Thanks Dr. Saya! She did mention about FSH when I inquired about alternatives but insist that I continue with the same dosage of HCG for another 3 months. May I also tap into your expertise for another questions? Will adding back another 100 - 200mg weekly of testosterone cypionate affect my...

Thanks Vince. My doctor insist on HCG mono-therapy with her reason being testosterone injections will cease my sperm production. With the amount I am paying for HCG, I wouldn't want it to not work!

Hi Guys It has been 4 months since I stopped TRT (200mg Test Cyp weekly) and switched to HCG 1500iu (Ovidrel) X every other day = approx. 4500iu - 6000iu weekly. Aside from that, I am also on 100mg T4 daily. Just ran my sperm count, total Test and T4/TSH panel with the following results:-...

Lucky you James; i had tried various dosages and brands of melatonin but they never work like it did on you.

Thanks Vince. I have been actively massaging the scar tissue and since I am off test cyp for half a year, the spots have been slowly dissipating.

Thanks Vince! I previously did IM for test cyp via my delts and there are permanent scars tissues after couple of years.

Quick question, I do it sub-Q belly fat only (once every other day) and wonder if repeatedly injecting the same site damages it?

Hey Phillies That is a lot of effort! Ready to eat natto are cheap here where i am based so its pretty convenience. Not too sure of the benefits though, as I do not feel any difference before and after incorporating Vitamin K into my diet.

I use the same Life Extension supplement too; aside from that, I try to go out under the sun and consume natto for vitamin K(fermented japanese soy beans); anyway, I am in Asia so not too sure if you have access.

Hi Fellow Members I've been running 1500iu HCG monotherapy X 3 times a week for almost 2 months and did my blood work earlier this week with the following results:- 1) Total Test: 23 nmol / L 2) Free Test: 66.2 pmol / L 2) Estradiol: 96 pmol /L My doctor reckons that I continue the same...

Congrats HealthMan! Glad to know of the positive results, I am 6 weeks into my protocol and encouraged by your experience.

Hi ohsnap Aside from the sensitive nipples and puffiness, do you feel any other side effects? I am curious about your situation as my protocol is 1500iu HCG X 3 times weekly (much higher than yours) for approximately 6 weeks now and am due for bloodwork next week. Physically, my nipples are...

1500iu HCG X 3 times weekly; just switched to this mono-therapy for 6 weeks with blood work due next week.

The rest of your panel looks fine, what were the symptoms which made you run the bloodwork?

Please consult a qualified endocrinology doctor bro!

Hi Gokk Why the T3 to your TRT+HCG protocol? Your thyroid seems to be functioning well. I have really low T4 and low TSH (doc only put me on 50mg T4 daily) and recently switched to HCG-mono therapy (5th week now) and have yet to run new bloodwork (scheduled in another 3 weeks' time). Would...

Thanks for your insights and well wishes, Lebo :) I had just done my groundwork and understood the rationale behind the protocol by Nelson. Onto my HCG prescription, its a rather high dose of 3 X 1500iu (Total 4500iu) weekly; I guess (anyone please correct me!) its due my doctor's intentions to...

Great that you shared your story! I am hypo-gonadal and was on TRT for nearly 3 years and just switched (started this monday) to HCG mono-theraphy to restore fertility with hopes to start a family. I shared my protocol via this forum and another member (who was a Dr) reckon that I should be on...

Thanks Dr Justin. Having read your reply, I had been googling Clomid vs HCG but do not really understand all the various reviews. Many protocols recommend being on both before tapering out the HCG. Are you able to share more why doctors prescribe HCG vs Clomid?

Thanks Weasel; I shall narrow it down to Total and Free Test alongside E2. Already embarked on the 3 X 1500iu HCG weekly monotherapy schedule; hope my testosterone levels wouldn't crash without my usual 200mg of test cyp. per week.

Hi Dafoe & Vince Carter Thanks for the inputs and I will keep a lookout for estrogen levels. Which other markers do you reckon I should also track? I have the following in mind:- 1) Total Test 2) Free Test 3) FSH 4) LH 5) E2 Anymore?

Thanks Vince, always appreciate your insights and the constant guidance you had provided me since day 1. However, I struggled with rock-bottom testosterone levels for years before TRT improved my life; just don't want to return to those negative days in pursue of the possibility of having a...

Dear Fellow Excelmales Having been on TRT (test cyp - 200mg weekly) for nearly 3 years, I ran a sperm count and the results were ZERO. Been seeking high and low but none of the doctors (based in Singapore) endorse the TRT + HCG protocol, despite my relentless effort to share /educate with them...

Hi ERO Have you got your 24hour cortisol levels checked to confirm this? I might be facing similar issues and have been managing the night wakings by getting out of bed and having a small meal (less than 300kcal) then falling back asleep (i wonder if its the slight release of insulin or...

Hi HealthMan I am sorry to hear about the unexpected negative results. May I clarify on the schedules of your protocol? You were zero count while on TRT alone (duration?) before switching to testosterone cypionate (70mg 2x a week) and HCG (400 IU 2x a week) for 9 weeks which raised counts to...

Hi Both I am on both TRT and T4 (yes, its useless but my doctor insist I only use T4 and not T3); it seems that the two treatments do not affect each other. I have been struggling with sleep for years (more than 5 years) but had only been on TRT for 3 years and T4 for less than 2 months. No...

Any updates on the Phosphatidyl Serine? I am a fellow sufferer and immune to sleep meds too!

Have you tried the recommended protocol? I have been suffering from insomnia for close to 5 years now and hardly sleep more than 90mins per cycle. Having got used to it, I just get up and either chill or eat a small meal etc. before returning to the bed for another cycle. Typically accumulates...

I opted out of this drug even though my doctor recommends it; hair-loss is the main issue after TRT however I refrained from it and stuck with Minoxidil, which seems less effective by the day. Might be turning to finasteride soon... (Been influenced by Dave Palumbo of RX Muscle)

My appointment's coming up so I will print out the relevant journals to support my claims. I really appreciate your insights Vince, thanks!

Thanks HealthMan, wish you all the very best!
