HCG while cycling

[markdk1108]

Ok what's the consensus for taking HCG while on cycle based on time on and products used and also once off cycle? Dosages etc?

My research has led me to believe that if you use HCG on cycle then you do not use it during PCT. 500 IU's a week seems to be a typical dose on cycle. Since the half life is about 4 days, I take 250 IU's every 4 days for the entire duration of the cycle and then proceed with clomid / nolva PCT.

I think the general consensus these days is that is does more good on cycle than during PCT but there are still precautions to be made aware of.

The second positive effect of HCG for the anabolic steroid user is use during a cycle of anabolic steroids. Due to steroid use, this will cause testicular atrophy due to the now suppressed state of natural testosterone production. By supplementing with HCG during steroid use, the individual can keep his testicles full. While this is merely a cosmetic effect that presents no strategic benefit, there is a possible benefit to be had. By keeping the body primed with exogenous LH, this can lead to an easier road of recovery once use of all anabolic steroids has been discontinued, but there’s also a problem. It is very easy, extremely easy for the body to become dependent on HCG for its LH needs, while the human body cannot become dependent on anabolic steroids it most certainly can HCG. For the low testosterone patient who’s using HCG, this is of no concern. However, if you are not a low testosterone patient HCG use on cycle must be regulated heavily and monitored closely in order to ensure an LH dependency does not occur. Many anabolic steroid users have done far more damage to their body with HCG use than most any anabolic steroids due to overzealous HCG use. Such on cycle use can, however, be very beneficial as it can help with the individual easing into a more efficient recovery, but it must be responsible use. Truly, regardless of the period of use, on cycle or as a kick start to PCT, HCG use must be regulated.

From my knowledge using it during cycle is important, more for the younger guys I guess but being 46 I need to recover after cycle too. I am going to try doing the 250 every 4-5 days starting tomorrow. Thanks
