    Is Nolvadex better than HCG for PCT?

    Anybody want to weigh in on this one, I'm new to this PCT stuff. Back in the day we were just worried about getting real juice, PCT was for the pros and guys with good connections lol. We used Nolvadex back then for bitch tits (gyno). HCG was a PCT, if you could get it. But like I said it was for the upper crust of the body building world. How old am I? Well put it this way I did Anadrol 50 made by Syntex. Don't freak guys thats a legit pharmacutical company.

    They both have their uses in helping to restore natural test production but as they are so different you cannot say that one is better over the other, they are both good at what they do.

    wow your old!

    jk!

    umm Nolva, stacked with HCG, and aromasin is known to be a killer pct.. as far as which is better...i couldnt say, because I don't run just 1 compound for pct.. Just nolva, or just hcg, or even just Clomid..

    although i will say in dosage comparison.. nolva is stronger per mg i believe

    I run HCG durring my cycle and nolvadex durring pct unless gyno symptoms come up durring cycle..... then i'd start my nolva early.

    Nolva and clomid are much better options..... i'm not an EXPERT on pct..... but i believe it has to do with the LH (leutinizing hormone)..... if your taking too much hcg in PCT it may inhibit recovery......?

    HCG durring cycle will help prevent testicular atrophy..... and help your recovery durring pct.

    if i'm wrong - someone please correct me lol

    HCG is usually used during the end of the cycle, and NOT in PCT anymore. For PCT you want clomid/nolva

    HCG is usually ran in the last 2 weeks of a cycle and in the first two weeks before PCT (4 weeks total) because it will merely delay the PCT process when nolva/clomid are trying to restart the HPTA.

    For most cycles I have found hcg to be of little use. Only cycles consisting of trens or nandrolones would be the exception. Nolvadex is usually considered a PCT staple and I find it better than clomid myself. hcg should not be used in PCT, if used, during cycle.

    I think many ppl find it of little use, but thats because of the misinformation on protocols, in this thread there are ppl saying it should be ran for 2wks and the 2wks up till PCT, IMHO i don't think that 4wks of HCG use on low doses like 500iu two or three times per wk is going to do a great deal.
    You only have to look at the dosages and duration in studies on hypogonadal males to realise how much and for how long this hormone has to be used for to ellicit any respectable effects.

    So in your opinion, would you run HCG after lets say a long cycle (22 weeks)? And if so what dosage?
