Contraindications: Clomiphene Citrate is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to clomiphene or any tablet excipient, active liver disease or impaired hepatic function, existing ovarian cysts unrelated to polycystic ovary syndrome, and any history of visual disturbances associated with prior SERM use. Not for use in women who are pregnant or may become pregnant.
Side Effects: Reported adverse effects include visual disturbances (blurring, flashes, floaters) — discontinue immediately if these occur and seek ophthalmological assessment. Additional effects may include mood variability, hot flushes, gastrointestinal upset, and headache. Elevated estrogen symptoms (water retention, gynecomastia) may occur if the dose exceeds the receptor-saturation threshold; consider an aromatase inhibitor adjunct if clinically appropriate.
Monitoring: Baseline bloodwork — total testosterone, LH, FSH, estradiol, and liver function — should be obtained before initiating PCT. A mid-protocol panel at the end of week two and a full review at week four are necessary to evaluate protocol adequacy and guide taper or extension decisions. Routine liver enzyme monitoring is advisable for protocols extending beyond four weeks.
PCT: Clomiphene Citrate is a SERM and a PCT agent, not a hormone replacement. Do not use concurrently with anabolic-androgenic steroids; androgen presence counteracts the anti-estrogenic stimulatory mechanism at the hypothalamus. This product is intended for use by adult males under qualified medical supervision; self-administration without clinical oversight is discouraged.
