if you take hcg

And you do not cycle your test. How often do you take it and how much?

If you do not take hcg . How much have your balls shrunk? Any problems?

I take 250 iu of hcg on each of the 2 days preciding my injection.

500iu 5/2, with the 2 being the two days following my test injection.

So you are trying to have one really peak a week? Since the hcg will give you a boost at the same time that the test is hitting it's peak.

I have read that being on hcg full time and not cycling it can cause the body to become desensitized to hcg. Then you are really screwed. I have also read that in doses under 500iu per week that that is really not an issue. So I am confused.

Right now I am thinking about maybe using 500iu per week in 2 injections for a month on and then a month off.

I know many people includeing my self that take hcg year round with know adverse effects. The only studies I have seen showing desensitizeing effects were from doses in the 1000's of iu range. My Dr has many people on hcg long term with no problems. HCG mimics LH so if it desesitized the testes then LH would to I would assume and all men would have problems then. I believe it is just in high doses that burn out the receptors.
