Doc, im a scientist myself, and ive learnt that im not going to get the answers on pubmed or sciencedirect, yes there are some studies which we are able to use to gain some knowledge but never forget that the population we are dealing with is totally bizzare and out of the ordinary. Even if you found and read 2000 studies on HCG treatment in chronic hypogonadsim, not one of those studies will prove anything, their hypogonadism was not caused by extreme doses of exogenous testosterone. We are looking at a diffent pathology. Same goes with most arguments in this particular post.
To become a real guru i dont think you need to spend hours and hours reading scientific research, you will not find 1 study in a reputable journal investigating HCG protocols in AAS users. Neither will you find any paper investigating gynocomastea issues while using oxymetholone.
Spend some time on some of the big boards/forums, meet some of those "experts" they have figured out what works in this bizzare population. I have personally learnt allot from boards like Elitefitness, although there is a lot of bullshit on there you will learn a hell of a lot -- and all of it will be real world feedback, that is all we have to work with.
Ok so here goes my HCG opinion, if you are not going to run it during, run it BEFORE PCT commences like Mat originally had, I believe recovery wont occur untill HCG treatment is over. Get your balls up and then commence PCT. But still why not use it during cycle???? 250IU 2X per week is what is recommended and DOC, even some HRT docs are starting tp prescribe this dose for males oin testosterone replacement. HERE IT IS (File Removed)
