9 months into Clomiphene treatment for low test

Ain't that weird - i've been on regular clomid, 12.5mg three times a week, and my libido / sexual function is great. It's all the other potential positives i don't get. So i'm fatigued, achy joints, low general mood etc, etc, but sexually just fine.

Thinking about trying Clomid for libido

I find this hard to believe as it's well documented that proviron is supressive (at the testicles, not lh / fsh), and there are many online accounts of people being shut down from taking sarms (even ostarine). I'd love it if it were true as i used to take proviron (along with low dose clomid)...

TRT isn't forever? Natural T came back? Lab results suggestions please

Ok thanks, that's very interesting. I bought one off Amazon months ago, just haven't got around to moulding it yet. The wife says i still snore occasionally though, so i think it's time i started using it.

TRT isn't forever? Natural T came back? Lab results suggestions please

That's interesting about the mouthpiece - is it one of those you mould yourself with boiling water, like a gumshield? I bought one a few months back, but haven't got around to moulding / using it yet. If that's what you're using, has it completely stopped your snoring?

Pregnenolone and boron as alternatives to TRT?

Well you're probably fairly suppressed hpta wise now you're on trt. If you really wanted to try an alternative like you said, i think it would make more sense to at least try using a serm med like clomid, not just drop your injections and take pregnenolone. All this depends on why you had to go...

My experience as a Clomid Unicorn

Thanks for the detailed reply. From what i've read, you wouldn't be the first person who didn't find trt was the magic bullet they were hoping for. Mind you i think in a lot of cases it's more down to the protocol used than trt itself that's the problem. Maybe in your case it was, like you...

My experience as a Clomid Unicorn

When your test was 295, were you overweight? Are you in better shape now? Just trying to work out what's different that would cause your natural levels to be so much higher now?

ACE and ARB blood pressure meds (i.e losartan) and coronavirus concern

I'm mostly concerned about the vitamin d issue - there seems to be two completely opposing opinions on this, one that it helps protect, the other that it makes things worse. I always take d3 anyhow, but i bought my elderly parents some 5000iu pills last week, and now i'm wondering if i did the...

Thinking about trying Clomid for libido

Ok, so i don't think this was the article i originally read, but it mentions how mesterolone may lower total test. I'll keep looking: JPMA - Journal Of Pakistan Medical Association "Gonadotropins were not supressed by mesterolone treatment. The fall of total testosterone may be due to...

Wonderings Journey

Proviron, deprenyl, wellbutrin. Deprenyl increases my libido, like anything needs cycling though. For the erections, maybe yohimbine?

Thinking about trying Clomid for libido

From my own experiences with both low dose clomid and proviron, i believe that proviron WILL cause some amount of suppression if not straight away then eventually. My test levels circa 2012, prior to using clomid, averaged in the low 300's. On clomid, low 600's (note - i only had the one...
