considering TRT

    Thank you for all the responses. I am getting blood work drawn this week and have a follow up with my Endo next week to discuss the next step. The Clomid definitely was not for me. The blood work showed the desired rise in total and free T, but the other effects negated any benefit of that...

    40 and Considering TRT

    I turned 40 last year. I have been borderline low for at least 3 years, maybe longer but that was the first time I had levels checked. Over these past 3 years my total T has been between 300 and 400, which usually prompted the physician to tell me I was normal. My body said otherwise though...

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
