Arrow Clomiphene

I see many of your readers are interesting about medications and medicines, so now I going to touch that theme
information about medicines:
Clomiphene Citrate

Clomiphene citrate (brand name Clomid, Serophene) is used to induce ovulation. It revolutionized the field of infertility in the late 1950s.
Description

Clomiphene citrate is an orally administered medication. The initial dosage is 50 mg per day for five days, from day three to seven of the woman's cycle. The dose may be increased in subsequent cycles if the minimum dose does not result in ovulation.

Clomiphene citrate appears to act on the hypothalamus and is useful for women who do not ovulate because of hypothalamic or pituitary problems. Given early in the menstrual cycle (day three to seven), it suppresses the amount of naturally circulating estrogen. This "tricks" the pituitary into producing more follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). These hormones then stimulate the ovary to ripen a follicle and release an egg. Of patients who are properly screened for use of this drug, about 70 percent will ovulate, and 40 percent of those will become pregnant. If a patient ovulates but does not become pregnant, the physician should check cervical factors. The anti-estrogenic effect of clomiphene citrate can create a "hostile" environment for conception.

We usually start with the lowest dosage to minimize adverse reactions. We then increase the dose in a subsequent cycle if ovulation does not occur. The patient should begin testing urine for an LH surge daily with an ovulation test kit, beginning on day 11 or 12 of the cycle. Call the office when an LH surge occurs.

In most cases, we will examine you with transvaginal ultrasound to see whether the follicles are ready for ovulation and check the size of the ovaries. If they are excessively enlarged, we will stop treatment until the ovaries are back to the pre-treatment size. If the follicles are ready to ovulate, we will proceed with your treatment, which may include scheduling an intrauterine insemination, or advising you when to have natural intercourse.


Another medications are

Butalbital and aspirin combination is a pain reliever and relaxant. It is used to treat tension headaches. Butalbital belongs to the group of medicines called barbiturates . Barbiturates act in the central nervous system (CNS) to produce their effects.

Alprazolam is used to treat anxiety and panic disorders attacks, Anxiety disorders are characterized by unrealistic worry and apprehension, causing symptoms of restlessness, aches, trembling, shortness of breath, smothering sensation, palpitations, sweating, cold clammy hands, lightheadedness, flushing, exaggerated startle responses, problems concentrating, and insomnia. Panic attacks occur either unexpectedly or in certain situations (i.e. driving), and can require higher dosages of alprazolam.
Norco is prescribed for moderate to moderately severe pain. This is available in tablet, capsule, and liquid form and is taken every 4-6 hours by mouth.
The Lortab is prescribed for moderate to moderately severe pain. Hydrocodone binds to the pain receptors in the brain so that the sensation of pain is reduced. care must be taken to follow the doctor's instructions when taking Lortab.
Flexeril should be used only for short periods (no more than 3 weeks) And may be taken with or without food.

Clomid is superior in every way in restoring the HPGA.

Nolva appears to be only effective if you are not heavily suppressed, it does not stimulate LH release but mainly acts as priming agent for response to GnRH. Also it upregulates the PgR (this is via estrogenic as well as theorized non-genomic action) which can exacerbate gyno issues when progestins are involved. Nolva is commonly linked to post cycle gyno for this reason.

tamoxifen upregulates inhibin as well.

this is not to say that some people cannot use nolva with positive results, merely that both the clinical and anecdotal evidence are against it for use among the general population.

however that being said a lot is not known about the AAS suppressed state (which has a number of actors of which E is primary but certainly not alone).

WHat do you think about using clomid and nolvadex combined?

Tamoxifen has been shown to be quite effective for elevating gonadotropins. I have used it many times for this purpose, when I had to. I do prefer Clomid, though, UNLESS THERE ARE UNTOWARD SIDE EFFECTS (which we don't see with tamoxifen). In fact, as Dr. Shippen and I have independently found, just 25mg QD of Clomid is a very effective dose for restoring the HPTA.

Have you seen any studies with respect to Clomid and PR regulation?

Some claim tamoxifen is taxonimized incorrectly as a SERM, that it is a pure estrogen antagonist. I'm still thinking about that one. But its effects with respect to PR regulation is an important consideration there.

Titre du document / Document title
Inhibin and steroid responses to testicular stimulation in normal men

Résumé / Abstract
Static measurements of immunoreactive inhibin have proved to be of little relevance in the diagnosis of testicular disorders. To explore whether a dynamic evaluation of inhibin secretion might yield a more useful parameter of testicular function we compared the responses of inhibin with steroids to i.v. injections of pure follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH ; 300 IU) or human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG ; 1500 IU) and oral administration of the antioestrogen Tamoxifen (20 mg/day for 7 days) in four normal fertile men. Blood was aspirated between 1 and 72 h after the injections and daily during Tamoxifen intake. Four controls were injected with physiological saline solution. An additional four men were injected with pure FSH, and blood was taken after 24, 48 and 72 h. Injection of FSH was accompanied by nycthemeral variations of testosterone comparable with those observed in the controls. The concentration of inhibin showed similar nycthemeral variations but a significant increase was observed in all eight cases at 12 noon on days 2 and 3 after FSH injection. HCG injection resulted in the expected biphasic response of testosterone. Inhibin displayed a pronounced increase 18 h after injection but the delayed response after 48 and 72h was not observed. Tamoxifen intake increased testosterone but not inhibin, and caused a moderate and temporary increase of luteinizing hormone and FSH. It was concluded that primary stimulation both of Leydig cells by HCG and Sertoli cells by FSH increase circulating inhibin. Comparison with the testosterone response suggests that the inhibin peak 18 h after HCG administration may reflect Leydig cell function, and that the delayed response 48 and 72 h after FSH administration can be used as a parameter of Sertoli cell function.

Let's be careful about extrapolating unwarranted conclusions for status post AAS-use adult men based upon studies conducted on normal, fertile men.

WOuld you be opposed though to clomid and nbolva being used at the same time even if there is no point say at 50/20 repectively?

Your right on target rocco. I use clomid and nolva for pct at about those exact dosages.
Clomid has to be dosed too high to to the job all by itself.

I just bought a liquid clomid and nolva mix. I can't remember off the top of my head the dosage. I thinks its 50/30.

I have armidex, nolva, and clomid/nolva mix. They all serve their purpose.
