Trying to Regain Fertility

So I've used AAS for 5 yrs now, and am completely shutdown. For 6 months I've been off, and cruising at 300mg of Test weekly with 1mg exemestane daily, and feel great.

Wife and I want to have another child....so obviously need to regain fertility. I haven't tested myself, but she hasn't had a goalie in 3 or 4 years so its safe to say its me. FSH and HMG are quite expensive and at any rate require a prescription, which causes them to be unavailable to me.

I have a few questions if some of you could be so kind as to answer.

1. Does a HCG + clomid/tamoxifen protocol have general success in restoring spermatogenisis, and if so, at what amounts and frequency?

2. Can I even substitute tamoxifen for clomiphene? If not, why not?

3. Can I remain on my current protocol of 300mg Test and 1mg exemestane daily during this protocol?


Thanks in advance for any all help.

Here you go, everything you need to know to get fertile.

That's a good thread, but doesn't address any of my specific questions. FSH and HMG aren't options for me.

If you're going to use clomid. It seems that the best protocol is 12.5 mg daily or every other day. And yes you do have to be off Test.

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.
