HCG Questions: When and How Long?
I have some questions about HCG, specifically, when is the best time to incorporate it and for how long. I've ready conflicting information on this site and on other sites, so maybe there's no right answer, but I want to make sure I'm not doing the wrong thing.
I've been following this sticky post as the basis for my cycles. I'm currently at the end of my second cycle and I've been following this guys protocols: http://www.eroids.com/forum/steroids-qa/steroid-cycles/how-to-run-a-cycle. I've been using HCG as he outlines - 250 ius 2/wk on weeks 2-12.
Several posts on this site however call for using it for only 2 weeks and blasting at the end of your cycle. This site (http://www.silownia.net/steroids/hcg) says that it should not be used for more than 2-3 weeks because it can "desensitize your Leydig's cells to luteinizing hormones, further hindering a return to homeostasis".
I've read many different opinions on what the proper dosage is. 1000 ius per day for 10 days. 1500 - 3000 ius every 4-5 days for 2-3 weeks. Is there a right answer here?
And is 10 weeks really too long?

What cycle are you running? Doses drugs duration? How and if to use hcg depends on the type of cycle your running. My personally beliefs is anytime using a 19-nor you run it on cycle like you did starting the second week and right up until a few days befoe pct, or if your running a cycle for longer then 10-12 weeks. In those situations I would highly suggest it. Now it can also be personal to the individual. If your one who suffers from bad testicular atrophy on cycle then it's probably best to use it throughout even if it's less then 10-12 weeks. It will make recovery a lot easier. I usually recommend the 10 days blast before pct to guys who have gotten ahold of some at the end of there cycle so they have not been running it the entire time. It's just gonna make pct easier if your balls have shrunk at all. So my two protocols that I have gathered from personal experience and those of many others on a lot of different forums is either 250-500iu twice a week for the entire cycle, or 1000iu eod for 10 days stopping 4 days befor pct. those Are the most common
Thanks man. I'm doing pretty much the second cycle as outlined in that sticky except I did the winny at the start instead of the end
250mg 2/wk Test E (weeks 1-12)
50mg 1/day Winstrol (weeks 1-6)
250ius 2/wk HCG (weeks 4-12)
.5mg EOD Anastrozole (weeks 1-12)
I'll try the 10day blast on my next cycle.
^^^^ good advice.listen to him bro. I added hcg to the end of my cycle after asking advice from iron. Imma do a ten day blast @ 1000 iu eod.then start my pct 4-5 days after the blast. Good luck bro
I read a study where they said after administering HCG for 18 months there was no change in the test subjects natural production.So I wouldn't sweat it.I run it entire cycle at 250iu 2x a wk.
What were the dosages for 18 months?
You have a link to study?
It was a ways back broseph,but it was a legitimate medical study.I wouldn't reference it otherwise.
You would have to abuse the hcg for a while to really desensitize the Lydeg cells. Like 1000iu eod for a while not 10 days. The 250iu twice a week shouldn't cause any problems.
