Having to miss a week of HCG - how to workaround best in order to maintain fertility and testicular function while away

ad

Hey guys - really appreciate the info on this site and just recently joined the forum.

My question is - how could I best manage having a week away without any HCG?

For context, I am self-administering TRT / low dose test and also taking HGC to maintain fertility and testicular function. I don't have a prescription so am not planning to take the drug with me when I travel for a week. On the test side, I will just take a week's dose using a longer ester on the day I leave which should be fine.

But for HCG I'm not sure what to do.

Fertility for the future is really important to me so I'm wondering what my best option here is.

Do a bigger dose the day I go and again on the day I come back? Maybe missing 6-7 days just isn't long enough for any shutdown? Any way to make HCG release slower?

Any suggestions would be great, thank you!

Yeah man, a week won’t hurt. Hit yourself with you usual dose right before you leave. I’ve seen some protocols that have one administering HCG weekly, leading me to believe (anecdotally) that there may be effects for that period of time. Are you flying?

Yes I’ve seen the same, so I think a week with a bigger dose will be fine. Though I may be able in the end to get a prescription it sounds like, we will see. I will be flying to Cyprus yes.

Missing 7 days isn't that big of deal imo. I personally wouldn't sweat it and just return to schedule when you get back.
