HCG while on cycle yes or no?

I'm on 190 mg a week of test cyp. According to what my doc has said, test levels raise and fall during the day, but normally higher during the am. So hcg is there to keep levels more stable. Whether its right or wrong, I only do what my doc says. Even though, I been off hcg on and off, I never felt a difference.
It's only natural levels that rise and fall through the day....not exogenous hormones. There is absolutely none of this with trt. Not surprising becsuse most docs don't know much on endocrinology

It is true that natural test levels raise and fall during the day and it is true that HCG can help make levels more stable but since you dont inject HCG daily, the HCG doesnt really solve the problem on a day to day basis. Like Rick said, its a whole different ballgame when you are on TRT (as opposed to natural test production). You would look at it in more longer terms............like you inject test 1X week......your test levels spike, then start to drop until the next injection. If you use HCG in between test injections they you will see a slight bump in test levels. My personal opinion is that you should not use the HCG simply for in an increase in test, adjust your injected test dosages and/or frequency for that. Instead use HCG for infertility concerns and such, but dont use it year round. Make sure to take time off.
 
Lol so where do We link up when the first nuke hits?? Lol

Well said brother. Great advice!
 
Just as the title says. I've always taken 500mg split in 2 doses while on cycle and while on TRT but lately I have been reading and a lot of people seem to stop taking HCG while on cycle and continue while off.

Sincerely, I see no point in using HCG on cycle, as the test itself will be already doing all the job. Besides, HCG can cause such side effects as gynecomastia, and even suppression. All in all, it is a pretty useless thing to use IMHO.

Never been a fan of HCG myself. I've always avoided it
 
I think I'm going to use hcg since I'm running a long cycle

I'm planning a 20 week cycle so I wanted to throw a little hcg to help. I'm going to run a 6 week pct

In that case, it really can't hurt. That's a pretty long cycle, and when I ran an 18'week about 3 years ago, it wiped out my test levels and I never could recover. Went on TRT after that. So yes, longer cycles can take their toll. Some people can recover better than others, and I would use whatever you can to ensure a good recovery

if your running a 20 week cycle and your running a pct, then you would start pct week 23 because 21 and 22 would be when esters are clearing... run hcg weeks 19-22 right before pct at 1000 ius per week... thats all you need... don't overdo it...

Recommendation on insulin syringe needle and length? 27g? 29? 1cc 1/2" needle?

Any of those. 31g is fine too. Go as small as 6mm needle length. 1/2cc syringe. That's what I use for hcg and GH when I run GH that's not in a pen

can it be done in one injection, once a week? or split dose 2 times a week?
