Clomiphene Citrate, Overlooked Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) Alternative? 2.5x Higher T, No Side Effects

Written by | published on
Image
Can you replace androgel or injectable T with regular chlomiphene citrate tablets? Or is this just "broscience"? While many of the things people will tell you about the negative side-effects of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) are scientifically questionable, un- or even disproven, there's one nasty side effect that is simply unavoidable: the decline in natural testosterone production. Needless to say that this is why natural testosterone boosters, i.e. products that contain (natural) ingredients that may boost your own endogenous testosterone production, are so popular. Unfortunately, these pills have a larger impact on their manufacturers revenue than your T-levls. If they even work, the meager 20%-30% T increase they have to offer is simply not enough for someone whose testosterone level hovers at <250 ng/dl and thus 50ng/dl below the "low T" cutoff. Higher T levels won't build tons of muscle on its own, but it will make these more effectiv...

BroScience Research: "What do Bros Say About AAS Use and the Prevention of Shut Down & Infertility?"

Written by | published on

Are today's "muscle men" not going to be able to procreate? If you are frequenting any of the popular fitness and bodybuilding bulletin boards, you will know that "broscience" is a mixture of anecdotal evidence and hilarious claims that is spiked with cherry picked scientific references. Against that background it may sound funny that researchers from the New Castle Fertility Center  devoted a complete study to the analysis of drugs and protocols highlighted by the online community of users for prevention and/or mitigation of adverse effects of steroid use. If you think about it, however, it's only logical that doctors will be better able to help their patients if they understand what brought them in a situation in which they have to see a doctor at a fertility clinic. Resistance training is the only powerful  muscle builders  with positive health effects! Tri- or Multi-Set Training for Body Recomp.? Alternating Squat & Blood Pressure - Pro...

Image of the week: Golf-ball sized tumors from GMO corn and a >100% increase in mortality in female rodents are the results of the (at least in Europe) much debated study by Gilles-Eric Séralini et al. (Séralini. 2012) I must admit that I got somewhat bored with writing the same, or at least very similar introductions time and again. So I decided to start each and every installment of On Short Notice with either a picture or a figure that impressed, amused, enraged or, as in this case, shocked me, when I hit on it. The image you see on the right shows the rodents from the French GMO corn study that made the news earlier this week. Females, to be precise. With golf-ball sized mammary gland tumors. Nasty and the result of a life on a 22% GMO or 22% GMO + Round-Up diet ... yeah, you read me right: 22% was enough. In fact, "the rate of mortality [...] reach[ed] a threshold at the lowest (11%) or intermediate (22%) amounts of GM maize" (Séralini. 2012), already, and that ...

Chest Fat, Bitch Tits, Chesticles, Gynecomastia, Lipomastia and Co.: Infinite Ways to Name it, Only 5 to Get Rid of It

Image 1: Is it what he eats, is it what he drinks or is it just  andropause? Whatever it may be, Jack does not have the "classic gyno". In the last installment of this two-part series on gynecomastia, lipomastia and co. we have seen that the number of appellations this common, mostly benign enlargement of the male breast has been given, is easily outnumbered by the potential, mostly pharmacological, but also supplemental and/or dietary factors which have been implicated in its development. In a recent paper, Krysiak and Okopien estimate the incidence of mild proliferation of the glandular breast tissue to 30%-50% of the male population ( Krysiak. 2012 ). Against that background, the universal ignorance towards the profound psychological effects, as well as the tacit acceptance that, breasts or no breasts, "men don't cry" are certainly uncalled-for. If it's benign you got to live with it! The idea, "if it's not cancerous", it won...

Milk Thistle in PCT - Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) Still a Liver Killer, Despite Hepatoprotective Effect of Silymarin or Ziziphus

Image 1: Silybum marianum , a medical plant that has been used to treat liver disease for >2,000 years and is a staple in many "post cycle therapy" supplements you can current purchase at your favorite supplement store. Whether or not you are into "performance enhancing drugs" does not really matter. If you have browsed through the range of one of the myriad of on-line supplement vendors, you will have seen them: the "liver protectors" , "supplements for liver health" , or simply "post-cycle recovery" supplements. The most common ingredient, you will see on the labels of supplements listed in these or similar categories, is silymarin , a flavonoid complex consisting of silybin (the most active component), silydanianin and silychristin , which is either extracted or simply contained in a crude extract of the seeds of Silybum marianum , a flowering plant of the daisy family, the manufacturers put into their capsules. While scien...
