    Test enanthate... how soon until sperm production ceases?

    I've been on a cutting cycle of 250mg a week for 3 weeks now. Just curious how soon sperm production ceases or is greatly decreased... my nuts are a lot smaller if that helps, will post pics later. (j/k)

    How long are you running your cycle for? your sperm count will only reduce it will not cease while on cycle, i believe it takes years of being constantly on before it will. And even then hcg and hmg can be used to kick your testies back into action, but its not certain it is always a risk! so if you are wondering if you should still use a contraception while on cycle the answers is YES, many members have conceived while on a AAS cycle

    Running hcg @ 250 iu X 2 a week while on cycle will keep your testies running and keep them at the regular size

    X2.. HCG is a must on cycle. .and it is dirt cheap too.. always incorporate it to save your testes the stress of going back and forth

    Not sure about 250mg/week...when i use anywhere between 500-750, i'm ready to hump at the drop of a dime! But it usually takes about 4 weeks to kick in.

    Not true.....Use it if you absolutely need it, but it's not a must to have. Especially w/ a test only cycle....

    definately not a must and if you didnt need to restart your system anyway why would u still need a PCT?

    As far as HCG goes ive found 250 twice a week just doesnt cut it for me. 500 twice a week does the trick.

    Hcg should be run in every cycle i believe to aid you with the best recovery, if you dont use it you can still recover fine, it just depends on the person

    So if this would be ones first ever test e only cycle would it not be a good idea to not use hcg since one would not know how they will recover.

    I ran 500mg of test for 10 weeks. I am literally just finishing my PCT (Nolva/Clomid).
    I've not have any issues with libido or erections and general mood is good. My wife is also pregnant again and we worked out times. I got her pregnant the week after my last injection I believe.

    So just goes to show... what they say is true. Lots of guys running cycles get their missus pregnant .

    I'm one of them - see one of my last few threads.

    I've been on a continuous blast for 11 months and administered zero hcg along the way.

    I mean it's simple, isn't it???....in case your testicles shrink - go for HCG .

    Good stuff mate (on the pregnancy).
    10wks was good for me then I ran a very "mild PCT" compared to what some guys do on here.

    You are going to be shut down no matter what. does not mean you are going to be infertile, its always good to run hcg , why would you not want the best chance of recovery?

    ''You are going to be shut down no matter what.''

    nonsense my friend, not all cycles shut you down...

    HCG is purely optional.

    so do you guys think that "better safe than sorry" would be the way to go with HCG ?
