[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 153178, member: 18023"] What you are asking for is anecdotal information, which is less than useful. Men come to TRT because they are deficient in testosterone. Why are they deficient varies all over the place, from having only 1 testicle, testicle damage, old age, viral diseases, naturally low T, previsions steroid abuse, genetic problems, etc, etc. So their response to HCG will also vary all over the place. If someone has a problem with their testicles, perhaps they don't respond to HCG in the same way as someone that is just low on total T? HCG is NOT LH. "The shorter half-life of LH is physiologically important, as it allows for the production of LH pulses. The longer half-life of hCG and its greater receptor binding affinity make it more biologically active than hLH. The longer half-life of hCG and its greater receptor binding affinity make it more biologically active than hLH." [URL="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0303720713005248"]Luteinizing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropin: Origins of difference - ScienceDirect[/URL] It' often said we have many LH receptors in many places, not mentioned in this article from Peak T is the prostate also has LH receptors. If you read this article from peak T about other LH receptors, you see the following "Interestingly enough, what has been confirmed in men, women and animals is that high luteinizing hormone is hard on memory. " "So clearly HCG and LH can increase cortisol through activity on the adrenal gland. " The article speculates that if high LH definitively causes these problems, will low LH cause the opposite problem? No one knows. And what is the opposite of hard on memory? One thing that concerns me it the greater binding affinity of HCG Vs lh.
