Go see your doc: Clomiphene (Clomid) is used off-label to stimulate testicular production of both sperm & testosterone in (young) men w/hypogonadism who desire to remain fertile. Excess T can be converted into Estradiol which can cause gynecomastia. Therefore, you need to see prescribing doc & get levels evaluated so that s/he can prescribe a more appropriate dose (or offer a hormonal domino effect eg Anastrozole)
