I have to disagree with the negative statements about HCG in this thread.
The amounts, 2000IU in this post are very high and its these high doses that create a concern for down regulation of the LH receptors. Research has shown that 250I E2D/EOD preserves baseline intratesticular testosterone levels. And a point made in that research is that those findings should be used as the basis of lower dosing. Before that study, there has not been any research based information to guide dosing.
I provide the research into to my Dr. and he changed my HRT HCG to 250IU EOD. I feel that it is working well compared to 250IU twice a week.
The only reason to be concerned with HCG and LH receptor downgrading is from doses that are too high.
this shit aint even present in L Rea’s books CME or BTPB.
only mention of cabergoline any where in the books:
“Interesting is that the use of progestin-like AAS such as nandrolone and trenbolone will usually result in an increase in prolactin secretion. The employment of drugs such as [b]cabergoline [/b](0.25-0.5mg 2xW) bromocriptine (2.5-5.0mg/d) or
mirtazapine for 2-4 weeks post use normally brings prolactin levels back to normal or below. This results in increased HPTA function, improved determent from accumulative female pattern fat and significantly heightened libido.”
