[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 138501, member: 15043"] Whether HCG increases T or not is dependent on the individual, and the brand of HCG. For instance, on Pregnyl HCG, 1000iu’s per week added around 600 points to my total T. While on the same dose of compounded HCG from Empower, my total T is unaffected, as far as I can tell. My leydig cells either stopped responding to HCG, or Empower’s HCG just doesn’t add anything to my total T number. I’ve tried 2 other brands of HCG from compounding pharmacies, and they both raised my total T extremely poorly, compared to Pregnyl. They both also added different amounts to my total T, so there was no consistency between them, while on the same dose. So in my experience, brand matters. I have a lot of respect for Coastwatcher, but to say 100% that total T is going to be unaffected by HCG is just not accurate. On HCG monotherapy, my LH and FSH were zero, and my total T was 1200. So obviously HCG can raise total T. It should have no effect on HCT. HCT will only raise if total/ free T raises. [/QUOTE]
