My protocol is as you said 100 T Cypionate once a week and 500iu HCG EOD or 250iu ED no AI. This protocol is recent and my next labs are at the end of this month. Then I’ll know exactly what my numbers are and I can let you know. I also take 5mg Cialis Daily. Yes, I experienced testicular...

What happens when you stop HCG though?

When I travel for three months my problem isn’t carrying my T Cypionate but my pharmacist honoring a three month supply of the same. I’m in Mexico now for a month and traveled with my T Cypionate and HCG . No problems with the TSA whatsoever. I have traveled with t Cypionate various times before...

Yes, pretty cool

I live in Massachusetts too, Natick to be exact.

That’s excellent though. I do hear that in some instances men don’t suffer testicular atrophy at all and that’s why my Dr wanted to wait and see before prescribing HCG. While I was off TRT for three months and no HCG my testicles looked normal but my semen was viscous, transparent and odorless...

Unfortunately it happened to me and I hated the look let alone the dull pain I got from the atrophy especially at night.

I’m rethinking the whole thing indeed... but I know I can get off TRT and not feel lousy at all. I didn’t use Clomid as my doctor advise me not to because of the sides. I’ve been back on TRT only for four weeks with the addition of HCG and Cialis daily. When I drop the T and hcg I will keep...

I restarted TRT because of the interruption only. No, I never felt bad at all at any point. I just thought I should give it a try since I was very briefly on TRT.

I had read about that protocol when men are coming off TRT for good. Are you?

Why did you drop the HCG and start Clomid?

Two male and one female doctors in one clinic. They treat men issues, fertility, etc. My PCP gave me a referral to comply with my health insurance policy. Yes, everything is under the same insurance. BTW this clinic also sees women

314 (300-1000) and a bundle of symptoms

Have you tried seeing a urologist instead of an endo? Mine is an excellent urologist. I have great health insurance and it covers my T and labs.

I agree. It’s a significant difference. I stopped cold turkey and no issues. However, if testosterone is used for something besides TRT at super physiological amounts, yes, T will become addictive since the need for bulking it’s a greater than safety. There might be cases in which TRT isn’t...

My doctor was explaining to me that one of the reasons testosterone is a controlled substance it’s because of its addictive property. Or rather the dependency men develop. Addiction would be more like I take 100mg and later I need 200mg and so on.

What’s addictive? Sorry, I missed something

I inject 500iu EOD of Pregnyl brand HCG. I’ve been on this protocol 5 weeks so far and I like the HCG. It has agreed with me. However, I inject 100mg cypionate once a week. Before HCG I was injecting 140 mg once a week and my trough was at 700 seven days later (the day of my next injection). So...

It is more affordable indeed. If you have a Costco pharmacy close to you, cash prices are excellent. If your doctor prescribes it for BPH you have a good chance to have it covered by your health insurance. You can always use GoodRx coupons which offers good prices too but they vary from pharmacy...

Concerning your ed, have you tried cialis daily (5mg)? It seems to be working for me pretty well so far (4 weeks).

What happens to the HPTA? Will it shut down or not at large doses? That’s the piece I fail to understand because that would make a huge difference in what one chooses to improve testosterone levels. At least for me

Basically yes. However , it can be used to increase your testosterone levels instead of TRT. I mean fertility might be a reason but not always. Some men don’t like TRT because it causes testicular atrophy hence they choose HCG monotherapy but the doses are much higher than when HCG is combined...

How can you tell HPTA started functioning again? I’m curious about indicators

In the US, generic Viagra is inexpensive for 100mg tablets. If you want a pde5 inhibitor as needed perhaps you should give it a try if you haven’t. However, I’m sure you’ll be asked to provide a script from a doctor but the cost is a lot less. I think you guys have Costco Pharmacy in Canada...

Is your doctor a psychiatrist? PCPs aren’t very inclined to prescribe a good treatment for anxiety which might include a combination of antidepressants and anti anxiety medicines.

I strongly recommend Cialis Daily (5mg) which a lot of men on this forum use including me. It has a very good reputation among men who share their anecdotes here and when it is combined with exogenous testosterone (search for “Cialis daily”) My protocol includes also HCG. I happen to like...

Has anything changed concerning HCG and Nelson’s viewpoint on the same? I mean either anecdotally or research wise.

Thank you

Would I be considered to be leaning toward becoming a high SHBG guy per labs range?

Maybe. The whole thing is that HCG is supposed to reverse what’s been caused by exogenous T. I was only 12 weeks on Cypionate, took 3 months off, restart TRT with HCG and I noticed these changes.

Likewise. My semen volume has decreased on HCG. The consistency got thicker as it had become like water though I was expecting a lot more volume or at least what it used to be before TRT. I use pregnyl.
