HCG and Clomid - timing

**FedSki** · 03-27-2003, 06:51 AM

I've read conflicting advice about when to take HCG and Clomid.

Ok, here's my plan. I would like your comments . . .

1. Took my last Deca /Sust shots Tues 18 March.
2. Started taking Winny EOD Thurs 20 March which I will run until 6 April (9 shots in total).
3. Take my first HCG shot on Sat 29 March, next shot 5 days later on 3 April and last one on 8 April.
4. I will start my clomid therapy on the 8 April which coinsides (as planned) with my last shot of HCG and is 3 weeks after my last Deca/Sust.

What do you think?

How long did you run deca /sust?

IMO HCG is not needed unless you are running a longer cycle (15+ weeks). Especially if you have Clomid on hand.

How many iu's of the HCG are you taking each injection?

I will also tell you that 3 weeks of Winny shot EOD is a bit of a waste but it is to late for that now.

Need more info here to give you a definative answer.

Yea I know about Winny waste - using it as a bridge in the main.

My cycle was 10 weeks.

I've got three amps of 1500IU HCG . I know I need the stuff cause my balls are small. I ran dbol for the first five weeks and during that time my balls shrunk to around half their size.

One of the reasons for my question - some suggest you run HCG before clomid. Some suggest start HCG and clomid together and some suggest you run it like I've planned - before and with clomid.

I have done HCG before my clomid (last shot was 1 week before clomid start) and I loved it. I have never felt this good after a cycle. Next time I might try moving the HCG a little closer but I have heard that too close the HCG makes the clomid useless. But only way to tell is try.

was hoping to start my first hcg shot tonight. i would like a few more opinions before i do. so guys - what do you think - hcg with clomid, hcg before clomid or before and with clomid?

i would say take hcg then wait for 1 week then start clomid

Start your HCG prior to clomid. Most people shoot it @ 500iu ED for the last 1-2 wks of their cycle. Since you only have 3 x 1500iu of HCG, just go with the method you had stated above.

If i am only running sust for 10 weeks, would i only need Clomid or HCG too? How long after my last shot would you recomend starting Clomid if i don't use HCG. Thanks

When running sust only most people will tell you to start your clomid two weeks after your last shot. there's loads of info. on this subject - try a search.
