My husband has been on TRT for 1.5 years. We decided we want to try for a baby. He started taking 250units of HCG 2x week to get to regain sperm count. My question is will this help and if so, how long will it take? He was also RX'd clomid to take alongside the HCG. Is this a good idea?
 
Did I understand you to write that your husband is taking Clomid while simultaneously taking exogenous testosterone? If so, that is a mistake. They work at cross purposes with one another - to the extent they work with one another at all. It's one or the other, never both.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

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