HCG Questions
-
Has anyone taken HCG? Any negative/positive side effects?
-
I took 500IU a few times. By itself, it was only estrogenic. With enclomiphene, it felt androgenic. I’m only able to tolerate it with enclo, so I won’t take it long term.
The positives when taken w/ enclo were mostly mental and libido. The combo is more powerful than just taking enclo.

@Mallard6146 thank you

I had a brief stint with it at 150iu 3 times weekly (PFS recovery protocol, the other forum has a very long thread titled "finally cured from post finasteride syndrome). To gauge effects, had very slight androgenic properties that occured over the course of 4 weeks (slightly increased libido, focus, energy) but these doses are way under the typical. I stopped because stabbing myself in the abdomen 3 times a week outweighed the benefits, but there were benefits none the less.

Aren’t you the guy who actually made that HCG thread on the RPF? You were basically implying that you’d found a miraculous cure from what I was reading on your initial post a while back. I didn’t read the whole thread.
It sounds like you didn’t even really experiment with it properly, which is strange considering the direction that thread appeared to be going in, with lots of posters contributing, and enthusiastic by what you were proposing.
What changed? Jabbing a needle into subcutaneous belly fat really isn’t that much of a big deal. It doesn’t hurt, and takes literally a minute to do. Nothing else put you off HCG?

@DukesBobby777 If you skimmed even a tiny portion of that thread you would know I didn't start it considering OP finished his course of HCG and I'm pretty sure OP recovered and moved on. The thread is thousands of posts long and details probably over a dozen ways multiple people have cured their PFS from injecting low dose HCG to oral Lithium, it is an archive of self experimentation and anecdotal evidence, judge that however you want but listening to doctors on issues like this doesn't get most people anywhere.
Mixing solution and jabbing your abdomen IS annoying and as I stated the positive effects were only very slight...my OP in this thread explains your questions perfectly fine. Sounds like you'd do fine though so why not give it a whirl and find out?
-
Yeah, I clearly got you both mixed up. I don’t remember the thread all that well. I think I remember the name ‘Joe’ from the OP, so maybe that’s why I’ve gotten you mixed up. So it was actually him I was interested in, not you.
I already take HCG and TRT (hence my comment about it not being a big deal).

Worth knowing...
and
peatbot: Peatbot: HCG, or human chorionic gonadotropin, is a hormone that is important for the health and intelligence of babies, particularly during pregnancy as it helps in strengthening the placenta. However, there are concerns about its use outside of pregnancy. It is suggested that HCG could promote the growth of hidden cancers, as some cancers produce HCG and it might have similar effects to pregnancy in accelerating cancer growth. Therefore, it is considered risky to use HCG for purposes such as weight loss until it can be shown that it does not promote cancer growth. Additionally, while HCG might help in treating some kinds of hypoglycemia, it should not be used or suppressed mindlessly.
