If a man were to take HCG & Clomid would this have the same effect ie: multiple births as a woman taking it?? Thanks for any input from anyone as I am cannot find info on men taking this, anywhere. Thanks in advance

I can't see why on earth it would result in multiple births; it does in women because it stimulates the ovaries to produce more eggs than usual, but given that men produce millions of sperm at a time, any extra would be unlikely to make a difference (even if the drugs affected sperm production like that; I would have thought it would be the other way round if anything). HTH.

Don't know if this helps?

Sorry, I should have added, any one egg can only be fertilised by one sperm, so even if a man was producting 100x more sperm than usual it wouldn't cause multiple births.
