My doc and uro, and previous endo are all ignorant of HCG. I actually

brought it up once with my endo, who was supposed to be well respected

in the field, and he said he'd never heard of testicular atrophy on

TRT. I beleive what Dr Crisler has to say about the whole issue

regarding TRT, and that's why I self inject HCG. I do 250iu every

other day, because I'm currently on Androgel. It's the same way around

here with the arimidex, docs claim they haven't heard of E2/Estradiol

and won't test for it, so I have to go my own route there, too. It's a

shame that Docs don't have total knowledge base of TRT therapy.

Watch the HCG, it has messed me up. According to Dr. Crisler I am one

of the lucky few who it effects negatively. Made my balls firmer but

also made me feel like my estrogen was high, i have much better

erections and am able to orgasm a LOT easier when I stop taking

it. Never made me feel good in any way even when we cut the dose

in half. I was on 100 iu daily then went to 100 iu every other day

and now I have just stopped it. better but still not 100%

sexually...very frustrated with this whole thing....
