Its hard to predict the outcome of any person, as everybody's recovery is different and not "cookie-cutter."
How old are you?
Age can play a factor in recovery as well. When I was 21, I would recover very easy with minimal help. I still recover quite easily when I come off, even when cycling for long periods. However, for those who age, they may need more 'assistance." Hcg does make it easier for a lot of us when coming off, especially its aesthetic characteristics on the balls, but its estro/aromatization effects may need to be factored in for those who are older and susceptible to aromatization and aromatase, etc.
You can always try out the clomid/AIFM approach and see how you react. This trial and error is the only way to really get an answer.
So if going the clomid/AIFM route, this is how I would do it:
Weeks 1-12: Test plus AIFM
Weeks 13, 14, 15 (16 optional): 50mg/d of Clomid + AIFM.
You could also use clomid EOD throughout cycle at 25-50mg (with AIFM during this period of course). Then cut down PCT to 2-3 weeks (weeks 13/14 15 optional).
