HCG- Is It REALLY Necessary???

[Texas Ranger]

Fellas, who uses HCG post cycle? Do you REALLY think it's necessary when Clomid more than gets the job done for most?? It seems like it's only useful in longer cycles(12+ weeks) and heavier cycles. What's your opinion???

If it's a modest to light cycle, probebly not, clomid if fine, on a heavy cycle, it would not even be a consideration not to use it. IMOP.

The problem with just clomid is that if u have severe testicular atrophy the Clomid/LH will not be nearly as effective. For the guys whos nuts shrink to peas....HCG is extremely beneficial!

what would someone consider a heavy cycle?

Keep HCG on hand as a remedy for "raisin balls" only. HCG is dosed approximately two weeks before beginning clomid therapy. Also, it is something ancillary to a heavy cycle of trenbelones as well as testosterone and its esters. If you are taking 5aa and/or 19-nor steroids (eg. Winstrol, deca) and you're not going insane with the dosages, it's unlikely that using HCG will be necessary.

Can the question be reversed...???

Can one take HCG and ditch the clomid?

I've read a lot of posts stating that some people get horrible sides from clomid....

This shit is so confusing.....

HCG and Clomid target entirely different areas and do different things.

Clomid affects the hypothalaumus and pituitary to start production of natural LH (luteinizing hormone) after a cycle. Taking HCG is only a partial cure because it acts to only replace natural "LH." So, ending HCG without taking Clomid? What happens? Your pituitary and hypothalamus will never sense when to restore its normal LH production. Hence, you will bring about another crash.

So, in conclusion, you cannot take HCG and ditch the Clomid therapy.
