Yeah Muscle, i did go through some of that research through nih and pubmed. Its some good info. Most of the research there, amd that i could find, was related to fertility. Im trying to figure out long term effects, as well as the effect of hcg on cycle or on trt, while intake of exogenous test.
Reason being, theres something i havent been able to get a grip on. Exogenous test will shut down your natural production. Your body sees the intake of test, tells your testes to stop production, testes shrink-atrophy. The introduction of hcg artificially tells the testes not to atrophy, and tricks the cells to believe there is no reason to stop and to atrophy - if i have it all correct. And dont get me wrong, im not an expert by any means.
But to me, it stands to reason that one source is telling to stop, another telling not to stop. I would think it would result in mixed signals and confusion down the line somewhere
