Dumb HCG Question..

[bunkka]

Got my Test and HCG in.

Will be waiting for my Clomid and Liquidex to arrive before I start my next cycle though.

Here is where y'all laugh at me uncontrolably.... WTF am I supposed to do w/ this Profasi HCG in the two ampules (one w/ sodium chloride and the other w/ the gonadotrofina). I've got the 10,000 ius, btw.

Basically... how do you go about mixing the two compounds, storage, etc???

It's a ways off before I'm going to need the stuff and I was aware it was going to come like this, but now that it's here I just wanna make sure I prepare it correctly for administration.

Thanks for the help, as always!

You're suppose to mix the solution with the powder.
Then whatever you got left over store in the fridge.

Thanks Canuck.

This is supposed to be 10,000 ius and I just don't see how it can be that much. I guess that's what's got me more confused than anything.

Yep, profasi makes HCG amps that vary from 500IU per amp all the way to 10,000IU per unit.
How much are you planning on running and how often?

I'm going to be taking Test Enanthate and Liquidex throughout. Kicking in the HCG on Sundays of Week 7, 8, 9, 10. Then, running everyday up to Clomid afterwards.

Test Enanthate
Week 1-2: TEST 1000 MG
Week 3-10 TEST 500 MG

Liquidex
Week 1-10 .5 MG/Day

HCG
Week 7: 500 IU
Week 8: 500 IU
Week 9: 500 IU
Week 10: 500 IU
Post-Cycle: 500 IU/ED leading up to Clomid.

I had one of those 10,000 i.u. vials and it sucked. I mixed it up and drew it all into a 3cc syringe, took the needle off, and very carfefully drew out about 500 i.u in each insulin syringe. Took forever, but it worked. I only deal with the 5,000 i.u. vials now. Much easier.

Do yourself a favor... order some bac stat water... and a couple sterile vials. Put the powder and 10cc's of water in a vial so you can draw off 1,000iu easily.

I would be careful with the HCG on top of the test - you could get some nasty estrogen spikes. The adex dose may not be enough to regulate it completely. It just depends how sensitive you are. I guess if your adex keeps you real dry and not bloated up to that point you may be OK. I would not take the HCG on the same day of your test shot, take it on the down side of the curve like the 5,6th day of the week, with your TE shots I am presuming on day 1. And I would push most of the HCG out to week 11, 12 to run while the TE is clearing, to better avoid these issues.

Weeks 11 and 12, I would be taking 500 IUs everyday running up to the Clomid. I'll take your advice and do the 500 IUs in the last weeks of my TEST on Fridays, weeks 7,8,9,10.

One thing I'm not totaly clear on with the Clomid... With Enanthate, Clomid therapy is best begun 2 weeks after. Do I begin counting starting the day of my last Test shot (say if on Sunday) or do I begin counting after the following Sunday when I'm NOT taking the Test shot? Obviously, this is an issue w/ the proper administration of HCG.

2 weeks after your last Test shot bro.
