WHY IS MY DOCTOR PRESCRIBING ME CLOMID FOR LOW TESTOSTERONE? We all know that the testosterone levels in men begin to decrease slowly over time. When men reach their mid-20’s a shift begins to take place and hormone levels in men on average will start to decline between 1 and 2% annually. There are many other possible causes of Low T in men. Factors such as genetics, age, medications and other medical factors like diabetes, obesity or cancer are all examples of things that could cause a disruption to the endocrine system causing male andropause.
For many patients Clomid can be an excellent adjunct to testosterone replacement therapy protocols for all the benefits mentioned above. For some patients it’s even used as a mono-therapy. It’s commonly used to treat fertility issues in men and can exclude many of the side effects associated with testosterone replacement while providing some of the benefits. It is also taken as a pill or capsule making it more convenient than subcutaneous injections.
