HCG and Nolva for PCT
Lifting 25yrs

I am just finishing my third 12 week cycle at 250mg / week. I know that is not a popular cycle but it has been perfect for me and my results have been exactly what I was wanting. I am on my last week and I have HCG to start tonight. It was mixed at a compound pharmacy at 5000U/ml and was in a 1.6ml bottle. The syringes are .5ml and are marked 5 - 50 units on the syringe. The doctor prescribed .1 ml twice per week and I was told to draw to the 10 on the insulin syringe. My math says that is 500iu twice per week. I want to do 250iu EOD for the next three weeks. My math tells me i should draw to the 5 to get 250iu. Can anyone back me up on that please.

Thanks

usually 250iu/week

.10 = 500iu regardless of how big your vials is. I would add 1ml of Bac Water to your vial and change the .10 from 500iu to 250iu. Easier to dose.

And yes, you should have include hCG on cycle, not during your PCT. In fact, you may run into some E2 issues during you PCT while blasting hCG.

The hCG will raise your Test level which means more E2 conversion.

Next time dose your Hcg 5ml bacwater for 5000iu's. 5 and 5 makes for simple math. 25 units on insulin syringe is 250iu of Hcg. Plus actually use it on cycle next time to reduce testicular atrophy.

I did tons of research prior to all of these cycles and have never had HCG available until this one. I have always used Nolva and seemed to recover fine in a reasonable amount of time. The HCG became available so I wanted to add it this time. There is conflicting data all over this site, I may not be seeing the most current science concerning HCG usage. I have read in multiple places that it is used at the end of the cycle up until two weeks prior to ending PCT. I will do more reading but the stickies on the PCT threads are pretty dated and maybe need updating. Also on the home page the description of HCG usage talks about at the end of the cycle. I am not questioning anyones knowledge, quite the contrary, I am sure you are correct but saw conflicting data on this site. I want to do the right thing in the future so I will continue to research for the latest info on HCG. If you have articles or posts you base your current plans on please send them my way. Thanks for the help.

You want to do 1000 iu on the first two shots 3 days apart then 500 every 3 days. You are going to need at least another 5000 iu to get everything really working and test levels sufficient to support your new muscle growth. Most the people I know do hcg for 4 - 6 weeks after cycle even if they where using it during the cycle. Some AI will help the estrogen issues that may pop up at about 3 to 5 weeks should be started along with the hcg and taken for 4-6 weeks to prevent the gyno that seems to come out of nowhere when you think everything is going good. I have used the 250-350iu dose and its OK, but does not work near as well or quick as the dosage I listed above. Good Luck!
