Clomid Use - Fishing for Bill Roberts

Hi. Ive never cycled AAS, currently prepping for some two weekers soon, will post cycles when ready. My question is about clomid. Today i was reading through some old threads, and found one where which a newb (like me) was asking about running clomid to optimize natural test production while not on cycle, and Mr. Roberts was involved in the discussion. I work 12 hr night shifts, and sometimes 3 or four in a row.

I know during these back to back shifts, hormonal levels can be negatively influenced. I sleep normally on my off days (2-10 am). My diet is clean, training is good, and I make it a point to avoid overtraining due to the hormonal environment that my shift may be placing on me.

My question is: could running clomid during back to back night shifts such as these be beneficial in avoiding less than ideal testosterone levels during these periods? If serious about not just training and strength, but general health, perhaps clomid use limited to times of disrupted sleep cycle could negate the negative effects that this odd schedule has on test levels, insulin sensitivity, cholesterol, cortisol, etc, leading to better health and training results in the long run. Of course all other measures, such as diet, rest, etc. play a major role need to be in check as well. If this is a crazy post, I apologise, and thanks in advance for any feedback.

I would assume that the hpta is in a suboptimal state during these occasional time periods due to a disrupted sleep cycle. My thoughts are that clomid could provide a good stimulation for the hpta during this time, like an occasion bridge between periods of normal rest patterns. Perhaps this type of use could positively impact health and recovery in the long run.

I have read a number of articles over the years regarding the use of serms and AI’s for what you are talking about.

As I recall both can potentially lead to a more favorable hormone profile, but I don’t recall the difference being significant enough to make it worthwhile for most people.

I think one or two of those articles were on this site.
