Severe Testicular Atrophy and Want to Try HCG

[keithc2485]

Thanks for the input man . I will start the 500iu 2x a week Sunday.
then I guess so another blood draw in 4 too 6 weeks?

Another question.. I was under the impression that the Pregnyl brand HCG lasts up too 6 weeks in the refrigerator, at least that is what the box says .

Should I have replaced it ? Or is it still good . Asking only bc others say 3 to 4 weeks it's bad..
Thanks -K

Great information...
Do you think maybe I should try like 800iu a week broken into 400iu 2x a week ? For a few weeks to see how the levels change? Or just go with the the 500iu 2x ?


Attached is blood work from 3 weeks on HCG @ 500iu a week and 2 weeks at 700iu ..total of 6 weeks added to my trt

You could try 400iu twice a week for a couple weeks. I would go by feel rather than numbers.

Hcg will stabilize in about 2 weeks. It has a shorter half life than test cyp so no need to wait 6 weeks to make hcg-only changes imo.

Also pregnyl should be good for a while. I have used a bottle of hcg for up to 11 weeks before.

Ya pregnyl will last at least 60 days, in my experience. Probably longer. It has things added to it to prolong its shelf life once reconstituted, that other HCG doesn’t have.

And it kind of does keep your natural production going in a way. It stops your brain from sending the signal to produce testosterone in the testicles, just like how testosterone cuts the signal off. The difference is that HCG stimulates the testicles directly, and then your testicles should make testosterone. When testosterone is injected, it overrides all these processes and just delivers the testosterone straight into your bloodstream. While on HCG, LH and FSH will both show basically zero.

And just so you're aware, you don't need much if it's just for atrophy. That's what i use it for and i only need 350iu/week. I preload pins and then freeze them because reconstituted hcg only lasts about a month unless frozen.

First I've heard of anyone doing this. Is freezing them pretty common?

how do you know when pregnyl is expired from being in the fridge... becuase the amount i use , 10,000iu could last me 3.5 months and i wasted like half a bottle last time bc it hit 60 days.... ive gone up to 800iu a week broken in 2 by the way. small amount of size gained back in testicals...not much though ....

i lowered my test. by 20mgs now ... so i only do 80mgs a week 40 and 40 .... ...
