Wow, those are pretty high testosterone scores at only 100mg/week. Do you contribute that to the HCG?

i would have been more surprised if he were like some and only half way up the scale and yes hcg will bump it...

juice, was there a question in this new post?

Is the test truly 100mg/ml or 200mg/ml? I know it's out there, but it seems rare to find anyone with 100mg/ml these days.

You could probably keep the testes healthy with 1/2 the amount of HCG, which in turn would help reduce your total serum level. That would also reduce the E2 conversion a bit, which would probably put you in the 30's on your E2 with that amount of AI compound. Just my .02

Most of the pharmacies around me actually only have the 100mg/mL option in the 10 mL vials. Took quite a bit of searching to find it in 200mg/mL, but was worth it because my copay is the same for both, even though one obviously would last twice as long. YMMV depending on your location/pharmacies though.

I didn't know hcg would raise levels that much.

I really don't know it's the first time I have bought a bottle.

That's interesting, Frawnz. I think you're right, it just depends on the location and/or pharmacy.

Yes it's a 100mg/ml bottle.

Could it be attributed to the Nolva that I was taking?

Juice - I know you've listed your dosages, but this is your new protocol right? What were you taking (dosages) when you had the bloodwork done, or was it the same?

[zaggahamma]

I didn't know hcg would raise levels that much.

raise them how much? compared to what...youre taking both test and hcg, right?

[JuiceBox12]

The protocol is the same except I am taking Anastrozole instead of Nolvadex now. I read where Nolva could raise your testosterone levels by as much as 150%.

I guess I just underestimated how strong the hcg really is. When I had my blood drawn I hadn't taken my Cyp in 7 days.
