Groin Pain

Hi I know this is late but ive only just disovered your post - i had terrible constant groin pain for a number of years, docs would say the source could be the hip or back.

However, after further investigations I discovered I had low testosterone and they put me on testosterone patches... I eventually was given clomiphene citrate (which is not normal for a guy to take) .

Clomiphene citrate was the best med i had to stop the pain - Can you believe it was down to Pituatory Gland malfunction that was causing the groin pain? This may be the reason your getting pain down there - you may have low testosterone or estrogen levels or they may be too high?. The clomiphene citrate stimulates the pituartory and is also an estrogen blocker

Hi saulman

Yes! I too get a pain in the never regions especially if I sit for too long. I also have a slight problem with the (how should I say it?) the man thing! I have an appointment to have this checked out (very embarrassing). I presume it is just another part of the fibromyalgia. I have read on NHS Choices that hormone imbalances are a key factor in the syndrome.

You take care of yourself and good luck

Thanks Ken, you too - if your interested reply back and I'll send you list of amino acids which can be purchased from a health food store that can increase hormone levels naturally

Hi Saulman

I would really appreciate that list on amino acids please! I am having all kinds of problems in that region. The last few days I have started with what appears to be a prostrate problem as well. I do not have a clue if fibromyalgia can cause a prostrate problem or not? I am 50 years old so maybe its just a natural thing, I really don't know?

Many thanks

Ken (the author).
