    Hey Swifto, do you think HCG should/could be run also during a bridge time?

    Like for example:

    BULK 1
    8 weeks test p 700 mg ew (100 mg ed)
    8 weeks hcg 500 iu ew (250 iu e3.5d)
    8 weeks exemestane 25 mg ew (12.5 mg e3.5d)

    BRIDGE
    4 weeks test c 300 mg ew
    4 weeks rhgh 28 iu ew (4 iu ed)
    4 weeks t4 700 mcg ew (100 mcg ed)
    HCG?

    BULK 2
    6 weeks test p 1050 mg ew (150 mg ed)
    6 weeks hcg 500 iu ew (250 iu e3.5d)
    6 weeks exemestane 25 mg ew (12.5 mg e3.5d)

    Thank you

    I greatly appreciate it...

    BTW in the study you showed to me, men are given HCG 5000IU 3x per week with Test Enanthate 200mg per week (which is high dose of HCG).
    Usually I use only small dose of HCG (250IU-300IU 2x per week) during steroid cycle. What about it?
    Is that dose enough to maintain sperm production during cycle?

    I wouldnt worry about that. HCG dosed far lower has been shown to maintain testicular function without the possible occurrence of leydig cell desensitisation.

    Many Thanks for your time, swifto...

    I think thats a decent idea as E2 and progesterone can build over time with HCG's use. Coming back to using it during your "bulk 2" after 4 weeks of cessation you may need a slightly larger initial dose.

    I'd go with 1500ius/wk for the first week, then back down to what you were using before.

    Thats a good question and I dont know an awful low about it.

    From my knowledge it just mimcs FSH, not LH, which is primarily used for testosterone production/synthesis.

    HMG would be better used at increasing spermatagenesis.
