CLONIPHENE CITRATE (CLOMID)
Clomid may be prescribed to men with: Low testosterone levels (hypogonadism), Infertility due to low sperm count or poor sperm quality, and Oligospermia (low sperm production).
Common benefits
-
Stimulates Testosterone Production:
Clomid signals the pituitary gland to release more FSH and LH, leading to increased natural testosterone production in men with hypogonadism.
-
Increased FSH and LH also stimulate the testes, leading to improved sperm count and motility.
-
Clomid can be prescribed for men with hormonal infertility or those with unexplained infertility to improve fertility outcomes.
-
For men with low testosterone, this boost in hormone levels can lead to better energy, mood, libido, and overall sense of well-being.
How it works
Clomid works by blocking the effects of estrogen in the body. This increases the production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), which in turn stimulate the testes to produce more testosterone and sperm.
