I wanted to know why we don’t use HCG or at least its frowned upon on these forums?
read my question about HCG that I just posted earlier today. Don't make these guys repeat themselves again.![]()
Many bodybuilders are under the incorrect misconception that HCG usage will help them recover post cycle or keep testicular shrinkage to a minimum while on cycle. I am not sure where this misconception came from but it is very incorrect. HCG is extracted from pregnant female urine. You read that correctly. It is a form of estrogen and causes estrogen levels to rise. High estrogen levels can lead to gynecomastia, increased body fat levels and water retention. Even worse, if HCG is used for too long or in high enough doses, it will inhibit your own testosterone production due to the negative feedback loop via the pituitary gland and hypothalamus.
I have read up a lot on the HCG purposes and why it is pretty well useless but help me out here out of my own personal curiosity. I can guess an answer to this but thought you may have some more insight.
Do you know why a Hormone Dr like mine would give HCG to me with my TRT when I see him?
He charges me the same with or without it due to the blood tests and Test shots as well as the Arimidex he gives to me just in case at a 1/4 tab a week plus the shot of HCG weekly and I’ve asked him what it would cost without the HCG last visit and he said it’s the same cost for the visit and test and the rest is just a part of the TRT scripts thrown in.

It's the same reason why so many bodybuilders still use HCG - it's parroted misinformation.
Most doctors don't actually question anything they are taught. They just take it for a matter of fact.
VERY few people are critical thinkers and actually question why.
If a doctor actually took some time to research HCG, what it does, how it works etc. they wouldn't keep prescribing it.
Kind of like how doctors constantly prescribe antibiotics when they aren't needed. They don't care. It's just a 9-5 job to them
Do you take it?Used for blood to get back in the balls.
Do you take it?
