Please accept my apologies if this has already "been done to death" but I was just wondering what you guys made of this...

Cheers gents.

Yes, this has been studied several times and proven to restart younger hypogonadal men. The 2 most successful protocols were 25 and 50 mg administered monday, wednesday and friday for 3 to 4 months.
 
I am on week 6 of 25mg eod. I have had great results and no side effects. For the next six weeks I will taper down to once a week. Whether it holds or not is another story.
 
hmm my 8 week pct only left me with a 400 test level after 16 weeks. After pct it was over 1000 but continually dropped.
Maybe if I would have run clomid for 12-16 weeks it would make a difference.HMM
 
I was thinking more for young men that are hypogonadal (my situation) as a long term alernative to TRT! Easier to father children. Cheap. As I imagine that with a lot of hypogonadal young men once they stop taking clomid their T levels drop back down to hypogonadal levels!

off course they fall again. Some people's may not fall totally flat though.
Some guys might stay 100 ng/dl better than they were before going on clomid....but only time and the appropriate blood tests would tell.
 
This is a good option for some for sure. It is becoming more widely accepted since a published study in Brazilian Journal of Endocrinology.

Steroid induced Hypogonadism is much more complex. I'm more inclined to believe younger Hypogonadal men that have never administered exogenous hormones might very well be better at "restarting" their HPTA than those who have messed with their biochemistry.

No, it's not more complex. In fact, NON steroid induced hypogonadism is extremely complex and much much much more complicated and difficult to treat.
