Hi Dr,
We are starting the same protocol minus the thyroid med. I was also recommended the 25g, but I have some 27g that I will use.
Look forward to hear how things go, and I will be sure to post my experience also.
That's good news. Having all kinds of problems lately reaching a live person to order some meds.
Dr Calkins is also booked up a month out now.
A victim of their success............
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I was surprised how good the test numbers look. I felt better for the first couple of weeks, but not sure how much that was in my head. Now back to where I started.
What do you make of the LH number? Last time I didn't see that rise.
48yr old male here. Was on clomid over a year ago, but stopped after the benefits quickly faded. After a year break decided to try again. Clomid 15mg ED and Anastrozole .08mg ED. Here are my labs from early March and from May. Thoughts?
March / May...
Just last weekend I was going through customs at the airport and got selected for a search. They briefly question me about my Clomid from Hallandale because the label looked so worn and it's a new bottle! Wish they could spend some $ on decent labels.
Sorry if this has been covered, but this thread is so popular / huge it is tough to search the whole thing ;)
I started Gene's stack (minus the Doxazosin and Cialis) in October and it's been great!
Now I'm looking to add the Doxazosin and Cialis. I don't have a script for either, so is...
I just asked how you were feeling on another post. Yes, started the AI today so too early to tell if I will feel anything different. But, I'm still feeling a lot better than before Clomid.
Nice DLK! How are you feeling and how do the rest of your numbers look?
XYT: My latest total test is at 897......up about 30%. But my E2 and SHBG went up also, so trying to get them down with some Anastrozole. Overall I am feeling better (less fatigue, higher libido, and much less ED)
I've been on 15mg ED for about 8 weeks now. I got a nice bump in Total test, but more importantly feel much better than before therapy.
You should have your E2 checked, even if you have to pay for it yourself. On 15mg ED, my E2 went from 32.8 to 53.4 (8-35). Both tests were Estradiol...
Thyroid results from latest BW. I've learned a lot about BW results over the last few months, but still a novice when it comes to thyroid.
Both these numbers in the normal range, but is that optimal? I was tested because I do have some symptoms that could be related to hypothyroidism.
TSH...
High E2 and SHBG from BW. No real symptoms yet, so I am going to take less than I was prescribed. Like you I am trying to start low. How often are you supposed to take the .5mg capsule?
Is it too late to change your script to .25mg capsules? Mine should be arriving today. How often were you told to dose the .50mg? I am supposed to take .25mg EOD, but I might start out at twice a week.
Thanks for the quick replies!
So what's the main reason people shy away from A!? Threat of lowering estrogen too much? Side effects?
Aslo, any thoughts on my TSH and Triiodothyronine?
Hello all,
Just an update on my Clomid therapy and a question. I’ve been on 15mg Clomid everyday for 6 weeks.
Prior to starting on Clomid, I’ve had low test symptoms for years: fatigue, very slow gains at the gym, difficulty keeping weight down even though I workout regularly and eat...
Sorry Nelson, I am going through Defy.
I'm just going to be off the grid for about a week in Spain with limited WiFi. I did ask Defy to email the results as soon as they get them. I did that for my last BW, it just took them a couple of days to get them to me.
I did hear from LabCorb...
Does anyone have a contact number for LabCorp, where I can talk to a live person? I am unable to check my results online because they haven't validated my identity yet. This is after faxing them my info twice and sending a few emails. I've only gotten one generic email response from them and...
Some people say that it drops your E2 a bit. I was at the higher end of normal. Here is my BW before any Clomid & DIM
Total Test: 596 (240-871)
Free Test was in normal range
Estradiol, sensitive: 32.8 (8.0-35.0)
It will be interesting to see my results next week. I hit the Lab on...
My Doc had the pharmacy mix in 200mg of Diindolylmethane with each pill. So it's one pill that contains 15mg Clomid and 200mg DIM.
When are you having labs done? It will be interesting to see any changes. I am doing my next blood work a little early because I am going on a long vacation. I...
