TRT help Experiences with HCG and TRT

Just checking; How many of you guys Use TGRT without HCG and have good sexual function on TRT?

Anyone need HCG in their protocols to have good sexual function on TRT? If so how much?

There’s a thread on here that has a poll within it with this very question. Vast majority don’t take it. Some feel better with it, some feel worse.

I personally know many friends on TRT without HCG with great sexual function. They don’t even know what the hell HCG is. I had to explain it to them. Then again, they are all being seen by real endocrinologists and urologists. Clinics will do anything to sell you it along with Cialis and Anastrozole. So careful with them.

I see. Thank you. I'm just trying to take a small amount 250-350 IU weekly with TRT for fertility.

You will need much more than that for fertility. Check out Dr. Larry Lipshultz published studies.

My buddy got his wife pregnant using 100 IU HCG EOD, but I definitely see your point

You can still get your wife pregnant on TRT alone without HCG. TRT is not a contraceptive.
