As far as I'm aware, you cant get GnRH in a bottle, but can get GnRH agonists, such as Triptorelin Acetate. If you can get the hypothalamus to maintain some sort of endogenous GnRH, then you may be able to further supplement that small amount with a GnRH agonist....
This theory doesnt take into account various androgens direct effect on the pituitary, which you'de then need to maintain endogenous LH and FSH... Such as the ER (estrogen receptor) and progestins effects directly on the pituitary.
Then you have to think about estrogens effects on the testis directly. Would enough endogenous hormones from the meds your using (GnRH agonists etc..) be enough to prevent testicular dysfunction?
Stick with HCG for the time being IMHO.
