HCG dosage for PCT only (I'm done my cycle)

[Snarling Force]

So I've read the sticky here: http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/p...apy/very-best-pct-2010-right-here-712121.html

First off, I have 10k iu of HCG to use. I also have Unleashed and Post Cycle supplements and Arimidex. Thats it. No Clomid or Nolva (as I have previously used) as called out as worthless from the thread I posted above.

The thread talks about doing 500iu of HCG twice a week but that is during your cycle. Since I was using Sust, I waited 3 weeks after my last shot to start. What dosage of HCG should I be using? I read so much conflicting info on this my head hurts.

So to summarize, I have 10k iu of HCG, Post Cycle, Unleashed, and Arimidex. How should I run my PCT?

Thanks in advance so reading only confuses me further because I read something different every place I look.

Id just run hcg at 2x a week at 250IU, thats plenty to cause natty test levels in mid normal range. Its got a short half life and will cause natural test spikes so light ana post cycle while using HCG may be a good idea. Use the post cycle and unleashed as recommended by supplier.

Thanks Zyglamail. So it seems HCG is really only supposed to be used during a cycle and not after. This is news to me. For some reason, I always thought it was for PCT and have always used it in the past for PCT with what I felt were good recovery results.

I'm going to use HCG mid cycle and use HMG for pct. I'll keep you posted with results

When you use HCG is mimics LH so your body wont produce LH. While on cycle no big deal because your high test levels are already preventing your body from making LH.

Post cycle however you not only need your testes to start producing test but your body to start producing LH. Taking HCG post cycle will have an impact on that.

If you dont use HCG during a cycle than using post cycle to reverse atrophy is a good idea. If you have been using HCG during your cycle, atrophy should be at a minimum so post cycle HCG isnt really needed because you need everything to start working again without being hampered by exo hormonal influence.

I just started my PCT and is as follows, 5000 iu's once every 6th day ( 5 shots total ) with 20 mgs of nolvadex daily. Have done this many times and works great, have never done HCG during my cycles. Hope this helps. Peace
