DH has been dx with low testosterone and has been receiving injections every 10 days to raise it but after I did some research and talked to his doctor we found out that this is not the best treatment for someone who is TTC. Very frustrating! Dr now wants us to go see a Reproductive Endo because she thinks he needs to be put on Clomid instead. He has not had a SA done yet either. Anyone have any experience with this?

Re: New here-question about clomid use in males for low testoterone
My DH had low testosterone. I can't remember the other important factor they check in the bw, but that part was fine.
I asked his urologist about prescribing clomid, and he said it wouldn't help. He said the clomid would only work on the other aspect (the one I can't remember). Since that was fine, we just had to hope it would rise.
The good news is we were able to get lots of spem from a biopsy. DH had a vasectomy, so we had to do a biopsy.
Sorry I couldn't remember the other part.
Hubby has low testosterone and was on testopel (a synthetic testosterone pellet that is placed under the skin). Totally the wrong treatment for someone TTC! Since then we have gone to a male reproductive endocrinologist. He plans on putting DH on hcG shots. It will cause DH's body to make its own testosterone as well as get his body making sperm again.
