    HCG dosage/timing

    So, as I mentioned in another thread, I've started my t protocol the other day. I plan to do HCG after reading so much about it here and how it's a good thing. I was prescribed it as well. However, doc says use it daily but it doesn't seem like I need it daily for this.

    Looking for how I should do my HCG. Doing 200mg of t every 6 days. How often should I do HCG? What dosage should I use for HCG this way?

    Thanks again.

    You decided to go with that high a dose to start? I really think you'll find it's too high and may cause problems that could have been avoided if you started with a lower dose and worked up if needed.

    There are several ways to run HCG . Many go three times per week at app 250iu (M-W-F) to keep it simple and avoid weekend injections. Others on a once a week protocol will inject app. 250iu's one and two days before their test injection to keep test levels boosted from the degrading of the injected bio-T. Some top Doc's in the industry are encouraging a daily low dose protocol, say 100iu's per day. Personally, I don't want to inject anything every day unless I absolutely have to.

    I'll end with how I began. More is not better in TRT. Start low and titrate up. Very few people need 200mg weekly.

    I did for a few reasons:

    -Syringes are preloaded so not able to do anything about it at the moment (I know, a weak argument).
    -Seems like 200mg every 6 days is a very common protocol so I don't know (I really don't know) that a bad thing.
    -I'm a big guy and I'm guessing dosage is based on bodyweight like all other medications (again, I don't know that for sure).
    -I know quite a few people on the same protocol and they're not experiencing problems.
    -Not sure how many highs/lows one can encounter in 6 days (don't know yet anyway).

    I will revisit this with the doc when I see him in a month, however.

    I'm with you, I don't want to inject every day either. I was wondering about doing it twice a week (HCG ). Wondering is 3x makes more sense? Seems like there is no real general consensus. However, the more I read the more I'm convinced adding it to my t protocol makes sense.

    I have no problem if you tell me I'm totally crazy, I'm trying to learn as I said.
