What side effects did you get from Clomid?

[ECTOmorph]

Anwas there anything you did to counter them?

 

[anabolicrhino]

eye floaters and crying jags. When I stopped taking clomid the sides went away

 

[fatsuperman]

at 100 mg a day I turned into a crying *****

at 50 mg a day don't notice a thing, except my boys recover in size faster

 

[ECTOmorph]

any anxiety?

 

[fatsuperman]

actually I have had that but not sure if it was my normal state, or just the fact that the cycle was finished and I had a hormonal balance issue.

but I can state without a doubt clomid makes you more prone to cry and act emotional like a woman at 100mgs a day

 

[bpmartyr]

Makes me cry like a Mulletsoldier rejected by Ubiquitous.

 

[Chewster]

definatley makes me very emo style, wanting to cry i didnt feel good and couldnt wait for it to end.

 

[ECTOmorph]

Cry out of nowhere...or only when certain things happen

I dont want to be sitting in class and then start to crying out of nowhere

 

[jomi822]

100mgs a day will indeed make you cry like Mulletsoldier rejected by Ubiquitous.

you wont just cry out of nowhere you will have to be watching an emotional chick flick...not that i watch chick flicks.

personally i felt myself tearin up at the da vinci code while on 100mgs of chlomid. you almost want to laugh but instead you just cry. chlomid should come with tampons

 

[Ubiquitous]

I cried at Whale Rider in the Theatre when using Clomid.

Everything said above is true. It's great for HPTA recovery but bad for your personal relationships. I was not only emotional, but I was aggressive and had a lot of arguements with people due to it. My wife hates Clomid more than I do now.

BP, Mullet is persistent if nothing else. Bless his little heart.

 

[Loadre]

I notice absolutely zero sides from it at 100 mg day

 

[ECTOmorph]

Ok nice

How bout some good sides now? Horny, huge loads, ect?

 

[jomi822]

well chlomid is the porn star drug. if you want to give your girlfriend a little extra flying dutchman chlomid would certainly do the trick.

i found that toremifene was ridiculous in this regard. almost scary but in a good way. you might want to warn your woman if you use toremifene or she will end up in the hospital with high pressure water hose type injuries.

 

[mixedup]

don't forget the crazy chlomid acne that s*** lights up by back worse the t-prop. Although tamox/chlomid combo is a real fast recovery and i've used both many times over the past decade

 

[jonny21]

eye floaters and other visual effects

 

[ECTOmorph]

Well 2 days in for me @ 100mg a day and no good or bad effects. I expected to be balling my eyes out right now lol

Correction. I teared up a couple of times the other night watching something on TV but I've just finished 30 mls and that was the first time out of everything. Vision is a little wierd. Sex drive is still nonexistant but that's probably from hormone imbalance. Time for Nolva.

I keep hearing diff things, Nolva better at bringing back hormonal imbalances and then I hear Clomid is...wtf

 

[Tom 185]

i was going to run nolva 40/40/20/20 with clomid 150/100/50....

does anyone have experience running clomid alone their first 1-2 weeks...and then finishing off with nolva for a total pct of 5-6 weeks?

 

[pcn]

Tom 185, I tried that my last PCT. I got the idea from a PCT recommended by Dr. D in another post. I'll have to look up the dosages tonight, but I want to say it was 200 mg ED for 2 weeks. I remember some of the emotional issues, but not severe. The back acne mentioned above is interesting, because I still have it and its been over a week since ending the 4 week Nolva section of the PCT. I had thought it was from either the DHEA or the RXT, but it looks like I need to look into it more closely to find the culprit.

200mg is the dose that you would load for 2 days not 2 weeks. I would take the Clomid X 2 weeks and the Nolva X 3 weeks if you were to mix.

Clomid:
Day 1 & 2 @200mg.
Days 3-7 @ 100mg
Days 8-14 @ 50mg

Nolva:
Days 15-21 @ 50mg
Days 22-28 @ 25mg
Days 29-35 @ 12.5mg

Clomid messed up my friend's vision pretty bad. I think it started at about week 3 of his post cycle therapy, then lasted for another month after he stopped taking it.

He said that couldn't focus on his computer monitor, and that he had one heck of a time reading street signs.

His vision came back to normal in about a month. I don't think he had any other issues.

P.S. He's switched to Toremifene since, and hasn't had any such issues.

I had to hunt for a while to find the original post, but here it is below. Some may disagree with the clomid dosage, or with running a SERM inverse to ADT, but I'll trust in Dr. D's experience and knowledge. In fact, the last 2 PCT's where I've followed this, I've actually (1) continued to gain strength during PCT, and (2) felt pretty decent, even good, during PCT.

Estrogen only "rebounds" based on the mechanism of suppression. SERM, for example, only masks estrogen expression by occupying receptors but estrogen production is left unchecked and actually increases as testosterone levels increase. AI's like letro inhibit inducible enzymes and just like a leaky faucet, they body will eventually try to balance the equation with increased aromatase activity. Steroidal AI's like Teslac, Exemestane, and ReboundXT will not result in 'rebound' phenomena because the inhibition is non-competitive and irreversible. They act as false substrates, so aromatase is still happy to act on them (instead of androstenedione) and the body keeps no record of an imbalance. There is no leaky faucet. In fact, after prolonged use, steroidal AI's often produce a protracted anti-e benefit even after being discontinued. This is why I suggest an inverse taper with SERM and RXT for post cycle therapy with an abrupt stoppage of RXT at the end. As the SERM elevates androgen/estrogen production, the AI dose is increased to compensate while the SERM is phased out. It works quite well to use this approach and rebound is not encountered. Adding LX and/or DHEA also really makes for a killer PCT in this scheme. This is a typical example of my PCT:

wk1: Clomid 150mg/d, RXT 25mg/d, DHEA 200mg/d, LX 75mg/d
wk2: Clomid 100mg/d, RXT 25mg/d, DHEA 200mg/d, LX 50mg/d
wk3: Nolva 60mg/d, RXT 50mg/d, DHEA 200mg/d, LX 25mg/d
wk4: Nolva 40mg/d, RXT 50mg/d, DHEA 100mg/d
wk5: Nolva 20mg/d, RXT 75mg/d, DHEA 100mg/d
wk6: RXT 75mg/d, DHEA 100mg/d

Notice I phase the Clomid out and introduce the Nolva later. This helps prevent sides from developing from accumulation of estrogenic metabolites from the Clomid and also acts to minimize the use of Nolva, which is more liver toxic than Clomid. Rebound is very unlikely and estrogen biosynthesis will likely be significantly lowered for 3+ wks even after the end of this PCT. I do long ones, as you can see.

interesting pct, but why not just clomid all the way?

 

[THETEST]

I used clomid with Femera and weekly shots of HCG and things went pretty smooth - HCG is awsome -but I did encounter the acne - about 12 zits on each shoulder in back - not it is still hitting around the chest - just a few - but I am sick of it - PCT for 8 weeks now.

Update, Clomid makes me feel like a woman and Nolva makes me listen to country music.
