Thread: hcg necessary?

It should be ran the whole cycle at 500 iu twice weekly, and then blasted at 1000 iu eod for the 2 weeks that the test clears your system. It shouldn't be run during pct, it's suppressive.
Do people do it without it? of course, but it's a matter if you want to do things the optimal way or the half assed way?

Necessary, no. Should you? Yes. I didn't run it for my first cycle and recovery was a bitch. Im going to run it from now on. For what is costs, run it in the format that exphysiologist laid out for you. Good luck

its best to keep the balls 'awake' as it aids recovery in the long run

^^^ this.... Also if your boys have gone the way of peanuts, using it would be best to make sure they wake back up and grow back to normal size.

personally I run 250 iu ED on cycle following Dr. Swale's protocol and I recover EXTREMELY fast and don't need to take as much time off.

I recovered way faster with it too, I'll never do another cycle without. Did 500 twice weekly for mine but thinking of doing 250ed since I'll be pinning GH ed anyway. I do have a bit of gyno I'd like to not flare up though. Would 250 ed be worse on the gyno han 500e3d?
