Labs came back in summary: Low free-T High SHBG Low LH Low Estradiol-Sensitive A few other things slightly out of range. I went through Defy medical. The doctor is prescribing: Clomid (12.5mg, taken every other day) Anastrozole (.125mg, taken 3x per week) (Estrogen blocker) He also recomme…

Clomid isn’t usually used in men with high SHBG, clomid increases SHBG, there must be another reason for attempting it. If you on any medications for depression and or anxiety, that could increase SHBG.

What did your Defy blood tests look like. My guess is if Defy did not put you on T then your numbers were not to bad and though they could get your ball working better with the clomid.

The lab results were: Low free-T High SHBG Low LH Low Estradiol-Sensitive Low D3 Low Iodine Underperforming Thyroid I’ve heard of people on JUSt clomid. I’m curious what their experience was like, and the time frame to be expected before an effect is noticed. I’m on no current medications …

I have heard with an Underperforming Thyroid TRT might not even work. I’ve never seen any studies on this but still. Looks like they are trying to get your Thyroid performing better and give your nuts a swift kick to fire them up as well. Sounds like a good plan to me. When do they want new bloods? …

New blood labs will be taken in 6 weeks of this protocol.

I’m 2 weeks in on 25mg clomid EOD and just started .25mg of Anastrozol M/W/F this week after a libido crash and itchy boobs from my first week without Anastrozol probably due to e2 increase. I have high SHBG low free T and LH. Clomid will increase SHBG due to the rise of e2 it creates that’s why it…

@heyyouguys - Your labs & treatment plan seem to be very similar to mine. My Clomid dose is just 12.5mg instead of 25mg. What provider are you going through for your treatment? Have you noticed any effects (outside of the libido crash and itchy boobs) thus far? Any improvements in your symptoms? …

Local urologist as my provider. Symptoms of elevated e2 have mostly went away after starting the AI. Improvement not so much yet and yes it’s the beginning of treatment for me.

@heyyouguys - What was your estrogen tested at prior to you starting your treatment? Since you’re on a similar treatment protocol to me, but a couple weeks ahead of me, I would definitely be interested in your new labs. I’ll keep you posted with mine as well.

Estradiol 25 pg/ml <=53 pg/ml not the preferred E2 test but I will request sensitive next round. I’ve gained 5 pounds this week and that is unusual for me.
