[QUOTE="Re-Ride, post: 61143, member: 8395"] I'm clear on what Harshad is asking. This is a very good question. Whether it is internet myth or fact many do harbor a belief that hCG is less refractory to the axis. hCG is often used in PCT restart. It is used to stimulate the Leydigs not the pituitary. We know that axis shut down is a complicated business. Certain AAS are much harder on the axis than others. hCG is not an AAS. If I were to guess, and that'ts all I can do, I'd say re-start is likely easier coming off hCG than an AAS but I don't know why. Most here who start hCG mono do not attempt any restart they progress to TRT. Looking back on my own experience there was no discussion of the axis nor a concept of restart in the 80's when I was first put on hCG briefly. I did recover somewhat naturally. Then again just before starting here I made a partial spontaneous recovery from gel (no hCG). If I could do it over I would have tried a proper re-start following my initial very positive resent results with hCG mono. But again this was never discussed. Had it been I would have had anecdotal fb for you but I don't. [/QUOTE]
