    HCG & HMG Dose Prior to Semen Analysis

    The long awaited time is here where I’m getting a Semen analysis next week in preparation for IVF. Wondering if maybe I should do a little extra hCG and HMG a day or two before it. What do you guys think? If everything looks good, I’ll go back in and freeze it and then I’m off of these drugs...

    TRT as Birth Control: Semen Analysis Results

    It seems like most guys that perform semen analysis on TRT are taking things like hCG and FSH in order restore their fertility. I'm curious about the opposite: has anyone on TRT without hCG performed semen analysis in order to confirm their infertile status? I know people caution against...

    Semen analysis results 125 daily HCG 4 months while on Test

    Not impossible to get someone pregnant , but very low concentration. 1.45 mil , with minimum recommendation 15 mil. I would probably need to try a more aggressive approach say 500iu EOD. What do you guys think here?

    Semen analysis results after adding FSH to TRT and hCG

    So after 6 months of adding FSH to my TRT protocol I got a sperm analysis done. A quick background. My fertility was normal before TRT and went to zero when I started TRT without HCG. Adding HCG 500 IU 2x a week my sperm analysis results were: sperm count 2.1mm (normal >=20mm) total sperm 7.2mm...

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
