TRT with HCG, are you shooting blanks?

[Dale338]

Ok, so studies show that after months of being on TRT, it is like 98-99% affective for birth control. This does not mean you cannot become fertile again, but your chances of knocking up a woman are nil. I understand HCG also helps preserve and bring back fertility in men. HOWEVER, what does it mean when you've been on TRT for say 8 months and periodically use HCG? Are you still shooting blanks until you come off TRT?

I can find studies done on all this except my question.

TRT alone equals 99% affective birth control
HCG, can bring back fertility, but most will come off TRT when wanting to get the ole lady pregnant.
But what about being on both TRT and HCG?

The only way to tell is get a semen analysis done.

My current wife and i have been seeing a fertility doc for 8 months now. I can tell you i was on tren, test and slin during my first Semen analysis and I got 5.9 million with 70% motility(while taking the fertility meds). 20 million is the low cut off for normal range. But 70% motility was great. 3 months completely off gear and trt with dosing HCG and Clomid, i got my numbers up to 17 million with 89% motility.


Plain and simple, unless you want the high costs of IUI and/or IVF.... dump the trt for a while. Fyi... IVF meds for one round for my wife alone was 4K. That did not include the process which is another 5-8K.

You can still get a girl pregnant while being on TRT for years. Everyone is different and I use HcG on and off but mostly on.
It’s cheap and my nuts are almost normal size not quite, it also makes my loads massive.
Definitely not shooting blanks...

There are NO such studies showing 90+% infertility on TRT. The studies show ~50%.

I been shut down for a long time. The last time I got someone pregnant was over 10 years ago after cycle on clomid. After that I never cycled off properly and was never to impregnate any girl I was with. Now with my current relationship we want a child. I have been taking hcg with my trt at 500mg twice a week and found out a couple weeks ago she got pregnant. Bad news is it was a miscarriage. I will keep trying.

Good luck my friend. My wife and I share your struggle.

Time to get sniped I guess. I'm on the opposite end of most of you. I do NOT want kids. Mine is raised, I'm 50 and dating some younger hot women. Some not on birth control. I always ask if they'd be willing to terminate if it happened and they all say, "of course" but you know how that goes. TRAPPED!!
