Isn’t your prolactin still quite a bit elevated? Maybe you still need to work on bringing that down.
In your latest tests, did you get Free T & Bio T tested? What about Estradiol?

No, it is now 47 (was 500). NONE of my endos have tested E (tested it myself once, was fine) which is weird. One even told me if SHBG is fine (mine was 24), there is no need to test E. Why would that be? If I had a patient with gyno problems, I would surely test it. I am actually extremely disappointed in the care I have received, I bet e.g. my gynosurgery could have been avoided had I received the drugs I needed in time.
As I am now running on cabergoline and perhaps soon on clomid, I have NO idea what my original natural hormone levels were. There really should be some kind of hormone tests prior to prescribing fin:(
47 is still very high, from what I have read… I was under the impression that for most men, it should be in the single digits (ie, under 10).
For example, read this guy’s story, note his improvements once he got his prolactin under control:

I would suggest finding another endo to work with you on monitoring your prolactin if you plan to get it down, and get E2 and Free T/Bio T checked as well before commencing on Clomid.
As the range is 0-300, I really don’t think prolactin is the problem.
Be warned not to get any gyno surgery done unless you have pretty much recovered. The resulting wounded tissue on your chest will become ultra sensitive to disbalanced estrogen/androgen action. The pain that this can cause over many months you cannot even imagine in your wildest dreams. I have been through that and am still suffering. Without 3 tabs of Nolvadex ed I wouldn’t make it through the day.
