[QUOTE="_CTI_, post: 134304, member: 17534"] I know this is an old thread but I wanted to update it in case anyone was looking for information. I recently came across the study that nelson mentioned and had 17-ohp tested along with a few other things. My protocol when I tested was 12mg T IM / 150ui HCG DAILY. I was on this protocol for 5 weeks prior to testing. My 17-ohp came back today @ 15 ng/DL ref 27 - 199. if you convert that to nmol/L as in the referenced study you'll see that I came in @ 0.5201nmol/L. EXTREMELY LOW. It looks like in my case daily dose HCG does not produce the desired effect. These labs are a confirmation of symptoms that I've been experiencing, to include low (almost 0) libido, cognitive impairment, sleep disturbances, mild depression, low energy, and a few others. The kicker is that HCG does raise my E2 quite a bit but I have anastrozole on hand if necessary. I'm going to increase my HCG to 500iu EOD as the study suggests and retest in 3 weeks. I'll report back. [/QUOTE]
