Is this a 4-week PCT cycle (e.g.: 100MG/day the first week, 100MG/day second week, 50 the 3rd and 4th?)
Just trying to understand how to interpret this.
As for the doctor, yes, I am in search for a new one. The ones I had talked to, either don’t want to help (urologist) or are too busy to give appts for few weeks. Need some help …
Thanks for the reply. I got full blood work done which I will be revising with the 3rd doctor I am trying to see. sigh… Most of it is within range except the hormone stuff …
Here is the endocrinology results if anyone is interested:
Yeah, well, you are definitely completely shut down. That LH hurts to look at. You T4 numbers are also low, but T3 is fine. You must feel like crap with that test level. Do a PCT, ASAP.
What kind of doctor can help with this thing? What should I be looking at?
Definitely, the ones I have consulted either don’t know what they are doing, or don’t have the time to see me soon. So far, either a general doctor and a urologist did not help at all. Waiting for a 3rd opinion, but it has been so stressful that I am not sure where to look or do.
For a PCT, I have enough clomid for 100MG/day for two weeks or 50MG for 4 weeks. Hopefully, the 1st doc would be able to at least help refill my Rx, in case I need more.
Confused of what should be the recommended dose as earlier on this post (100MG/day for 2 weeks, then 50) or some external references where they say 100 is too much.
Besides clomid, some PCTs recommend novaldex. Is that something that is commonly used?
For restoring FSH/LH, what is generally use? Will this stuff get back to normal on its own?
Sorry for the basic questions. I am definitely out of my depth here, but just trying to understand what to do and educate myself.
Nolvadex is the preferred PCT drug, but that’s not what you have. Clomid/Nolva both result in pituitary stimulation which means increased production of LH and FSH. The LH is the hormone that signals the testes to produce. HCG is the female version of LH, and will stimulate production like LH, but leave your LH at next to zero. You want to stimulate natural production after shutdown, so stay away from HCG while on PCT.
You are apparently in Florida, and there is a well known telemedicine clinic in Tampa called Defy. If all else fails, talk to them. They are private only, no insurance.
Not to be a dick, but this is why people need to educate themselves before taking gear. Everyone who wants to start a cycle without really, REALLY researching what they’re doing and knows how their body works. If there are people reading this thread who want to start a cycle but not sure what to do, research everything until you actually know what’s going on.
For OP, I wish the best for ya and hope you can find a competent doctor.
Yes, I could not agree with you more. For those out there thinking about doing this, trust but verify and do your homework. I didn’t and I am living the consequences, but one thing is for sure, I’ve learned more about this and the side effects. Surround yourself of multiple people that know what they are doing, use common sense, and DO your homework.
This is funny… Can’t laugh about it just yet cause my f*ing T levels are low and laughter is not there yet, LOL, but hopefully in a couple of months I can go back to this post and laugh.
Don’t worry bro youl get back to where you need to be!
As for the clomid the usual reccomend pct is 100/100/50/50 but as mentioned it can come with some undesirable side effects. Chnaces are if you get them from the above dosing your going to get them from any amount. Some people just don’t respond well to it. If you happen to be one of those people you stop taking it and order some Nolvadex. OR just avoid all that and order the Nolvadex now and use that for pct
