HCG injection frequency when injecting T daily?

TMI

New Member
My protocol is T and HCG (and anastrozole) every 3.5 days. If I were switched to a more frequent T injection schedule (e.g., daily), would there be any benefit to also dosing HCG daily? Or would staying at twice weekly be satisfactory?
 
HCG is all over the map, 100iu works for some people. I don't think it matters, there's everything under the sun going on with HCG and dosing and frequency. I use 200iu E3.5D with daily Cyp.
 
Drawing a little hCG first then top loading cyp insures no cyp is wasted. The hCG will act as a flush. If I were pinning cyp daily it would always be with hCG. Personally I have not found E3.5D adequate for hCG.
 
After 6 months of trt, I think I've finally been able to get my estrogen under control once I went to every day injections. I'm barely using any arimidex. I'm now contemplating on having a talk with my doc about adding hcg, although I'm hesitant due aromitizing in my testes- I'm very sensitive even too every 3.5 day injections.

After 6 months, I'm still fatigued, I feel like something is missing. Not too mention my strength gains aren't going up, although maybe it's due to my estrogen being too low. We shall see

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
