What these docs who say TRT should be "cycled" miss is that the body thrives on regularity. This is a fact which simply cannot be discounted. Cycling TRT is ridiculous. And regular use of HCG provides precisely what they think intermittent breaks from TRT does (stimulation of the testes)--except it actually works.
If you are going to "cycle", then you must go off for at least two months. Pick the two months each year you want to feel lousy, while simultaneously damaging your health. Four weeks does not recover the system. And if they are using Clomid and/or HCG during that time, then the system is not "recovering"--it is being supported by the medications. Most of the "cyclers" use HCG during that four weeks. So if you are going to use it during the break, why not use it all the time? Isn't it better to keep the horse in the barn, instead of letting him out, and having to chase him across four counties. See? This strategy makes absolutely no sense.
Regular use of low-dose HCG constanlty stimulates the body where LH normally did. Does anyone really want to make the arguement that it is better to leave these receptors dormant for months at a itme, then all of a sudden stimulate with HCG for a short period? Does that make sense to anyone?
There is no evidence whatsoever that APPROPRIATE dosing of HCG causes desensitization. In fact, exactly the opposite is true.
200-400ng/dL is still being sick with hypogonadism, IMPO. You guys be the judge.
I do not concur with the TRT practices at Cenegenics.
The professional opinions you mention are not based upon much consideration for the true nature of the hormonal system, or the actions of the medications involved. If anyone thinks they can poke holes in my logic, they are welcome to try. Such critique presents the opportunity to further hone the protocols, while simultaneously shedding light on the folly of those who are still in the shadows.
