Hey all - first up, sorry if this has been covered already, but I couldn't find the information I was looking for.
I've been on TRT for about 6 years now, started due to diagnosis of secondary hypogonadism - total T was around 200. I currently take 140mg/week test cyp, split into 2 bi-weekly doses, with 250IU of HCG once a week (my balls ache if I don't take it), and 0.25mg arimidex every 3 days. Feel good, total T is around 1000, bloodwork fine, no issues with my protocol.
I'm getting towards a time of life when I want to think about kids however. Almost certainly, my fertility is non-existent right now (I haven't been checked, I will be, but probably a fair assumption).
I'll need to come off TRT and try to get my sperm production going again - may I please ask what is the latest information on the protocol for doing this?
I've seen HMG mentioned, as well as direct FSH anologs. Some people mention clomid, others not. In truth though, I've no real idea on what quantities of what things to take, and for how long, before getting fertility checked to see if it has worked, and what the chances of success are.
Many thanks for any help
