Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) or Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) remains the most commonly utilized approach to treat hypogonadism in men.
Administered correctly, TRT is widely regarded as safe, highly effective, and significantly beneficial to overall quality of life. However, the therapy is not without its limitations.
These challenges have prompted researchers and clinicians to investigate alternative compounds that could potentially substitute Testosterone in HRT. Below, we will explore two such alternatives—Clomid (Clomiphene) and Enclomiphene—focusing on their advantages, disadvantages, and feasibility as long-term treatments.
I find this hard to believe, but some doctors are prescribing Clomid (Clomiphene) as a TRT alternative to men with low Testosterone.
It works by stimulating the pituitary gland to signal the testes to produce more Testosterone, making it effective in increasing endogenous Testosterone levels.
While it is true that Clomid can increase testosterone levels significantly, it comes with nasty side-effects like moodiness, depression and vision problems.
For these reasons, using Clomid as HRT is incredibly dangerous. You cannot be on Clomid for months on end just because it keeps your testosterone levels high. You will not feel like a HIGH T man feels, and you will experience serious side-effects.
As an alternative to Clomid, Enclomiphene offers a similar mechanism of action by stimulating endogenous Testosterone production, but with fewer psychological side effects. It is reported to provide a better overall experience, with users feeling more masculine and functional compared to those on Clomid, but we still don’t know what its long term side-effects are and if it can also cause vision problems.
The main benefit of Clomid and Enclomiphene in their oral bioavailability and their ability to avoid the complete suppression of the HPTA seen with exogenous androgens like traditional TRT. However, side effects and long-term risks restrict their use as dependable therapies for extended durations.
Enclomiphene may offer a better short-term solution compared to Clomid, but neither is currently a viable substitute for traditional TRT for prolonged treatment of hypogonadism.
Everything you would ever want or need to know about SARMs, and how to properly use, maximize, and recover from them.
The SARMs Wiki is the culmination of 7 years worth of knowledge coming from independent experimentation with myself and hundreds of my clients, probably thousands of hours of research, going through every study, and the online reports of thousands of SARMs and PED users.
If you're ready to spend 150$+ on SARM cycles, why not do it right from the very start and save yourself the troubles of dealing with the nuances and complications of PED use?
The Peptide Wiki is an all-in-one guide that will give you a deep understanding of how each peptide works and how you can use them correctly and find the perfect one (or stack) to reach your goals (16 Total Most Popular Peptides Covered).
Not only will you learn how these peptides work in your body, but you will also learn how to prevent their potential side-effects, and how to reconstitute, dose, and store use them correctly (super easy to mess this up).
If you're going to spend hundreds of $ on Peptides, you might as well do them right.
