Had my follow up appointment with my Endo. today. I have been taking 25mg of clomid a day for the past 4 months. My starting total test was 285. After being on clomid for 4 months my total test is 588 (348-1197) Free test is 10.9 (9.3-26.5) and TSH is 1.13 (0.34-4.82). I am very happy my test increased which means my testies are capable of producing testosterone, I will have a better chance of having kids some day, and taking a pill is much easier than injecting/using cream. However, I feel no different. I still suffer from all of my previous symptoms. I see no difference in the gym or in my day to day life and you'd think I would seeing how my testosterone level nearly doubled. I honestly dont know what else to do. I mentioned to my Dr. that even though im in range, everyone is different and some people responed better being in the higher end of the scale. He agreed and we are going to increase my clomid dose to 50mg a day and do blood work again in 3 months. But where do I go from here? Im glad my low t has been addressed but im getting no relief from my symptoms (fatigue, no motivation, lack of energy, depression, low sex drive, "brain fog") Like I said its bittersweet- im glad my balls work but im concerned ill never find a solution to my problems.
