do serms kill libido, if so why do they do this?

[sam80]

I've read many reports of serms killing libido, I thought they were supposed to increase testosterone?

 

[Milton]

where did you read these reports? where they reports or logs?

 

[sam80]

I just googled serms killing libido and many guys on different report this. It has actually happened to me even when all labs were good.

 

[Megatron28]

It depends how they are begin used and which SERMs. What did you use and how?

 

[sam80]

I used 100mg clomid week 1
50mg clomid week 2-4
40mg nolva week 1-2
20mg nolva week 2-4

My testosterone is still low at 190 ng/dl though it had risen to 600's during pct.

 

[Milton]

can you post your blood work?

 

[Megatron28]

I used 100mg clomid week 1
50mg clomid week 2-4
40mg nolva week 1-2
20mg nolva week 2-4

My testosterone is still low at 190 ng/dl though it had risen to 600's during pct.

So do you think the SERMs killed your libido or do you think perhaps that coming off cycle and having a failed restart killed your libido?

 

[sam80]

I did 3 12 week cycles of test enanthate only at 500mg. It happened 2 weeks after my last shot but pct made it worse. My bloods are

Total T 190 ng/dl (241 - 827)
Estradiol 49 pg/mL (0 - 52)
SHBG 55.6 ug/dL (12 - 48)
LH 4,26 mUI/mL (1,5 - 9,3)
FSH 3,58 mUI/mL (1,4 - 18,1)

What were precycle bloods

You are Hypogonadal. That is why your libido sucks. Run PCT again -- perhaps with hcg-mono in the beginning for a month or two. Or get on TRT. You body isn't making enough testosterone on its own.


Just wondering, did you run PCT between each of the cycles or were you on cycle for 36+ weeks?

How old are you?

 

[halfwit]

TT of 190 with an LH of 4.26?

Sounds like I too would like to know what those pre-cycle bloods looked like.

 

[sam80]

The cycles were back to back with pct inbetween. I never checked pre cycle bloods but yes no time off after pct. Basically a 36 week cycle. I'm 36.

 

[carverelli]

Welcome to trt and lifelong pins bro. It's so important to get bloods done to even know if you're recovered. But I guess that brigde has been crossed, destroyed, and relandscaped. Now it's hard to tell there was ever a bridge even there in the first place

Seems like a poor decision on your part. I hope you are able to recover, but you may have sentenced yourself to TRT for the rest of your life.

 

[sam80]

Will 200mg test (since my shbg is so high) and 12.5mg aromasin fix it?

Id run pct like Megatron suggested and keep us updated please.

I'm going to do this pct:

Nolva
20/20/10/10/10/10/10/10
Clomid
25/25/25/25/25/25

Do you think I should use an AI?

 

[dr. franknstein]

it can, but your case is different.
some estradiol is required for libido.
