HCG Paradox!?

**bogdan84uzy** · 01-25-2011, 03:43 PM

i think most of you know that Hcg ,which is used to increase yours T levels,when used in big doses,has the exact opposite effect-its shut down yours T levels.now the big questions for me are:
1.HCG can cause permanent leydig cell desentization?
2.Can the HPTA shut down from HCG use cause permanent pituitary shut down for LH/FSH production?

that would be a great thing to know!

THANKS!

Good question, (I'm on HCG to raise my T level recommended by my doctor ) how big is the dose you talking about? and whats the safe dosage?

it seems that nobody knows at all..i have read that Hcg can shut down permanently HPTA.amd after that the only solution it HRT,which is no solution unfortunely if you look for fertility

My test levels aren't that bad, my doctor suggest that i use HCG for 8 weeks (250 ui/week) and get some BW after, He say that i don't need Test yet, the HCG will do the work. I"m worry now. I'm waiting to see anyone respond to this.

250 is a very low dose.i have used 5000 ui in each shut

That's a lot, but if your in cycle its ok? right? because of the amount of gear you are on it.

If you're really concerned about using hcg , go the simple (but very effective) way, SERMS!

Im currently using 3 x 1500iu shots a week. Im doing this for 6 weeks to try and raise my sperm and testosterone levels as both are very low - Not from a cycle.

Bump for this...I know it's a little old but I'd really like to know this too. I'm trying to decide how to run it with my cycle now. I'm still not sure if I want to run it the classic way of going heavy for a few weeks at the end of a cycle, or if I should run low doses throughout. Permanent desensitization worries me too...
