Guns is right that HCG is supressive but I will add that HCG will get the boys working again pretty well. There is a rebound after use but it leave me in a far better spot than just using a serm like clomid or nolva. I have done TRT for decades and when I come off I can still get natty T to 300+. If you use HCG with clomid if that is all you have then work with you can get some of your natty test back but it will take time and as an old guy I can tell you, it sucks.

I always wait 3 weeks if on a longer ester, I start with a double dose of serm and 1000 iu of HCG 3x a week. I run hcg for two weeks then continue the serm for 2 more weeks at a regular dose. I have read it is better to do HCG at a lower dose EOD and may try this next time. All I learned about PCT was from 25 years ago and it works. I do not know about HMG but I reckon it works too.

i think the thing with HCG being suppressive is it gets the motor warmed up and then when you stop it, you are ahead of the game and not starting at zero.

I monkied around with supplement test boosters and I found that some of them work pretty well. I judge this on my sex drive and energy. If you cannot get HCG, try tribulus extract and other herbals. I think they help some. Watch this vid, Huberman is sharp.
