Who here uses clomid on-cycle?

[DaMan]

Notice I'm not asking if you SHOULD, I'm wondering who DOES.

E2 on AF recommends running 50mg throughout the entire cycle to help alleviate nut atrophy and for a faster recovery post-cycle.

Animal (THE Animal) recommends doing 100-200mg 3-day bursts every 2 or 3 weeks while on-cycle, so basically HCG style. For the same purpose.

Anyone done that? Experiences?

Doesn't sound right to take clomid while on unless your test levels begin to crash and other problems

It would definately help. Same with taking most anti-estrogens or anti-aromatise's as well. Take them throughout the cycle and you not only prevent estrogenic side effects cosmetically but also delay the shutdown of your htpa.

I remember when E2 was the man on this board when I first joined about 3 years ago. I remember him being a solid advoctae on running clomid throughout. If I remember the only debate on it wast ehat you would loose the potency of the clomid during post cycle when you would need it the most. Something to think about.

Yes, that's what I thought too. If you run it during the cycle it could decrease its efficacy to restart your test production after a cycle.

i used to run it during pro-hormone cycles, and a short time thereafter (like with mag-10 or dermal nordiol etc). but wouldn't do it with heavy AAS.

Yea that's what we were discussing on AF, hence the suggestion of using Animal's cycle... short clomid bursts throughout the cycle to avoid drug tolerance.

I have heard it is pointless to run it during your cycle. Just what I heard though. Do some research

What do you think the point of this thread is?

LOL

But on a serious note...

I have used Clomid during a cycle a few years ago and it did not seem to have any effect at all.

A post cycle regimine is still needed.

The main point that it is used (Ulter, E2) is that it will keep the testes "fuller". It will not do much for te HPTA while on, but will help out to some small degree. Its main benefit is for aesthetics of the the balls while on.

It is a weak/mild antiestrogen as well.

Whether or not it will lose its effectiveness, I don't know, but I imagine you could just ramp up the dosage post-cycle like normal...300/100/50...until you get where you need to be. Of course, this usually will follow a small bout of HCG and Nolvadex. You have to remember that E2 and especially Ulter follow some sort of AAS indefinately for very long periods as well. E2 has been doing this for awhile so I'd probably believe him on it.

You will still be shut down, but I do not think it will be as hard post cycle to get the twins rollin' again.

REALGAINS has talked about using HCG thrughout a cycle on a similar topic.

I know, I was discussing this as an addition to a recovery (well, sorta) regimen, not as a replacement for the standard post-cycle one.

I like your points though.

Here's what I plan to do next cycle: every 2 or 3 weeks run clomid for 3 days @ 100mg, hcg @ 500iu for 3 days, and nolva @ 20mg for - yup - 3 days.

All this followed by standard post-cycle regimen.
