Experience with Clomid

NoMoreMrNiceJay · 2022-12-12T18:21:08+00:00

This probably isn’t the right subreddit for this question but I’ll answer anyway. r/testosterone is a better sub for this kind of thing.

Clomid is fucking poison. It scares me almost as much as insulin and diuretics. I’ll never touch this shit and I’ve probably tried every other PED that you have ever heard of.

There is evidence that Clomid is neurotoxic to the optical nerve. It can cause vision problems that are permanent by the time you notice them. I saw a Reddit post years back (maybe in r/steroids) where a guy started taking Clomid and got eye pain so bad he was considering suicide. It didn’t go away when he stopped taking it.

See above link. It isn’t just anecdotes.

On top of that, I don’t like the whole theory of it. Clomid is theorized to work as a treatment for secondary hypogonadism. Hopefully your doctor has looked at your gonadotropin levels (LH and FSH) and diagnosed you as such. It tricks your body into thinking your estrogen levels are low (testosterone converts into estrogen) so that your pituitary gland produces more gonadotropins that tell your balls to start making more testosterone. The whole process is so much more toxic and complicated that just injecting testosterone to treat the problem directly.

From a personal standpoint I have taken a similar drug (SERM) to clomid called tamoxifen (nolva). I hated it. It fucked with my mood worse than tren and had me fantasizing about suicide. Never taking that crap again. I’ve seen other anecdotal evidence in r/steroids sharing similar stories.

If you’re in the US just go to a men’s clinic or find a friendly doctor that is willing to prescribe test. It’s so fucking easy here. My levels were 540 (normal range of 300-1000) when I was prescribed 200 mg a week of test cyp. I’ve since talked my doctor into increasing to 250 a week. Shop around and you’ll find someone that will write a script for you.

Once you hop on I do recommend getting regular bloodwork. Every 3 months. You want a complete blood count, hormone panel, and metabolic panel. Test can fuck with your blood a good bit. Make sure you get tested before you start taking it as well so you have an accurate baseline.

One final thing. I have fucked with my test levels a lot. I’ve gotten it under 200 and over 10,000. It doesn’t affect my libido or erections much. Once I bought some fake gear online. My test level was in the 180s. Still got rock hard. Still wanted to fuck all the time. In fact, it’s when my test levels get really high and my estrogen control gets lax that I get slightly less hard erections. I’m telling you this so you know that test might not be the magic bullet.

And a final final note, if you’re tired of dealing with doctors and just want to see if test fixes your problem, it’s not that hard to find it online. I’m not going to share any links or anything here, but a little googling and you can get what you need.

Clomid is garbage and will complicate things. Get on TRT, but start lifting now. I have nothing else to add since Im on TRT.

It is very common for guys to get better lab numbers on clomid but to actually not feel any better or be able to perform better. There's a reason why men who do well on clomid are called unicorns

Think you would be better on any of the test, steriod, trt subs but sure.

This post without bloodwork is kinda pointless.

If you want TrT enough and ego aside, believe it would make a dramatic difference in your quality of life etc etc. Then you put yourself on TRT if the Dr won't prescribe it.

ED can be mental, physical or both. If you can get it going with porn, you can get it going without. I recommend you stop watching porn full stop (don't let some random guy on the screen cuck you.)

Seeing Sbills' post, your squat is near to your bench along with the disclaimer not to skip legs... is this because you have been skipping them.

These numbers after 3 yrs are pretty poor even if you started with the bar for each exercise. E.g. of you started with 45lb DL and progressed at 2.5lbs a week after 3 years you should be hitting 400+. I recommend you look at your training and dial it in.

I skipped much of your post, my concentration was not high enough to read all this and I myself am on trt so go figure.

And finally, you are a giant phaggot. Maybe that's why your test is low. Your body doesn't need it since it knows your a lil bitch.

193 lbs, 6'2

Bp 170 3x5

Op 132 3x5S

Squat 170 3x5

Dl 285 1x5

Maybe try actually fucking lifting something heavy instead of being a weak ass cunt looking for a quick drug fix from Big Daddy Pharma.

Pussy.

I will add more --- Reduce artificial Light at Night --- Sun exposure -- Cold Shower everyday before sleep and after Waking up --- Don't put your laptopl on your lap and try to reduce cell phone uses and place them in any place exept in your pocket -- Studies related to radio activity affects balls .

The Following is Tim Ferris Approach to trippling His T .

PROTOCOL #1: LONG-TERM AND SUSTAINED

Fermented cod liver oil + vitamin-rich butter fat—2 capsules upon waking and before bed .

Vitamin D3—3,000–5,000 IU upon waking and before bed (6,000–10,000 IU per day), until you reach blood levels of 55 ng/mL.

Short ice baths and/or cold showers—10 minutes each, upon waking and right before bed

Brazil nuts—3 nuts upon waking, 3 nuts before bed .

PROTOCOL #2: SHORT-TERM AND FUN “NITRO BOOST”

20–24 Hours Prior to Sex

Eat at least 800 milligrams of cholesterol (example: four or more large whole eggs or egg yolks) within three hours of bedtime, the night before you want to have incredible sex. Why before bed? Testosterone is derived from cholesterol, which is primarily produced at night during sleep (between midnight and 4:00–6:00 A.M.).

Four Hours Prior to Sex

4 Brazil nuts

20 raw almonds

2 capsules of the above-mentioned fermented cod/butter

combination

Look up Jay Campbell he has a book on hormone optimization that will tell you everything you need to know and what to avoid. I followed it and have been really happy with my results. He is also on YouTube so you can get a lot from just watching that.

First you need to go to a clinic that specializes in TRT. Because normal Endo won’t prescribe u less your really low. Then you should spend a couple months doing your research. Save you a little time

Don’t just test your testosterone, get full blood work panel. Good docs will insist on this before prescribing. Jays book as a chapter on how to tell if you have a good doc.

Start with just Testosterone and build it up slowly

Avoid AI drugs at all costs (estrogen suppressant).

You want to inject because it’s by far the best, avoid creams, pills or pellets.

You want to inject as many times as possible per week. I found that 3 small doses is far better than once per week. Anyplace that says they only do it once per month and have to go them for the injections is crap. Find another doctor.

Testosterone is very cheap so you should just pick it up yourself and not get it shipped to you. Most clinics push you to get it all shipped and charge you an arm and a leg. With GoodRX I pay about $50 for 90 days supply and $8 for months worth of syringes. Then pay a flat 150 per month to the clinic for quarterly testing and follow ups.

Jays book will tell you what time you should get and optimum injection method.
