HCG on hrt and testes shrinking

Is the general consensus that even on hrt and using hcg , for most testical shrinkage is inevitable?

I'm only 2.5 weeks into my protocol, but that's 500mg deep, and my testicles have shrunk dramatically.
I have been using hcg 250iu 3x a week.

Now since there hasn't been any pain, just shrinkage I figure that the hcg is doing it's thing.

I know everyone's different but I'm wondering what are your experiences with shrinkage while taking hcg with your protocol?

Also if primary, hcg will have no effect on size of the testicles correct? But then would they shrink when exogenous testosterone is induced?

My testes were pretty small to begin with, but noticeably shrank in these two weeks, don't really even hang anymore...

Im in the same boat. They were always awful. But i still like having the hcg keeping them active

If you're primary then HCG will help less or not at all.

I don't use HCG, but from what I've seen some of the vets who do say, there often still is some minor shrinkage.

Regardless, the shrinkage for me (and many others) stopped early on, within about 4-12 weeks.

Mine shrunk down to about 30 or 40% of normal. HCG brought them back to about 80-85% of my normal size.

I love hCG ! I should have started right off with TRT. Loosened scrotum and improved size of stones within a week or so. Because it increased T (and sperm production), I was able to go down to one pump a day of Androgel . Libido is mighty, erections are much better, and orgasms are more intense. It may be more in the mind because I feel so much more "whole" it makes me feel more sexual.

Might take a while for the size to bounce back to normal though. ;-) I have nothing but time and I'm in it for life. I've got a good supplier. PM me if your interested. Protocol: 250iu EOD.
