The complete Clomid PCT guide covering dosages, protocols for heavy suppressive cycles, how Clomiphene restores testosterone and side effects.
Clomid (Clomiphene Citrate) is one of the most powerful post cycle therapy medications for restoring natural testosterone production after heavily suppressive anabolic steroid cycles. Clomid is a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) that stimulates the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to increase production of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone, Luteinizing Hormone, and Follicle Stimulating Hormone, all of which are essential for full natural testosterone recovery.
Both Clomid and Nolvadex are SERMs that work through similar mechanisms to restore testosterone but have important differences. Clomid is more powerfully stimulating to the pituitary making it better suited for more suppressive cycles involving Trenbolone or Deca Durabolin. However Clomid also causes more pronounced emotional side effects than Nolvadex. Many advanced users combine both Clomid and Nolvadex for the most comprehensive PCT protocol available.
| Cycle Type | Clomid Week 1-2 | Clomid Week 3-4 | Combined With |
|---|---|---|---|
| Moderate Suppression | 50mg / day | 25mg / day | Nolvadex optional |
| Heavy (Deca cycles) | 100mg / day | 50mg / day | Nolvadex 40/20mg |
| Very Heavy (Tren cycles) | 100mg / day | 50mg / day | Nolvadex 40/20mg |
Monitor Mood Carefully: Clomid causes more pronounced emotional side effects than Nolvadex. If you experience significant depression or mood instability on Clomid consider switching to Nolvadex only PCT. Never use Clomid at doses exceeding 100mg per day.
