HCG mono treatment

I have been using HCG 500 iu's every other day without testosterone for the past 4 months now . I feel great but am worried if there is anything wrong with this protocol long terms and if there any studies or users that have only relied on HCG mono.
Please assist

HCG will increase your testosterone while keeping your testicles working, but it really acts like testosterone therapy. Its use shuts down LH and FSH. When you stop HCG you may or may not return back to old levels. I think it is not a bad idea to use 500 IU every other day.
 
Only half the testicles are functional on HCG. If you feel great on this protocol, then great, continue on until that's no longer the case.

If at any point in the future HCG stops working, then it's time to move over to TRT. Your testicles aren't going to function optimally forever.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

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.
