Increase HCG from 250 iu to 500 iu ??

I`m taking Test C 500mg/wk for 12 wks

Started 250iu HCG 2x/wk on wk 3.

I am currently about to start wk 6 and it seems that my nuts may be somewhat smaller. Not much but it I`m pretty sure they are smaller.

Keep going with 250 iu or should I up it to 500 iu??

Amp it up to 500iu 2x's/wk for 2 the next two weeks and see if they re-inflate. Get the boys back up to snuff, then drop back down so as not to desensitize Leydig cells.

I started by cycle 3 weeks ago. Going to start HCG soon. How many IU is good to start with and should i keep going all the way through including PCT? Does it make a big difference for gains?

250-500 iu is my sweet spot too for keeping the nuts plump depending on how much test i run.

@ KV, I run it throughout cycle and upto the half life of whatever ester you're running but not through post cycle therapy (pct). Recovery is a breeze for me. I went years without running hcg throughout cycle and recovery was a bitch. hcg made all the difference for me in terms of recovery from cycle. It makes recovery easier for me and therefore helps with keeping what i earned on cycle.

I amped it up to 500 iu today and I took another look and yes my nuts have shrunk. Since this is my 1st cycle I know not what to expect and I thought that as long as you took 250 iu 2x/wk all would be good. Is this common to find your nuts shrink even on 250 iu?? Now I will take 500 iu for the next 2 weeks but what if they still dont re-inflate?? Go higher?
