Hi all. I have been blasting and cruising for about 3-4 years now with the use of HCG. I am 26yo. Unfortunately, HCG had stopped working and my balls continued to atrophy during both blasts and cruises.
Fertility is now a goal and my last sperm test came back to about 1mil. So i decided to come off after all these years and this has happened:
I attempted a "Power PCT" with the following results

FSH: L 1.1 IU/L ( 1.5 - 9.7 )
LH L 0.3 IU/L ( 1.8 - 9.2 )
Prolactin (Total) 242 mIU/L ( 90 - 400 )
Oestradiol 95 pmol/L ( <160 )
Testosterone 21.5 nmol/L ( 12.0 - 31.9 )
SHBG 45 nmol/L ( 17 - 56 )
Free Test (VC) 380 pmol/L ( 260 - 740)

Also note that Tren had not been in my system for over 6 months, So I cannot explain the high prolactin in the second test.

This showed that I was not primary which was good. Balls had started to slowly increase in size (but nothing major), so I decided to come off HCG and transition into Nolva/Clomid. As soon as the HCG cleared the system, my balls had atrophied again. I waited for about 2 weeks but no improvement, so I jumped back on the HCG at 1000iu/week.

I did another test (with a few extras, 1 month later) a few shots in with the following results:
Free thyroxine (FT4) 19.1 pmol/L 9.0 - 25.0
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone 1.35 mIU/L 0.50 - 5.00
Free Tri-iodothyronine (FT3) 6.1 pmol/L 3.5 - 6.5
Follicle Stimulating Hormone 2 IU/L (1 - 8)
* Luteinizing Hormone 1 IU/L (2 - 8)
Oestradiol 94 pmol/L (< 150)
* Prolactin (mIU/L) 403 mIU/L (45 - 375)
Testosterone 16.8 nmol/L 6.0 - 28.0
5D 39 nmol/L 15 - 50
Free Testosterone 317 pmol/L 200 - 600

I saw that my prolactin had increased, so it's now day 7 of taking Caber 0.5mg E3D along with 12.5mg Aromasin E3D. Balls are still atrophied and semen volume is very low. Could this have been the reason why SERMS were not working during my first restart attempt?

Knowing that I am not primary from the first test, could there be any other factors stopping HCG to bring me to the high/high-normal range?

Would love some feedback as I am very lost.
 
great details you have added BUT you say you have been blasting and cruising... can you please say what dosages and what you have been blasting and cruising with?
 
Thank you for your prompt response.

Mainly low test (200mg) generally in E or C and Tren E ranging from 200-400mg.
Never have been a big believer of high dosages as i had reached 117kg 9% bf with small dosages. Height is 6'6. Unfortunately none of these stats help my balls lol :(
