HCG. Is it necessary?

[Dakota55]

I've read mixed things about the use of HCG. I was wondering if it was absolutely necessary if you aren't running a long, extended cycle or a high dose cycle. Does it make that big of a difference?

[kelkel]

It's simply healthier with it. Read Austinites Educational on it. It's in the stickies.

[Stolencopy]

Always stickies.

So if you don't take enough of it it's bad, and if you take too much it's bad?!

Best to read the thread recommended. In general, it's advised to run 500iu of HCG per week during your cycle (not during PCT), but you should read to understand why, what it does, and the appropriate use. Staying safe while using anabolics requires time spent educating before medicating.

The stickies are hypocritical as Atomini's all-you-need-to-know about TREN suggests otherwise.

That's his personal opinion. It's a great Tren thread but you'll have no LH issues if appropriately dosed. Old school philosophy is to shut down and run it at the end. Modern logic is to use it throughout, keep your testies functioning and make restarting that much easier. I think Austinite put it succinctly in his HCG thread (which you should look at) when he said, and I paraphrase: "You don't put your seat belt on after the accident".

What I hate about HCG is.........
I don't care what anyone writes in the forum and gets stickied etc.

There are strong arguments to use it and to not use it,
To use it during cycle or to use it post cycle

Im not a steroid guru but for the past 7 years of researching HCG personally, I still don't know what the actual correct answer is.

If Arnold became president then lots of $$ would have went into stem cell research etc. But he banged his maid and wasn't born in the USA... So....

I use it during cycle because I flipped a coin

I've done multiple cycles and haven't ran hCG until this year without an issue. I always rely on an AI, nolva and clomid.

As in life you have to work through the hypocritical BS. Once you read enough you figure out the facts and that is the point of all of it I think. If you are spoonfed you do not appreciate it. Just remember opinions are like arseholes..everyone has one.

As far as HcG once you understand what it does you can decide if it makes sense or not. If I was concerned with turning my jewels back on I would do these three things:

1. SHORT esters only (No cyp no enath no decanoate) Prop, Phenyl Prop, or shorter.

2. HcG. It is cheap and sub-Q. Why not?

3. Cut any 19 nor at least 2 weeks before end of cycle.

The stickies are hypocritical as Atomini's all-you-need-to-know about TREN suggests otherwise.

I am TrT hypogonadal primary. I don't giv a crap if they shrivel up to peanuts...less to get in the way on the pecdeck.

Why? Because you can achieve an erection? post your baseline blood work along with recent blood work.

Then you have a youtube video posted that Says don't listen to what you read on the internet.....and has an argument about why you shouldn't use HCG on cycle..rich piana on cycles - YouTube
