Enclomiphene and topical dht

@obscuremelon your low T is a symptom of a bigger issue, it’s probably not the cause of your issues. You also have no idea why you are hypogonadal - is your LH too low ? Do your testes not respond to LH? Etc.
Antagonising the estrogen receptor in the pituarity and agonising it elsewhere with a SERM, to flood yourself with LH is a terrible way to try to fix your issues.

@laoa hans amoto (men-elite, testo-nation) got his T up to like 1200ng dl naturally
his subscription fee is like $300 a month and he has hundreds of subscribers, i think he probably has valuble information because earnings is a reflection of value

Lh 3 u/l
Fsh 8 u/l
Estrodiol <85 pool/l
Testosterone 15.5 nmol/l
Shbg 41 nmol/l
Dhea 8.3 nmol/l
Free testosterone 279.4 previously 232.4 pool/lOther biomarkers out of range transferrin 24 , bilirubin 23
I have tried lowering shbg with boron, tongkat Ali and have had no effects
I notice more of a difference on enclomiphene, and cistanche
I excercise a lot, I eat well, I sleep well now need to get a new blood test to see where my new range is as this was a while ago but I can just feel when my levels are lower these days. I will do a new blood test in two weeks once cistanche is out of my system . Any help with this would be great as the doctor won’t help me and I’ve tried my hardest and I can’t seem to crack it . The weirdest part is I look like someone with relatively high t I have a lot of muscle visible 6 pack not a load of facial hair but very athletic looking I just don’t feel the way I look.. lh to fsh ratio is off too hence why I went down the enclomiphene path it might not be the best option but it’s better than shutting down the testes forever

@sushi_is_cringe
Hans is becoming more and more cringe, good for him his business is doing great, but he's not someone I look up to at all, let alone want to be like him.
I know enclomiphene is not viable long term and has lots of potential risks, even without the zuclomiphene, but I like to explore what it feels like to have heightened LH/FSH and higher androgens without exogenous hormones. I want to be able to compare.
And as for OP if hesscared of needles and supression this could be a viable, though riskier and more unknown territory option, providing he's doing the basics already. -
@laoa y u say dis?

Not scared of needles scared of shutting down the Crown Jewels forever as you should be ..

@obscuremelon well then dont mess around with serms and exo adrogens obviously, use the sparse energy you waste on worrying about serms and supression to find whats actually causing your low T, as Alfredo implies, go to the source of it. Endocrine disrupters come in many many forms, do you carry emf near the balls, did you take fluoride tablets as a kid, did you play in the dirt where there used to be a production of anything pfas and similar, did that thyroid get a bump when they xrayed the shit out of you to put on them damned braces, were you a victim of 60's parents that raised you on soymilk and tofu, you maybe work a heavy metal infested job, is all the light you see during the day fluorescent bulbs shining on that hip workfloor of that hipster startup, you sure you get you diet right and adjusted to you personally, you took any antidepressants maybe, did your mom enjoy her prozac when pregnant, .. thousands of, at least partly, correctable reasons that dont involve serms or androgens. Dont bandaid the arterial bleed.

Yes mate well aware of all those things I have done a genetic test . Done blood tests I try and avoid these disrupters as much as I can . Doesn’t really help me get to fixing the problem right away does it I have spent enough time trying to figure out what the problem is I want a solution now that can counter it I have now spent since November 2023 trying to figure this out

Enclo isn’t great. It does increase serum T, but I found it causes low e2 symptoms after a while, even if serum estrogens are high. This isn’t a drug I would take consistently long term.
It won’t prevent shutdown from synthetic androgens because it only blocks the negative estrogen feedback.

@Mallard6146 said in Enclomiphene and topical dht:
It won’t prevent shutdown from synthetic androgens because it only blocks the negative estrogen feedback.
Well natural androgens such as testosterone and nandrolone and synthetic androgens such as dianabol, boldenone and trestolone turn into estrogen and can exert their supressive effects via estrogen. So it can help mitigate shutdown driven by synthetic and natural androgens.

Makes sense.
