Enclomiphene Side Effects. Continue with PCT or Return to TRT?

Hey guys, as some of you know I have pssd from an antidepressant and I’ve been like this for two years. I went down the trt rabbit hole because when trying to find things wrong the dr saw my test was hovering around 300. I’ve been on injections for about a year and a half. My hair had started getting really thin and I felt like I had gone flat with the trt protocol so I had decided to try to get off and see how i felt off everything. The dr gave me 25mg enclomiphene to take for six weeks. I’m on day 8 with the enclomiphene and it has been horrible. My penis is numb, when flaccid I have horrible shrinkage and I have zero libido. Number one is this normal on pct? If so, when would this start improving? Secondly, I am worried with these side effects that I was better off on the test. Should I just pickup where I left off with injections? Can I just start right back or would I need to wait for the enclomiphene to get out of my system? Just really need some help.

I mentioned this in another thread but clomiphene killed my dick after a few days… felt like it was dead… shriveled up pitiful looking thing… lol… I stopped taking it and a few days later it started waking up…

Yeah I saw you post that. I guess the question is do I stop it then 8 days in and hope that’s enough to recover or do I get back on injections ?

Everyone is different but there’s a good chance that if you stop your body will go back to it’s normal… whatever that normal is… just might take a little longer.

So I can stop the enclomiphene then and stay off everything and I should start back up?

Are you sure it’s ENclomiphine and not just Clomiphine?

It says on the label enclomiphene. It is compounded from defy medical

What does that mean

Just making sure, but that’s weird. It should be the easier-tolerated version

Yeah I don’t know. It did mention Ed in the paperwork temporarily. So maybe it’s normal. But I’m ready to be off it.

Hey guys, I am currently using enclomiphene(not clomid) to ease off of trt. I’ve been on it 10 days and have had some pretty bad side effects. Numb penis, shrinkage, and pretty bad Ed. My libido is currently non existent. How long realistically will I need to take this stuff to restart? Would two weeks on it be enough? Does it have to be a full six weeks? I don’t want to just quit it but I also don’t want to take this an extended amount of time with these side effects.

4-6 weeks

That’s what I was afraid of. It literally takes away sexual desire, to the point where pills don’t even help. I’m not sure it’s worth it to keep on with it. Might be better off just getting back on shots

A PCT is just meant to speed up the natural process. Instead of taking months you can restart in 4-6 weeks. You could stop taking them and let your body return to baseline naturally. Or wait it out a bit.

Yeah I guess where my hang up is, is I’ve taken the enclomiphene for two weeks. What I believe to be the side effects of it are killing me.(unless this is purely side effects of stopping trt) but not even feeling attraction or sexual desire is odd. I have zero libido which is also causing Ed. Anyways, my hang up is will the two weeks I’ve taken the enclomiphene speed up my natural recovery if I stop it now or will I still be struggling for months. Not sure there is a way to know.

How long ago did you stop testosterone?

I stopped 14 days ago

The first week I felt fine and then the second week I was horrible

So you’ve basically been on enclomiphene for absolutely no reason this whole time. Your trt test likely hasn’t even fully cleared yet, so you kind of gave yourself two weeks of side effects for no tangible benefits. You should have been starting the enclomiphene right around now instead of 12 days ago.

Great well then that settles it. I’m just going to get back on the shots for a while longer. So when I’m ready to get off the shots I need to wait two weeks before starting the enclomiphene? I was told wait a few days to start
