I am doing some HRT shopping around and it seems harder to find places that will let you NOT take hcg.
I personally don't care if my nuts get a little smaller and I can't have any kids (already snipped)
Any thoughts ?
Anybody NOT doing HCG with there TRT program?
I don't use HCG but I wouldn't mind using it. In your situation I would think you would be fine without it. I'd still like to have kids one day and I like having normal size balls lol.
You can ask that question to 20 people and get a 50/50 either way. I stopped when the price went up at the pharmacy to $180 for 10,000 IU. fuck that. I dont do HCG from anything but a real script and filled at a pharmacy. Thats my choice though.
I did the first of many yrs on hrt without.hcg....i cannot recover so i didnt see the value in it..onlynover the last few yrs have i used it on a regular basis.....mainly cause my gf at the time(now wife)would ask me why my balls where so small.or gone...lol...honest answer..
I don't really see a value in HCG I mean really with me I stick to the good stuff personally
I am currently using supertest and for my post I am using nolvadex once my cycle is over
that's my formula for success I try to stack winnie with that also for an added boost too
HCG during TRT is normally dependent on what the LH/FSH/LSH read and how the pituitary is producing. I get it mixed at the endocrinologist and use 250 IU twice a week. But the HCG script is contingent on if the pituitary is talking to "the boys" are not. And some weeks--with bloods-- I don't need it. And that's at 300 mg of test depot a week.....
I say keep you balls dude it's worth the money. Here is a way to save money just use test from the HRT clinic the order you HCG from a place like reliablerxpharmacy you can get 10,000iu hcg for $26. Order like 10 bottles of it and you will be good for a long time. At least do 500iu /week and your balls will stay the same size or experiment and use a little less or a little more and see how they are. Who wants to have small little balls of collagen in their sack, women don't find it very attrictive at the very least.
But at least that way you don't have to spend 100-120 per 10,000iu
Yeah i am starting to see how important it can be.
I used HcG during my first 6 months of TRT and it caused major libido issues. I have since been switched to clomid @ 50mg a week. I would like to drop that dose down to around 30 because it really affects you mentally. Now the boys are always saggin...
If u r on TRT for life I would not bother with HCG unless u r trying to have kids.
It is not really needed unless you want your guys to work properly and have some size to them..I started TRT about 3 months ago and have just started seeing some shrinkage but I am married, 41 and do not plan on having kids.....
How is your libido without HCG?
If that question was directed to me, its fine now. No issues at all.Quote:

I might hit my Dr up about a script for HCG if I can get it so cheaply
Hcg is very helpful because your testes are responsible for making other hormones other than just testosterone. I think its best to use it just incase you ever need to stop trt. It will make recovery much easier.
I have noticed my sex drive is getting lower....I might also have to consider HCG....I do not remember seeing that on all my last lab work?? I wonder if that was checked???Quote:

If something ever happened finically and I could not afford my meds or loss of insurance, I want the chance no matter how remote it might be. And that is while I have enough HCG, clomid, nolvadex, arimidex and 100mcg triptorelin stored away to run a very long PCT it ever the need arises.
On a side note what happens if zombies start taking over and you can?t get your meds? At least then you can grab you PCT meds and head for the hills. :paddle:
Even after years of testicular shutdown your testes can still be revived.
It is pretty good...Better than what it was before TRT....I am also on adex to keep e2 down to normal range..Quote:
