IMO, you need to go longer on your test cycle. IMO, you should go 14 weeks.
Yes, I would add HCG to your cycle.

Good luck

You will have some say yes, some say no brother. Myself I didn't use HCG for my first few cycles. With a simple post cycle therapy (pct) of toremifene only I never had any problems with smooth recovery. As smooth as post cycle therapy (pct) can be I suppose. I do not like clomid, nor do I like nolva. I also am a fan of holding off on the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) until you have confirmed on cycle that you need it. You can do this most effectively by checking out your bloodwork on cycle. However, there are other indicators of course.

Well, my first few cycles were stupid and I let myself get led astray by people I thought knew what they were doing. My first REAL cycle went great and my post cycle therapy (pct) was fine. I had no issues during post cycle therapy (pct). And a few weeks after I finished post cycle therapy (pct) my test levels had recovered to nearly what they were before that cycle. I've never had a particularly bad post cycle therapy (pct).
