Clomiphene citrate belongs to a new generation of antiestrogenic agents. It has found its use both for medical purposes and in sports. It is widely used by those involved in bodybuilding and other power sports.
 
In bodybuilding, Clomid is used to block the action of estrogen. This is necessary to increase the production of testosterone by the body and maintain an active pituitary-hypothalamus-ovarian arc. Long-term use of steroids reduces the body's production of the male hormone testosterone. To return its level to an acceptable value, it is necessary to take antiestrogen, in particular clomiphene citrate.
