I have been taking 100mg a week for around 2 years now for low t caused by chronic pain meds. I'm 38 and would consider it a blessing if I could have one more child, so I've started taking hcg 500iu three times a week for a month and 2 weeks and don't feel my testicals growing of the tingling in my lower stomach like when I've felt in the past as the testicals start working again. So my question is did I kill my balls or is there a way to jump start these things? Thanks in advance
Hcg ?

500 IU three times per week is usually enough to restore testicular size (not grown them beyond what you used to have before you started testosterone). Have you got a sperm quality test done?

Usually response is age related as it equates to the number of receptors on the leydig cells.
Younger guys tend to respond faster and older guys a little longer...give it some time.
BTW, this is pharmacy grade HCG...correct?

Yea I was the guy that was asking Nelson on FB about dosage and you came on and said to look over here. I put the water in slowly not to disrupt the powder much and don't shake it but move it in circles to mix it up, and of course it's in the fridge waiting for me every other day. I hope this is the right way and thanks for your thoughts on the matter

How much bac water did you add to the 10000 unit vial?
How many units are you injecting?
I ask because if you diluted the HCG by adding too much bac water than the dosage you are injecting may not be potent enough to be effective.
It's not uncommon for new guys to make mistakes reconstituting HCG and adding too much bac water...it happens.

Here:
Reconstituting 10,000IU's of hCG
Use a larger bore (i.e., 18g) needle, and transfer your bacteriostatic water into the vial with the freeze dried hCG powder. You want to inject until you have added a total of 4ml's of solution. Keep the powder and vial upright because you can blow the hCG out of it when you pull the needle out of the vial. Otherwise be sure to draw air out after you push the water in to release pressure each time. Also, make sure to hold the plunger of the syringe when you first penetrate the vial as there is a vacuum inside the vial and it will want to pull the plunger down at an accelerated rate and you don't want that to happen.
When completed, gently swirl the vial to mix. Keep in the refrigerator once reconstituted. It will keep its potency for 60 to 90 days.
When using an insulin syringe, each unit (line) on the scale of the syringe equals 25IU's of hCG. 250IU's of hCG is then 10 units on the side of the insulin syringe.

Do you live in the US? We are about to launch a free (one time) vial of HCG program by prescription. We will be able to provide referrals to doctors who prescribe.

This is correct...I just use less bac water which means smaller but more potent injections.

Tell her if she doesn't shred her ignorance and read what you provided so she can learn to care for you correctly, you'll fire her and fine someone who will.
She's not the one having to walk around with shrunken and aching balls!!!

The way you reconstituted it and the dose you are injecting is correct.
10ml of bac water into a 10000 unit vial you'd want to pull back to the 50 mark (half way on a 1 ML syringe) to get 500 IU.
I just use less water for a smaller injection.

Yes, testosterone replacement will inhibit testicular function if used alone since it shuts down LH and FSH due to a feed back loop. However, HCG is a LH analog that "replaces" the shutdown LH to keep Leydig cells plump and functioning, thus reversing and preventing testicular atrophy. Dr Lipshultz' team in Houston went as far as proving that TRT+ HCG was able to maintain fertility in men even with shut down FSH (FSH is responsible for sperm production). The theory is that HCG maintains healthy intratesticular testosterone needed for sperm production even in the absence of FSH. Pretty neat stuff!
