Clomiphene Citrate Cycle
Clomiphene Citrate can be used for ovarian stimulation as well as to protect from gynecomastia caused by the use of aromatizing anabolic steroids. However, a Clomiphene Citrate cycle will normally only be implemented for the purpose of Post Cycle Therapy (PCT). A PCT refers to a phase implemented after an anabolic steroid user discontinues his anabolic steroid use. When supplementing with anabolic steroids, natural testosterone production is suppressed, and while suppression varies depending on the steroids used it will occur. For this reason, a Clomiphene Citrate cycle can be used in order to stimulate this suppressed natural testosterone production. Through a Clomiphene Citrate cycle, as natural testosterone production is brought back online, this not only protects the gains made while using steroids, but more importantly the individual’s overall health. If a Clomiphene Citrate cycle is not used at this phase or a related PCT cycle, the individual will risk a low testosterone condition. A low testosterone condition can prove to be extremely problematic, there are numerous adverse symptoms, and many of these symptoms can have a direct negative impact on your health.
Standard Clomiphene Citrate Cycle:
A standard Clomiphene Citrate cycle will normally need to last five to six weeks. During this PCT phase, the user will simply start with a high dose, ramp down to a lower dose and then discontinue use. For the purpose of natural testosterone stimulation, a standard Clomiphene Citrate cycle will be as follows:
Week 1: 150mg per day
Week 2: 150mg per day
Week 3: 100mg per day
Week 4: 100mg per day
Week 5: 50mg per day
Enhancing your Clomiphene Citrate Cycle:
A Clomiphene Citrate cycle is a great way to stimulate natural testosterone production, but we can enhance the process and make it far more efficient. The best way to do this is to introduce Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) prior to your Clomiphene Citrate cycle. From the profile page, you understand Clomid stimulates the pituitary to release more LH and FSH, thereby stimulating the testicles to make more testosterone. As for hCG, it produces a strong LH mimicking effect that dramatically primes the body for the SERM therapy to come, and as a result leads to a more effective PCT. For this purpose, most men will need 500-1,000iu’s of hCG every day for ten straight days. Once the hCG use is complete, they will immediately begin their Clomiphene Citrate cycle.
Timing your Clomiphene Citrate Cycle:
Depending on how your anabolic steroid cycle ends will determine when your Clomiphene Citrate cycle begins. Further, the use of hCG, if it is added in, will also change the timing. When it comes to this timing factor, this will revolve around small and large ester based anabolic steroids. If any large ester based steroids are used, you will wait a decent amount of time before beginning a PCT plan. The reason for the wait is that large ester based steroids take awhile to clear the body, and we must wait until all exogenous hormones have left our system before a Clomiphene Citrate cycle can begin. In order to time your Clomiphene Citrate cycle properly, the following information will serve you well:
Small Esters/No hCG: If your anabolic steroid cycle ends with all small ester based steroids, you will begin your Clomiphene Citrate cycle three days after your last injection.
Small Esters & hCG: If your anabolic steroid cycle ends with all small ester based steroids, you will begin your hCG therapy three days after your last injection, administer hCG every day for ten days, and then begin your Clomid therapy.
Large Esters/No hCG: If your anabolic steroid cycle ends with any large ester based steroids, you will begin your Clomiphene Citrate cycle fourteen days after your last injection.
Large Esters & hCG: If your anabolic steroid cycle ends with any large ester based steroids, you will begin your hCG therapy ten days after your last injection, administer hCG every day for ten days, and then begin your Clomid therapy.
