Long-Term HCG Monotherapy Results
I've run HCG mono protocol numerous times including for an extended time during a fertility protocol (post vasectomy so was complicated and long duration). Always did daily injections 200ius gets me to 750/800 TT. Its superior to test in every way for me, i just don't feel good on exogenous T...- Andy2019

DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost
This was my point about adding the HCG. most of the commentary on here re HCG is that is only really raises estrogen. this is 100% not the case with me I get a major T boost. Its possible you are as well and mixed w cream it is shooting you to the moon. I'd be very concerned about prostate...- Andy2019

Yes brain fog and feel clouded also emotional flatness. Lots of info re HCG on threads here. Believe it has something to do with additional hormonal pathways that are shut down on TRT only. Also might have something to do with overall levels all things equal feel more intellectually fluid...- Andy2019

DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost
Minor adjustment but yes expect to feel something in some ways you might feel better i did mentally at least. I flushed a lot of weight out as longer T esters left system. SHBG raised a bit maybe 10pts. E2 stayed about same 28-30 but with lower TT of about 750 or 800 so my T:E ratio improved- Andy2019

DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost
I take HCG daily also have done various protocols. When doing alone (mono) i take 200iu HCG per day. That gets my TT levels to about 800. It feels very chill i drop all of my water weight from exogenous T head very clear zero sides just lacks a bit of the upside if that makes sense. Great...- Andy2019

DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost
I have not started any DHT products yet i just ordered the enenthate from 5ar so i cant comment on yet. Generally i feel flat when protocols level out libido energy etc. Propionate does not agree with me too sharp of swings and gives me a massive headache. Have not been able to figure out...- Andy2019

DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost
I think this is a great question. I've tried all the usual adjuncts (deca/oxandrolone/etc.) and like changing T protocols everything seems to feel great until it levels out. I like changing protocols every 3-6 months based on this. Occasionally doing an HCG mono protocol to give the body a...- Andy2019

For Those That Get Headaches on TRT
Thanks everyone for the replies! Nelson - did you figure this out just by trial and error of trying different meds or did you identify a period (i.e. post injection) where you BP spiked? Also was there some component of your protocol or certain hormone levels that caused this for you? I...- Andy2019

Super old thread but i am having the same issues. Specifically within an hour or two of injecting regardless of dose or frequency. Get a sharp headache in my forehead and sinuses and feels like those muscles tense up and can't be relaxed. Never happens with HCG though and spent significant...- Andy2019

DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost
Yes that was correct. I say "was" because i already pulled plug on Oxandrolone as part of protocol. Now 0 for 2 and will re evaluate. But yes, i have always been a low aromatizer. I get a big test bump out of HCG but both test and HCG provide about a 40:1 TT to E2 ratio. I've used DHEA...- Andy2019

I'm about 2 weeks into my trial. Feels like it has done exactly as intended with SHBG and free T. Has given me some additional mental energy but mild. I've been back on caffeine for a bit and have been able to reduce my intake to a single cup of green tea or two per day no coffee. Sore...- Andy2019

Interesting I've never heard of this, do you have a hypothesis of why this would be? I've seen a few anecdotes of the reverse adding iron helping. I'm glad that worked for you but I'm skeptical of adjusting this as my first move. these things can be very individualized and could be other...- Andy2019

Energy and libido flat; advice on protocol
Respectfully disagree. It might not give you big swinging balls, but for me 50iu EOD has pronounced mental effects mostly benefits, raises my e2 5-10pts at first then slowly comes back down, lubricates my joints, and subtlety effects libido and EQ.- Andy2019

Makes sense. The problem with this for me is sometimes side effects of e2 being too high vs test being too high gets muddy. I used to think all side effects were from e2 because I got brainwashed by bad material but think most were due to test being too high when i was on a larger weekly dose...- Andy2019

Thanks for replying. So i have tried prop daily and 50/50 prop/enanthate daily. Neither i really liked i felt like i woke up low t every day and the results felt inconsistent.

Appreciate the response, and your content on the forum in general. PS another meat and fruit (AB) guy here...

Been on TRT for about 2 years. Diet very clean do not drink, smoke, or consume caffeine. Very active. Have tried a lot but not everything.

Anyone have this and have any success stories/remedies? I myself find antivirals do not really work and have tried monolaurin, XXX, PEMF, probably some other stuff.
