[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 127477, member: 15043"] Honestly a dose increase might not even be necessary. With a total T of 295, your free T was the same as my free T when my total was 700. I’m a very high SHBG guy. So 80mg might be enough for you to boost your free T up enough. Only blood work will tell, but your ideal protocol might end up only being around 80-100mg per week. It’s always good to start low and go slow. The more frequent injections, the less T you need too. Not by much, but by some. A lot of guys report having to drop their total T per week by 10-15mg when switching to and everyday protocol. Just some things to keep in mind. For reference, while I was on 105mg/ week of T, and 1000iu/ week of HCG, my trough total T came back at 1855. While injecting EOD for both T and HCG. So you never know how you’re going to respond to a certain T dose. Starting low and going slow, while getting blood work as frequently as you can at the beginning, is the way to go. Is your doctor adding the HCG to your testosterone protocol, or is he taking you off of T and putting you on HCG only? And HCG is a tricky one when it comes to bringing your testosterone level up on its own. It’s extremely hit or miss depending on the person, and in my experience, depending on the brand of HCG. So again, the only way to find out if the HCG you use will raise your testosterone levels, and how much, is through bloodwork. I’ve personally done HCG mono where 2,000iu/ week brought my total T to 1200 at trough while injecting EOD. I’ve used other brands where 2,000iu’s brought my total T to around 600, and another brand that had my total T at around 300. All on the same dose of 2,000iu/ week. So, in my experience, HCG is EXTREMELY hit or miss in regards to how much endogenous testosterone production you’re going to get. [/QUOTE]
