    HCG or TRT??? has this happened to you?

    So my endo wants me to get a physical before she decides to give me HCG but she says that generally it's HCG or TRT??? This doesn't make sense to me. Has anybody else here been faced with this choice?

    it doesn't suprise me, and I'm sure she isn't the only one.

    nonetheless, plenty of people do good on HCG solo

    A good balance of both is the ticket!

    Good balance is what I was thinking. I've had immense change since i began TRT 8 injections ago, and I don't want to stop. Hopefully she will listen to me......

    Hopefully, but dont give in, if she doesnt continue your search to have it done the proper way, cant be a litle bit pregnant, either you are or not.

    From what Ive read some people do good on HCG alone but only for a while then it is not effective.

    That's good to know. My worry would be crashing if I did switch to HCG alone. I'll search the internet to see if I can find anything from ar eputable source about trials with T crash on HCG alone. Hopefully if I find some documents that I can present her, hes will understand my real concern. But all in all, I'm just concerned about the size of the boys and future reproductive ability.

    Most doctors still wont prescribe HCG if you are on HRT unless it's prescribed from a fertility clinic unless they are really up on the whole HRT process.

    I brought my doctor one of Crislers paper on hcg ....He read it, then prescibed it accordingly.....

    Most doctors i saw before him, wouldn't even consider adding it, and knew very little about trt.....

    My new doc might not be the best trt doc, but atleast he's open minded.....

    Therein lies the truth!

    Most hCG mono therapies are largely ineffective and if you're Primary forget it!
