Been on TRT now for 3 years or so. Was 29 when started at that time my total was in the 170 range give or take. No tumor on the pituitary, no variocele. Problem is I don't know if I am primary or secondary hypogonadism, as I wanted tested for LH or FSH tell I had been on T for while.
My protocol is 100mg every 6 days, which puts my total T in the 600 range. Which I feel pretty good with that. I have the ability to go up to 200mg e6d if I wished and have experimented with doing 120 and 150mg e6d for a month or two at a time, and really haven't noticed a difference, I don't know what my T count was as I get blood tested once a year and during that blood test I don't want it sky rocket and get yanked.
I go the VA for this and they are pretty good. Doc is a URO and seems knowledgeable. He's not open to writing scripts left and right, but is open to doing something's. He did give me HCG when my sperm count was low to get the wife pregnant and that worked. And did offer clomid instead.
My pickle is this, after 3 years of T to be frank Im just tired of having keep all the junk around and inject weekly. Like I said over all I do feel pretty good, but there are times where I do feel up and down and don't know why. And I also have a feeling because of T im hanging onto more weight than I desire.
I know my doctor will give me clomid, but my fear is success rate. And the fact if clomid brings my t level say 350 the doc will say your above range, you don't need but I feel like crap.
Now my other option is which was an option when trying to get wife pregnant. Would be to tell him im trying to get wife pregnant again, which he will then take me off of T and go on clomid which I think he said for 60 days minimum cant remember the max that he said. I think this might be the best option as it will give me an opportunity to go try the clomid and if its works, good bye T. If not hes not going to test my T and I can go back on it.
Thoughts
whats a standard protocol for clomid.
