Personally I don't think it's dependent on how much gear you used for how long but on how much shrinkage you've got an how long it takes to get back to normal pre-Clomid. People vary considerably on how much shrinkage if any they get on a cycle.
I'd definitely recommend the 500iu/day ed thing for say seven days min if you have serious shrinkage. Just remember to wait at least a couple days after the last HCG shot before starting Clomid to let your test levels fall -from what I've read HCG causes a spurt of natural test beginning soon after each shot. For that reason I think it's a good idea to take at least half a tab of Nolva after each shot too. I do.
