Clomid for men?

So DH had bloodwork done and the doctor said his "ssh" (according to husband per phone call, I think he means FSH) is high and that may be causing low testosterone so they prescribed him clomid. Has anyone ever heard of using it in men?

Re: Clomid for men?

  • Yes, there have been a couple posters here on TTGP whose husbands have taken it with positive results. If you don't get responses here, you could try the Trouble TTC board. Best of luck to you. :)

    ETA:  Did he have a repeat blood work and semen analysis just to be sure?

  • This was just bloodwork. Doc says they want him on the clomid for a month before they do a semen analysis.

  • I wouldn't go taking any drugs before you see what his SA looks like, personally. You wouldn't take Clomid before making sure your tubes are clear and your husband has swimmers either, it's no different. He may have low T, but if he doesn't have sperm issues, Clomid won't really be doing anything for him. You may also want to consult with a urologist.

  • We will be going in for a consult for my DH for Clomid after the results we got back for his SA. We'll see how it goes!
