HRT Doc giving bad advice... Please help!

[ajd31886]

Hello all. I am new member to the board, but I have been referencing this site for over 5 years! Let me tell you a little bit about myself and prior cycles before getting into my issue. I am 24 years old and like many other curious teens got into the world of AAS at a young age, first cycle was at the age of 19. I knew at the time that it was a BIG no no to start so young, but I was ignorant and went with it anyway. Prior cycles were as follows...

1st cycle
Test Enanthate 10 wks @ 500mg/wk
(Due to lack of knowledge and resources at the time no PCT was used)http://forums.steroid.com/images/smi.../chairshot.gif

YES I was miserable for awhile, but ended up bouncing back rather quick.

2nd cycle
Test Enanthate 10 wks @ 500mg/wk
PCT with Clomid only 100/50/50/50

My stats are as follows:

24/yrs old Male
5'7 170lbs 12% BF


Which brings me to where I am now. I recently have began treating at a local HRT clinic since my bloodwork did show my test on the low side (will pull results if levels are needed) Doc was going to start me on Hcg /Clomid to begin with to try and bring levels to normal and start fresh. I pushed to start Testosterone first and he went with it. Doc started me with Test Cyp 200mg/wk. I figured this was kind of on the low side but I figured I would give it a try. (Better than what my body had to work with at the time)

Here I am now at the end of 10weeks, had a great cycle overall! Libido was back, I was mentally back on track and not to mention I packed on close to 12lbs. I have some before and afters I will post once I get a better idea on how to utilize this posting stuff.

Here is my main concern... PCT.... I have received Clomiphene (30) 50mg caps and 11000 Units of Hcg. The Doc tells me to inject 1000units of HCG EOD. And take 100mg clomid 1st week and 50mg throught the rest.

I just don't feel like this is correct. I have read the PCT threads that would advise taking X amnt of HCG while still on cycle then clomid and nolva for pct. Can some please lend their expertise and let me know if my doc's pct method is incorrect for my cycle. Or if you have better advice i'm all ears.

Thanks in advance!

Is the "cycle" you're referencing the 200mg of cyp per week? If that's the case, then you shouldn't consider it a "cycle" per se. This is a physiologic dose that is commonly used for HRT. The reason this is an important distinction is that the PCTs you read about when using super-physiologic testosterone doses do not apply.

That being said, the HCG and clomid doses your doc is recommending sound pretty good to me.

Master, Thanks for the input. What I will do is save this bottle of test and wait 10 wks until i receive my new one from the doc, this way I can at least double up to 400/mg wk.
