HCG Monotherapy vs HCG + TRT for Fertility

Is there any reason why should I not add TRT to my HCG monotherapy for fertility? I am secondary and was advised by fertility doctors to stay away from TRT. But consensus seem to be that TRT + HCG should not impair fertility so just looking for good of bad experiences. I was also expecting improvement in libido/energy with HCG and so far no good after 1.5 weeks.

Are we reading the same forum? haha
I don't believe TRT is for fertility. In fact I believe it shutsdown your ball so no T and no sperm. There might be a few cases out there where supplementing T might help I don't know I have only been involved with TRT for about 10 months. I'm pretty sure the guys here posting +1000 TT and raging libidos are as sterile as Eunuchs'
YMMV
 
I should have added that I am also struggling with low T, low libido and low energy. So tried clomid already and di not work for symptoms. Starting HCG but does not seem like it will improve my symptoms much. But yeah I am being cautious about adding TRT.
 
I'm puzzled. Did your doctors explain that HCG, as an adjunctive medication during the course of a TRT protocol, has an excellent chance of maintaining your testicular vitality? Dr. Saya, Defy's medical director, has written of patients who impregnated their partners while on testosterone and HCG. It can be done, but a doctor who understands this field is a critical asset.
 
well that is where I am a little lost... I have read Dr. Saya take on this and seems like it is safe to be on TRT + HCG for fertility... but traditional doctors in my area as soon as you mention TRT it is like if it was suicide from a fertility standpoint. So I am trying to look for another doctor who supports this protocol.

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.
