Q: “How can I best use HCG between steroid cycles?” A: My most common recommendation with HCG is to use it only during cycles to avoid testicular atrophy and to maintain testicular responsiveness. When this is done, then as soon as LH production is restored with SERM use or with time, the testes are immediately […]

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and Post Cycle Therapy (PCT)
Q: “How should HCG be used in post-cycle therapy (PCT)?” A: Ideally, HCG should not be used at all in PCT. For steroid cycles, HCG really should only be used in PCT if a mistake has been made which needs a correction. When it’s used in PCT, the purpose is to correct testicular non-responsiveness or […]
What You Need to Know about Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG)
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) (not to be confused with human growth hormone, or HGH) is a glycoprotein hormone that mimics LH (luteinizing hormone), produced in pregnancy by the developing embryo soon after conception, and later by part of the placenta. Its role is to prevent the disintegration of the corpus luteum of the ovary and […]

Should I Inject HCG Intramuscularly or Subcutaneously?
Q: I have heard some people say to inject HCG intramuscularly and some say subcutaneously. Which one is it? A: One should always inject hCG subcutaneously. The simplest reason is the comfort of the injection; less trauma to tissues; and decreased risk of infection. Subcutaneous versus intramuscular are equally effective. As far as the kinetics […]
How Do I Use HCG with Steroids?
Q: What’s the logic behind all the different timing and dosing of HCG ?? We hear taking it every day, every other day, every 3rd, 4th, or 5th day. What about the dosing ? I hear to take it easy to prevent desensitizing the testes. With this you hear anywhere from 100 units to 250 […]
Can I Make Good Gains with a Winstrol and Anadrol Stack?
Hi Bill, I’m very limited in my choices for a cycle. A friend has a pretty good amount of tablets left over that he’ll let me have, but his source has disappeared and I don’t know where else to go. All there is is Winstrol and Anadrol. Can I make a good cycle out of […]
Bodybuilder’s Guide to Using hCG with Anabolic Steroids
HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is provided as a glycoprotein powder to be diluted with water and taken by injection, either intramuscularly or subcutaneously. It acts in the body like luteinizing hormone (LH), stimulating the testes to produce testosterone even when natural LH is not present or is deficient. It therefore is useful for maintaining testosterone […]
Jose Canseco Detained by Customs Over HCG and Released Only After Agreeing to Search of Home
Customs officials in San Diego desperately wanted to know “what’s Jose Canseco on now?” San Diego Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) searched and detained Canseco for over nine hours after being caught with a bottle of human chorionic goandotropin (hCG). Customs officials refused to release Canseco unless he allowed them to search his Southern California home. U.S. […]
