I don't know if the expiration date will still be valid. But I don't see why it would be necessary to transfer to a vial. I would keep each Pen separately and avoid tampering. On the other hand, the Pen is also a vial with its rubber cap, if it were so necessary to put all the content together...
I used to preload 0.2 tenths (260 IU) in 3 tenths insulin syringes to be administered twice a week, with this, an ovitrelle pen would give me 25 doses, almost always more, about 27 doses, I keep the syringes in the refrigerator, and they last 3 months till the last one. I never noticed that they...
It is supposed to be stored in the fridge but not frozen. Even while on transportation, temperature must be below 8ºC.
I don't know how long it could last at warmer temperature, but I would not take the risk.
Ovitrelle needs to be stored in fridge.
There is no need to mix it with anything.
Just buy 0.3 ml insulin syringes, and withdraw the desired dose directly from the pen as it were a vial.
I Agree.
I don't see why enclomiphene alone would be superior to clomiphene in terms of symptomatic improvement, (something that has not been proven and is not an experience that many can report). estrogens are necessary for men as well, and a pure antagonist could only generate deficiency...
I was married for 30 years. I never went to know other woman while married. Didn't need either, I loved mi wife. Now I am with the second woman I have ever had, I am happy with her and we love each other so deep I don't need more.
You won't like to see your testicles shrinking. For me hcg 250 IU twice weekly was enough to prevent testicular atrophy and keep some (sub-fertile) level of sperm production, so no zero sperm count. It is good to know your testicles still keep working although at low speed.
I am father of two...
HCG drops my libido and give me ED even if I keep me E2 under control. So it is not only related to E2 levels, but I have not found informations what else could be the reason ather than E2. I am on HCG for fertility, my wife not getting pregnant yet, and I have very low libido, 2.5 mg of cialis...
Ok Vince, I respect your point, but if I ever suspect my wife is using her imagination and fantasy with another man to enjoy sex with me, that would be catastrophic...., I would end the relationship at that right moment, and as @Systemlord said, If I need to think of another woman, then I am...
Completely agree. Whenever I have used my imagination to have sex it is because I am lacking something. At present, even If I am low of something, I can't use imagination, because I am so fortunate my reality with my young wife's beauty and sexual behaving is beyond anything I could imagine and...
I had a bad experience with SubQ: after 3 months on SubQ (only 87.5mg/wk): lower TT, higher E2, lower libido, high PB. Shallow IM fixed that. For me it's more comfortable than SubQ, I could do Shallow IM daily if I needed to.
In Spain we don't have HCG either.
In its place is Ovitrelle, which is recombinant HCG, similar to Ovidrel.
It comes pen with 0.5 ml, which contains the equivalent of 6500 IU of HCG. The price is 50 euros per Pen.
In my opinion it is a very convenient and purified substitute for HCG.
I use doses...

"My strategy was to use hCG at 125 iu’s 3 days in a row every 21 days. As you can see this strategy worked perfectly well.."
That's what Jay Campbell says about HCG dosing for fertility... It does not make...
Yes, that's the question I was asking myself.
There is a paper from 1987 with similar aproach and it was 1500 IU:

Gonadotropin Therapy Once a Week for Spermatogenesis in Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism
From the above article, it seems once a week hcg injection for spermatogenesis may be as effective than more frequent injections..
The idea is to have a minimum steady state level from which I will never drop and I will never have hypogonadal symptoms... that's with undecanoate. Then the bonus with cypionate is to have a range of variation throughout the week that makes me feel a stronger libido and erectil function that...
Never the same injection, but always the same day, sundays. I use shallow IM for both, in deltoids or thighs, almost painless or actually painless, never lumps, bruises or anything, so I prefer let them go separately.
When I went to nebido only, I used 0.8 ml (200 mg) every two weeks and I had been one year previouly with 0.6 every two weeks, with a previous frontload of 500 mg
I did not mix them in the same injection. I was splitting the Reandron (nebido) 0.6 ml (150 mg) every two weeks, the idea was to...
Speaking of mixed esters: For about a year in 2019, my protocol was Testosterone Undecanoate (Reandron 1000mg/4ml, Nebido in the US), 150mg every 14 days, (75mg a week), and Testosterone Cypionate 25mg once a week, that's a total of 100mg a week and it worked great all round. One day I asked...
Being 54 years old, it will soon be two years since I am with a woman who is 24 years younger than me.
She is a beauty of a woman, both for her face and for her body and her intelligence. She is simply the dream of any man, that has come to be fulfilled in my life after I had andropause and was...
For about a year and a half now I have been using different dosages of HCG. It is interesting that when I tried HCG monotherapy at 500 iu EOD, my total testosterone was 585 ng/dl and E2 was 37 pg/ml, then I switched to 1000 iu EOD but total testosterone dropped to 465 ng/dl and E2 increased to...
What I get from HCG is putting my testicles to work, and certainly a better sense of well-being, but never better libido. It worsens my libido and even makes me need more tadalafil or sildenafil.
Also, having very stable levels of testosterone makes me feel mentally flat and low on libido...
That's for restarting hpta, not for fertility. For me, a single 100mcg triptorelin injection temporarily increased my hormones, but I couldn't keep the levels up on my own...
@Johnny Test
Why do you ask that question? Have you heard of the use of triptorelin microdosing for male fertility? I have been doing research on this, but little reliable information can be found, so the available information has to be extrapolated to apply to male infertility.
First of all, I...
Definitely yes. I think you have been on testosterone for a long time and without HCG, the testicles stopped working for a long time and atrophied, it is very difficult to recover it, if you really can. So if you want fertility, your case is not like using a condom when you don't want to have...
Yes, it is a given. If you replace your own production of testosterone by exogenous, you supress LH and FSH then your testicles stop producing testosterone and sperm count may even go to zero. The depth of that suppression is proportional to the T dose.
There are newer forms of exogenous T that...
