Hcg and aromasin timing

[Tryan]

Just curious as to when I should start hcg and aromasin on a cycle of anadrol and test cypionate? 2 weeks after first pin? Thanks everyone.

When you start your cycle.

When you start your cycle.

Yup ^^^ from the first pin!

Thoughts on taking a week off mid cycle to reset hcg receptors? Mega dose after cycle but before pct?

Not necessary. Low dose HCG does not cause receptor issues whatsoever. Mega dose after cycle is old school philosophy. Science has evolved.

Kel nailed it. With low dose protocol you will not experience receptor desensitization.

What's consider low dose? I've read all sorts of numbers from different reputable sources. Seems the 250-1000iu/week is the average recommended, with most around 500/week. I know hcg day before test pin, but that's only 2 days a week if on a long ester. Any point in splitting up the weekly dose into 3 or 4 versus 2? Thought being to keep daily levels more constant

Not necessary! Twice a wk is plenty! At 250iu per shot(500iu total) never exceed 1000iu in a wk(only if your experiencing more atrophy/pain in testes would I go to 3x wkly(MON/WED/FRI)

But say MON am then Thursday pm(e3.5d) at 250iu... No more a then that, or you may cause desenditstion(it does aromatize so it's really not worth the xtra aromatization either...

I think some in trt circles may do/try this. Like DR Crisler if I recall correctly has advocated low dose daily use, like 100iu,s per day.
I have always done well on 250iu's - 2x/week.

Oh to answer your "low dose" question, Id consider under 1000iu's/week a low dose. I really think you should use the lowest effective dose which as I said for me seems to be 250iu's at a pop, 2x/week. I first heard that recommendation here years ago and incorporated it then and have done it ever since. This prevents atrophy and doesnt impact me adversely as far as any significant increase in sides or e2 etc.....

Thanks for all the input! I have my 5th proposed cycle ready to post, but the site won't let me yet. Have done a lot of my homework, but Hopefully can get some insight once able.

Solid advice Jimmy! This^^^ would be along the lines of what I was referring to... Yes I have heard of TRT patients do low dose HCG as explained but for me aswell 250iu 2x wkly seems to do the trick for me too!
