    Feel like I’m not responding to hcg.

    Just a little back story.

    I was on trt and got locked up. I was off therapy for 4.5 years with test levels hovering around 300. I was atrophied for the whole time.

    I got out 3 months ago and got back on trt about 2 months ago. I’m trying to get my boys back full so about 2-3 weeks ago I started hcg at 500 iu twice a week. Now my current trt doc didn’t give me hcg but I had 3 vials on hand from before getting locked up from my previous doctor. I reconstituted it and squirted it on a pregnancy test and it came back positive. The hcg was stored in the freezer the whole time so I have decent faith in it although it may be slightly less potent.

    I have been on 500 iu for about 3 weeks and haven’t seen much of a difference.

    I was thinking of going to 500 iu 3 times a week or possibly EOD if it is degraded.

    Just wanted your guys thoughts on it. In the past I have had great results from hcg although I was never atrophied this long so I’m not sure if I should wait longer at 500 iu or up the dose.

    At some point my doc said she is open to reviewing some research material on hcg and trt so I may be able to get some through her but as I just got out I’m nervous about ordering any hcg right now from online sources.

    Let me know what you guys think. As always. Much appreciated.

    If it were me, I would give it a couple more weeks, then consider upping the dosage.

    Only thing I can think to add is it was probably a blessing you had Low t for the 4.5 years. lol

    Yeah it was hell. I shot up to 280. Depressed. Completely atrophied. No gym. Terrible food. But I made it so I do feel blessed to be on the other side of it.

    Update. I’ve been in 500iu EoD for about 3 weeks.

    The testies have deff dropped lower but are still quite small. Going to continue on with this protocol and hopefully this shocks them back into operation.
