[QUOTE="Esq, post: 215094, member: 15250"] How does enclomiphene monotherapy compare with clomiphene monotherapy? I was about to type up my own experience with clomiphene monotherapy when I noticed that [I][B]en[/B][/I]clomiphene was being discussed. I remember vaguely enclomiphene being discussed on here back when I was on clomiphene (2017), but my recollection is that it was very new at that time. To OP's question, I started TRT in late 2017 at age 36. My levels weren't terrible (total T of 550 and free T of 15), but I felt terrible and and nothing else helped, including lifestyle changes, being treated for sleep apnea, and clomiphene monotherapy. It has changed my life for the better without a doubt. I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever, but luckily I was able to get my hormone levels balanced pretty quickly and my regimen has stayed relatively consistent over the years for the most part. I also haven't (yet) experienced any of the more serious side effects like elevated hematocrit, elevated blood pressure, hair loss, etc. It also has done wonders for my libido, as it has for my wife (also a Defy patient). I do recommend that you try to rule everything else out before taking the plunge. At my age and with my levels, Dr. Saya was clear with me that it was a last resort. He tried a lot of things, including the aforementioned clomiphene, cortisol testing (multiple times), and other less invasive options. We worked together for almost a full year before I started TRT. I don't see it listed in your posts, but if you suffer from fatigue or tiredness issues I recommend that you consider being tested for sleep apnea. That also can cause sexual dysfunction and libido issues. It so frequently goes undiagnosed, especially in people who are otherwise healthy. I'm lean, fairly muscular, and young, and still suffer from it, as does my very fit 39 year-old wife. It is not the fat-old-man's disease many perceive it to be. [/QUOTE]
