First Cycle...Test Cyp

[GoIrish22]

Hey guys just need your help with a question I have. I am going to be starting a cycle of Test Cyp soon, and use HCG as of now, it is prescribed to me through my DR and I am just wondering if you think I should continue to use it or stop using it, currently I use 60 units 2x a weeks usually 3 days a part. I am going to be doing a 10 week 250 units a week of Test Cyp. So if I continue to use HCG how much would you say to use and how often? will my 60 units 2x a week be alright and what are the benefits of continuing to use? Just one other point of information, I use 1 mg of anastrozole 3x a week as well, I will be continuing this throughout my cycle, but cutting it down to .5 mg eod, and if you could critique that idea as well I would really appreciate thanks a ton guys.

may i know what is your underlying condition? what is your dr giving you hcg for? how old are you? any recent bloodworks?

By 250 units of test do you mean 250mg/week

[GoIrish22]

I went to him due to fatigue and lazy feeling etc, and he prescribed it due to my test levels being slightly low, i do not have exact figures, but I get blood work every few months, he also gave me danazol, anastrozole. Yes I meant 250 mg sorry.

you probably can continue your hcg thru-out your cycle. in fact, you may want to increase the dose a little. the usual dose for hcg during cycle is 125-250iu 2x/wk. at the end of the cycle, you can revert back to your usual dose when you start pct.

however, if you're currently suffering from hypogonadism(low test), the cycle may hurt your HPTA further.

So if my math is correct I am doing 60 units meaning I am doing 600 IU 2x a week so 1200 total, this is according to a conversion chart I found, so in my 1 cc insulin needle I am filling it to 60 units. So is my math correct? how much should I stick with then? Or is it 1 unit = 1 iu? i am super confused.
So you know it is a 8,000 iu bottle and i mixed it with 2.4 ml of water

[GoIrish22]

and I am 22.

now i am confused too. you mean you have 8000iu in that bott with 2.4ml water, and you shoot 0.6ml of that each time, twice a wk? so you finish the whole bott of 8000iu in 2 wks?

if thats the case, its sounds like an extremely high dose. how long has this been going on? any idea how long your dr wants to keep you at this dose? my guess is it might be a short but strong treatment plan. which means you probably should complete the treatment and subsequent re-evaluation before you start cycling. otherwise, you might seriously screw up your system and the treatment.

I've been using since august but in January he upped it to the 60 units or .6 ml. And since I am at school I won't see him until this summer. So idk how long he'll want to keep me on it etc. So what do you think I should do?

[GoIrish22]

Also would it be a good idea to continue my use of anostrozole 1 mg 3x a week while on cycle?

[AD]

sorry to say, but i think your case is a little beyond my ability. i suggest you continue with your current treatment at the prescribed doses, and postpone any thoughts of taking roids. cycling now will seriously complicate and aggravate your underlying condition. when you next see your dr, ask him specifically what his plans are for you. how long you need to continue, and ask him about your plans for cycling while on treatment.

it is definitely not safe to start now

alright thanks man I appreciate it.
