HCG? post cycle or during cycle

drluv

Is it better to run hcg post or during cycle. I have found a lot of contradicting opinions.

For example some people say it is better to run during cycle. But some say this is not the best idea as your testicles will stop producing LH because the HCG is run for long periods. So the theory of during cycle for long period is wrong.

On the other hand some people say it is better to run post cycle. Then the critics of this approach claim HCG at high dosage will desensitise your testicles to LH.

So which theory is correct or they both wrong.

I didn't think people generally run it post cycle, but towards the end.

So the 2 options are during or end of cycle? I'm no HCG buff so someone please correct me if incorrect.


PCT with Nolva or Clomid to be run post cycle.

from what i have read on hcg the best way to use it is to use it during a cycle at a dose of between 250iu-500iu every 3.5 days about 3 weeks into your cycle when your testicles start to suffer, and stop the hcg a week b4 the steroids are due to leave your system so you are ready for pct. imo.

I use 500 i.u twice per week during cycle as it keeps nasty shut down away

yup, do not use it for as a part of pct...if your going to use it, use it during cycle...

drluv

But some people claim that runnig it during cycle for a long period is not advised as your testicles will stop producing LH naturally or something along those lines

SoulCard

not in small doses...but also why some only run it last two weeks of cycle...the concept is, however, that small doses through cycle meets the goal

i don't like to run it during a cycle, don't find it's necessary. and i don't believe that your body won't down regulate leutenizing hormone production if hcg is used in small doses. this doesn't ring true with any other drug i use so why should it with hcg ? if you're taking enough of the stuff to have effect, you can be sure your body will cotton on to what's happening and adjust it's endogenous hormone levels accordingly.
I also don't like to think i'm increasing aromatisation while still 'on', why would i chose to do this? and there is now way i'm using AI's or anti e's all the way through a cycle and after as well. I've read the data supporting on cycle use, and it does make sense, but i'll stick to what i initially learned and how to use it. i've had no problems this far either during or after a course, and i see no reason to switch.

sitries

im using it throughout the cycle. but after hearing some people opinions im satrting to wonder if this was the best idea. iv spoken to a few ppl who think its best just to take a few large shots in the last few weeks of the cycle and then continue with a normal PCT.

Am i doing damage by using hcg over a 12week period???

I'd like to know the answer to sitries q aswell, but also if it is advised to take it near the end, what dosages do you guys recommend?

thanks
