HCG alone for a 60yr old male?

[JoltinJoe]

My dad is getting ready to start taking Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) as a means to help increase test levels. Does this type of treatment work and if so what should i know so i can help him the best?

Hi Joe! Nothing you want to do long term, in the short term it will raise T levels though

He is looking at 500iu eod for 3 weeks on 3 weeks off...is that reasonable?

Let me be more clear than I was above Joe . What I am saying is that Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) as a stand alone treatment over the long haul for the purpose of raising test levels is a bad idea. It has it's place in testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to help maintain some testicular function and size. It also has a place in with using AAS and in helping speed recovery on that front.

At 60 his best bet, assuming he has compromised T-levels, is going to be to get put on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and monitored as he goes with blood work by a professional.

much appreciated, i showed him the Maximus Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) site and he is going to look into it.

He could also contact his family doctor and be tested for low T symptoms.

The problem with Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) as a stand alone is it will cause estro conversion and temporarily raise T levels.
