Starting HCG towards end of first cycle

[jthai]

HI,

I'm sure I may get flamed here but I was under the advice of a somebody with expertise in the area however I am researching a lot more myself and had a question re HCG for first cycle

my cycle currently is:

Test Prop - 150mg EOD
Aromasin - 10mg ED

I'm 8 weeks in and am running for 12 weeks in total.

Should I start taking HCG now? I've just started noticing test Atrophy. If so, what amount should I be taking as I'm guessing there is a good chance my Natural LH has shut down by now? I was thinking its best to do 500iu twice per week for the last 4 weeks.

I've also read that if you take during cycle, you should not continue as part of your pct. so am I best to take it now for the next 4 weeks to help with pct or hold off and use it as part of my pct?

thanks for any help.

You should have taken it from the beginning. In any case go ahead and start as soon as possible with the 500iu/week. Do not extend the HCG into the PCT like people keep wanting to do.

During pct you are trying to jump start your natural test producting by using nolva and clomid and using hcg in pct is counter productive because hcg chemically keeps your system going.
Hcg does not help in restarting test
Nolva and clomid does

Thanks for the advice guys. Ranger, would you split the HCG into 250iu, twice per week or just 1 500iu once per week?

Split it 250iu 2-3 x ew
