    Listening to your Hormones

     

    Clomid or clomiphene citrate are being used by
    urologists and reproductive endocrinologists routinely
    to assist with male fertility.

    Dr. Marrs' Fertility Book Chapter 9 talks about the use of
    the same drugs which successfully regulate ovulation
    in infertile women (clomid, FSH and human menopausal gonadotropin)
    in controlled studies have shown no significant benefit to men.

    There are however, situations which do warrant
    the use of these drugs to stimulate fertility
    such as with men who have reduced levels of FSH and LH.
    Dr. Marrs goes on to suggest that you should question
    your doctor carefully if the doc wants you to take them.

    I am not a lady, very very much a man to be sure.
    I've recently have had my vasectomy reversed
    and now the Doctor is wanting me to use clomid to help
    "wake up" the little sperms within. I've looked and
    looked for information concerning the
    male side of clomid and have come up empty.
    If you can help me I would appreciate it.
    Thanks

    I've done some research and, without being able to quote
    sources, found that clomid in men is a drug of convenience.
    Meaning that, if the surgery was successful and you have been
    reconnected and your still able to make sperm, then clomid
    will simply speed up the process to create sperm.
    The problems exists when you stop taking clomid
    the process (sperm production) slows down dramatically.
    Therefore, if you choose not to participate in taking clomid,
    and your ability to make sperm still exist's,
    then it can take from 3-18 months
    before you and your "sample" realize a normal sperm count.
