question from a user
What's your experience with enclo alongside trt. Large chain in my area offers enclo but not hcg. Possible to maintain fertility on this protocol? Is enclo typically more effective with less frequent dosing?
AlphaMD's Answer
There are zero studies to cite where enclomiphene is used concurrently with TRT. For this reason, its use is still considered experimental. We have seen some men still maintain a measurable LH level with enclomiphene while on TRT, which would suggest it works. That being said, some men naturally can maintain LH release despite TRT use, even without enclomiphene.
Basically, if you ever choose to use enclomiphene as a substitute for hCG, you are choosing to be a test subject in an untested and unproven experiment.
hCG is proven to work and overcomes all suppressive effects of TRT. You have only seen clinics using SERMs along with TRT since new pharmacy regulations have made hCG hard to source. Basically, if you can get hCG, you should.
