Clomid General Info

Clomid is an anti-estrogen drug that is used to treat infertility. Clomid was created in 1970, and since then, it has been widely used in clinical medicine, bodybuilding, and other sports.

Clomid Classification

Clomid with its active ingredient Clomiphene Citrate is a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) with agonist and antagonist properties on estrogen receptors (ER) in different tissues. Clomid is a partial anti-estrogen, and sometimes it is used for this purpose. We do not recommend Clomid for this purpose and strongly advise using more advanced and potent compounds such as aromatase inhibitors (Arimidex, Aromasin) to prevent estrogen levels spikes. Besides being a partial anti-estrogen, Clomid influences the HPTA axis and enhances the release of FSH and LH hormones, which are crucial during Post Cycle Therapie.

Clomid and the Hypothalamic-Pituitary Gland-Testes Axis (HTPA) 

Clomid stimulates Hypotolamus

Hypothalamus stimulates Pituitary Gland to release Gonadotrophic Hormones FSH and LH.

FSH stimulates the testes to produce more Testosterone

LH stimulates the testes to secrete more Testosterone

Result

The increase of endogenous Testosterone production

Clomid in Bodybuilding

All steroids taken in doses sufficient to promote muscle gains will suppress endogenous testosterone production. Some suppress it stronger, and others have a milder effect. A Post Cycle therapy after each AAS cycle is crucial and more important than the cycle itself. Clomid is the first-ever used recovery drug for Post Cycle Therapy. Clomid is a very potent and reliable compound for PCT. That is why it has been a prevalent choice for post-cycle therapies for more than five decades.
