I would postpone. Also, if you want upstream hormones to come up low on blood tests, stay only on TRT. Stop hCG, pregnenolone, and DHEA and wait at least 4 weeks to get the blood tests.

Are you only taking 500 IU hCG alone twice per week? That's not enough to bring T up above 400 ng/dL. What was your goal when starting? Treating low T, low sperm? Please explain.

You are welcome. So tired of seeing guys online oversimplifying things without considering what data actually shows.

I am lucky to have my mom’s genes and have pretty good lipids. My partner is taking Repatha injections every two weeks since he had side effects on statins. It’s amazing what that drug can do with no side effects. Insurance companies won’t pay unless you did not respond well to statins.

Wow. I hope the deaths had nothing to do with the treatment.

HMG is very expensive and hard to get. I would increase hCG to 3000 IU every other day plus TRT, or bring in clomiphene or enclomiphene at 25 mg/day plus hcg 1500 UI every other day. I may even get off TRT for a while. Also keep in mind these supplements...

Thank you.
