I am a 50yo.  Started seeking treatment about 18 months for Low T symptoms. Initial rounds of blood work showed borderline Low-T around 320-350.  Doctor put me on 50mg Clomid monotherapy 3xWeek.  Then took about 6 months of wild fluctuations of Estrogen, Thyroid levels (I am hypothyroid), and related levels to get under control.  Clomid has some known negative Thyroid  effects.  Added a dose of AI 3xWeek and now Estrogen levels in good range and Thyroid has stabilized.  Net result was my testosterone levels now consistently around 770.  I feel better, but not "great".  Libido is better, but not great.  Overall mood is a much better on most days.  Just don't have the energy and drive I expected if my T levels came up.  Doctor suggested I now switch to HCG monotherapy of 250IU 6 of 7 days per week for possible better results related to energy, weight loss, libido, etc.

Question: Has anyone experienced using both Clomid and HCG monotherapy at different times?  If so, be interested in your experiences and your personal comparison of both therapies.

Feel like I am crazy switching off something that is "working" to an unknown.  But I guess if the HCG produces worse results over next 8 weeks, I can always switch back.

Thanks
