HCG and chest sencitivity

[GotNoBlueMilk]

Take it from a guy who is very sensative to E2, had puberty gyno, and has had to work to keep the gyno in check under HRT. Gyno sensativity is not limited to the nipple area alone. You can also get sensativity in other areas of the chest, and will develope hard nodules in those areas if it goes unchecked. My gyno symptoms start at 28 E2 blood levels.

For me, HCG did require more AI. My leydig cells are very responsive to LH and respond well to HCG. I would be willing to bet you had low baseline LH levels before you started HRT. If so, your leydig cells probably respond well to HCG too.

I understand your hesitation to add yet another chemical you are putting into your body; however, given the choice between HCG and no AI, I would go with the HCG option. In the long run you are much better off. I only do 100 IUs of HCG two times a week, and my boys are staying nice and plump (they had shriveled up a lot prior to starting HCG). A lower does of HCG may work for you, but if your boys are shrinking, it isn't enough. Consider taking GDevine's advice. Break your amount out from back to back days and do it twice a week or even 3 times a week.

When you decide to restart the HCG, try 100 mg 3 days a week. After a couple weeks if you have had no issues, maybe up that to 150 mg 3 days a week. After two more weeks, if no issues go to 200 mg 3 days a week. Top out at 250 mgs 3 days a week if that works ok for you. You need to do an amount that keeps the boys plump, or you aren't taking enough. If you end up having to do the AI, then that may just be what you have to do. HRT w/o HCG is not a good idea.

Thanks GNBM, i am expecting to get Arimidex sometime mid next week; I not against the idea, if this is not going to harm anything, of restarting HCG at a lower dose let's say 3 times a week, without AI. Again this is just me and i dont know enough about HRT to make my own opinion. Speaking of opinion, when would you think would be the most appropriate time to take HCG considering i am injecting Cypionate on Friday morning? Thanks again - Joslan

Someone else should answer this question. I inject T twice a week, and do HCG on the same day. I started out doing HCG the day before my T injection, but I got tired of sticking needles 4 days a week. God help me if I ever become diabetic and have to do insuline 3 times a day.

Well the good news GNBM is that the odds of becoming diabetic on a TRT is ridiculously low if not impossibe!

Another great benefit of TRT
