Regarding Enclomiphine while on TRT to maintain testicular function, do you see many issues with IGF-1 with many of your patients?

AlphaMD's Answer

Yes. Many, many patients come to AlphaMD after being treated with enclomiphene. Nearly all of them complain that they lose strength and muscle over time. When providers check their IGF-1 levels, they are well below normal. It is an unfortunate side effect of both clomid and enclomiphene.
