What days do you pin HCG? How do you dose HCG? Is there a such thing as being excessive and doing harm or like diminished returns? Would 1000iu a week be enough? Does it raise your testosterone levels to the point where I would have to decrease TRT dose a bit?
So I dose it at 500 IU three days a week. SubQ M/W/F.
I would imagine it is possible to overdo it and reach the point of diminishing returns. Just like anything else.
I don’t know if 1000IU/week would be enough for you, I can’t say because that’s going to be based on your individual make up and biology and I’m not a doctor, I only play one on TV. The only way to know is to run it and get a semen analysis done. That said, 1000iu/week seems like a completely reasonable and conservative starting point.
It can raise your testosterone levels, but at a legitimately therapeutic dose probably not enough to drop your TRT. Assuming your TRT is also at a legit therapeutic dose.
I’ve noticed that 120mg/wk of test and 500iu 3x/wk, has a great effect on my libido and mood.
I’ve run test at 250-300mg/wk without HCG and noticed some testicular shrinkage. Came of test completely, used enclo and HCG to get the HPTA going again, had good semen parameters based on an analysis, but I felt like shit. Did that for about nine months before going back on TRT (at a legit TRT dose) with HCG, and noticed a big improvement in mood, performance in the gym, and my balls are nice and full.
My wife and I are trying to have another kid. God willing, when that happens I plan on dropping the HCG and nuking my nuts to oblivion.
