TRT and sterility

Royal244 · Nov 6, 2018

Greetings. So, i just got the results from my semen analysis. It says that i have no sperm in my semen. Now, i've been on TRT for excacly 9 months. Is it normal that i've been sterilized after such time? And is there a hope of brining me back 'online' sometime in a future? Because i am NOT planning to stop TRT at this moment. I am 29 years old, by the way.

My endo told me the longer you stay on TRT, the longer recovery time. So I think it will take time to restore your sperm count. Try Clomid after you stop TRT.

Are you using HCG.

No, just testosterone. I don't want to stop trt so i am guessing that the situtation will become even more difficult in the future.

Royal244 can you tell us what is the reason why you got on TRT in so early age? did you have Primary or secondary Hypogonadism?

HCG and FSH added to a TRT protocol, problem solved.

so low dose Clomid does not work while on TRT to retain fertility?

Secondary. My testosterone was low after puberty.

It can work for some, clomid blocks estrogen in the brain and is one reason why I think men feel terrible on it.

Yes I do not feel good on Clomid. Ithink I will do better with TRT. Definately going on TRT next month after doing blood test end of this month.

I believe I am secondary also. Need TRT. Clomid not working for me.

And let's assume that there's a guy who has been on trt for 10 years (let's say he's 35 years old). No HCG, just testosterone. Is it likely that he'll become fertile again? I am not talking about restarting him to the point when he would be able to produce his own testosterone in good values, but just start creating sperm (at least temporary) which would be able to make a women pregnant. How likely is this?

Very likely, since many bodybuilder who are using doses of drugs 50x what most men on TRT use have conceived children after retiring from the sport. The only way to know is to try.
