[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 177674, member: 15043"] Great questions. Not sure if progesterone can be increased without test being increased. Ime, no. When I was on Pregnyl, at 1000iu’s/ week, alongside testosterone, it raised my testosterone by a bunch, raised my DHEA level, and slightly raised my progesterone. Progesterone’s range is pretty tight. It would go from around 0.7 to around 1.0 on Pregnyl. Range for quest is just <1.4. No bottom of the range. And when labs would increase with Pregnyl, testicles were very large. At least the size they were pre-TRT. Almost seemed slightly bigger. For reference, while using Empowers HCG, my testicles are around 50% of their original size I would say. And when I come off of Empowers HCG, they don’t get any smaller. Empowers HCG doesn’t do anything for my test level, and also doesn’t increase progesterone or DHEA even a little bit. It’s literally like it does nothing. So ime, anytime progesterone was increased on HCG, my test and DHEA would increase as well. And this only occurred while on Pregnyl. I’ve tried 2 other brands of compounded HCG briefly, and they also raised DHEA. Not sure about the other labs. They were while I was with a crappy clinic, and didn’t thoroughly test labs.
