Major League Baseball said he took Clomiphene. The drug is approved by the FDA to treat infertility in women, but not in men. (www.espn.com)

Responses:

that's interesting.. he's not taking testosterone (could be PED) or HCG (is not)... looks like Clomiphene acts more like HCG than anything. - colin Apr 5, 11:28 3
- iirc, it’s used as a masking agent, which is why it’s banned. -- nm - znufrii Apr 5, 12:02
- I wonder if it's a masking agent that would hide the use of a banned substance. -- nm - Krusty Apr 5, 11:54 1
  - possible... but ida know. it's not FDA approved for fertility, but so are a lot of other drugs. i'm sure we'll find out more. -- nm - colin Apr 5, 12:02
