    Great article 2Sox, thank you. Once my BW is done next month my doc will likely forget about me and I plan to start HCG.

    In the meantime would supplementing Preg & DHEA be a logical plan? Pretty sure I can get Preg from the Vitamin Shoppe

    Spend some time learning about both. There is much to learn. If there is a specific question, then.........?

    Much to learn is an understatement, it's quit fascinating. Main question was if anyone was on it.

    Have read you should front load when starting it (like creatine).

    Many of us are on it. You very well may need to be as well but BW should be your guide, not just the fact that you are on TRT. There is zero need to front-load it. Preg and DHEA are precursors to testosterone, which comes from cholesterol, and it's beneficial to back fill those pathways. Like 2Sox said, micronized is your first choice and MRM brand is what I use as well.

    Re the comments about needing or not needing it due to using HCG. It still depends on BW whether primary or secondary hypogonadal.

    My pregnenolone is low (likely my age) so I supplement twice daily at 50mg each. I also supplement with DHEA five times a week. MRM supplements make a micronized version. Try to get them. Vitacost or Vitamin Shoppe are both good.

    Be careful with DHEA. It's easy to go too high and you don't want that. See if your doc will include DHEA-S on your blood work. My blood work told me I was over-supplementing and that's why I cut back to 5x week - 50mg. In range now.
