Clomid Prescribed- please advise

Unchanged. No spontaneous erections or erections to visual stimuli. I had to manually do work to get erections going.

I’ve had a clomid cycle on my dresser for about a month now. Been too scared to take it. I was gonna start out at 12.5 mg every other day just to see. My testosterone has fallen below range and my SHBG is through the roof…

disheartening. any weight loss from the clomid? also any experience with arimidex?
@Jaime

No weight loss. I didn’t monitor my weight, but I remember looking a little bit more puffy from maybe fluid retention. I got prescribed arimidex but didn’t take it because I got PFS from another aromatase inhibitor called arimistane. It also inhibits DHT according to some vendors. Basically, I was scared of taking the AI so I decided to low dose clomid to avoid excess E2 and avoid arimidex unless absolutely needed.

My Clomid experience was basically the same as @Jaime, got a little more moody and a tad more agressive, but the effects wore off very quickly. Only took for around 2 weeks. Didn’t make any change to baseline and maybe even made me a tad worse for a while after.

Thanks guys. Im assuming no visual erections for scott h either?

@Jaime why would arimidex cut dht? Isn’t it supposed to cut estrogens, leading to a greater emphasis on dht? What mechanism are you suggesting cuts dht?

Arimidex doesn’t cut DHT as far as I know. The drug I took was arimistane, which apparently cuts DHT according to some vendors. However, some people here have landed with “PFS” due to arimidex. They are @gents93 and @lowe2sucks . Maybe others as well.

I wouldn’t try Clomid… just saying. Have you try Tribulus protocol? You should try the safer ones first i think.

Tribulus only made it worse if anything

Be careful. Clomid can make your condition worse.

No help in visual erections. The only thing that I can honestly say has truly helped me in regards to all symptoms was doing a carnivore diet and working out. You could do a Keto diet as well and probably get the same effects.

I’m going to see dr alan jacobs, i think, instead of dr goldstein. much cheaper, and its here in new york instead of across the country. has anyone been helped by him? any advice?

Exactly. Rest In Peace, friend.

Because of clomid?

Because of arimidex.

what causes post arimidex issues? is it a more known pathway than PFS?

Tried Clomid for several months and it made me worse. I wouldn’t recommend it. It you do use make sure you have your other hormones monitored regularly, especially estrogen.

What was your dosage? And you have any bloodworks to share?
You didn’t improve at all? My E2 is 30 so im kinda scared to try it. @BadLuck

Hi Cooper - It’s been so long since I used clomid I don’t really remember the dose. I seem to remember 25 mg, but just a guess at this point. I would definitely not recommend it. Made me worse in several ways. Gave me some weird eye problems that took a long time (years) to go away. I got optical migraines from it. You can look it up. Get a geometric pattern in the vision that would last about 20 minutes. Similar to a migraine headache without the headache. Would say to avoid it.
