what do you consider substantially?
What about the desensitization to LH on the leydig cells that occurs? And the increase in bio-inactive LH? those are both counterproductive to PCT.

HCG ran during the cycle at 250iu's is enough to keep intratesticular testosterone volume high which keeps the testes working, and since they dont stop working; they get back to normal much sooner. That will leave the hypo and the pit to get back to stabilization, which is much faster of a feedback rate and dont have nearly the same issues that the testes have trying to restart and achieve adequate Test production
I'm a believer in it bc it's recommended by many infertility doctors for ASIH (Anabolic Steroids Induced Hypogonadism), which is in effect the same rationale as what's being done in PCT. Also, I was very impressed with Scaly's study eventhough his population size was limited. And it is what's recommended by him and his colleagues who have treated well over 1000 individuals with ASIH. I also agree with the rationale behind it, which is that it's easier to keep the testes going once they've been jumpstarted by high dose hCG. I don't think desensitization will happen with ten x 2000iu injections eod.

I don't expect everyone to agree as I don't think there's a preponderance of evidence on any given side.
