When I added HCG to my TRT routine, I usually added 500iu per week (either 250iu 2x or 500iu). I worry about higher doses of HCG causing side effects due to an increase in DHT (baldness, increased body hair, ED, etc).
The doc is prescribing 2500iu 3x per week. That dose seems very high and I was planning on taking a lower dose based on info from the internet. I have not figured out the specifics of what dose I want to take.
I’ve been on TRT consistently for a little over 10 years due to hypogonadism. My dose is 200mg per week.
The wife and I are looking to start a family. I had an appointment with my endo about this and he told me to stop taking testosterone cypionate and he prescribed me HCG to take for three...
I am currently taking 200mg test cyp per week, in addition to taking .25mg anastrozole if needed once per week. This routine puts my testosterone and E2 in good ranges.
My labs from my last bloodwork:
Test: 703 (Range 264-914 ng/dl)
Estradiol: 22 (Range 7.6-46 pg/ml)
Estrone: 34 (Range 12-72...
I had an appointment with my endo today and discussed this with him. He said he hasn’t prescribed it for TRT before but was willing to let me add it to see if it improves libido/sex drive.
The prescription is for 25mg per day, but I am going to see if I can find more literature on the best ways...
I have tried other brands of HCG to see if that fixes the problem, and unfortunately it does not. I have no idea why I developed these adverse reactions to a medicine that worked wonders for me for years. It’s pretty frustrating.
As for finding a new endo; I’ve explored other endos around my...
I am unable to take HCG anymore. I've developed a weird resistance to it. Anytime I take it now, it doesn't do much for improving testicular atrophy or my sex drive, and it causes severe water retention. I had taken HCG as part of my TRT routine for years without any of these problems. It was a...
I saw my endo this week. I had discussed with him that my current routine was leaving me with an inconsisent sex drive. I am taking 200mg test per week, sometimes with .25mg anastrozole if I feel I need it.
I had blood work done a few weeks ago, this was six days after taking 200mg test and...
That’s actually pretty good advice. I had some viagra as well so maybe I can sub that for a little bit, or take a break altogether.
It drives me crazy that HCG no longer works for me without this bad water retention/bloat side effect. This is something that only started a few years ago. I took...
