Coming Off TRT after 6 Months?

@icedog198

Weeks 1-4:
Continue Testogel 1 50mg satchet every day.
HCG 250iu EOD

Weeks 5-8:
Half-satchet of Testogel every day (4 weeks taper down on the test)
HCG 250iu EOD

Seems like a long time get off Testogel…I believe that stuff only has a half life of 8 hours so I would consider that.

@icedog198

This will be my first time taking HCG. Is 8 weeks typically enough to get the testicles and fertility back online?

the HPTA restart sticky recommends getting labs after 4-6 weeks to check TT FT E2 (assuming no outside testosterone) to see if you begin producing T. This still of course bypasses the HPTA but it rules out primary hypogonadism.

@icedog198

Is the nolvadex plan too long?

Again I refer to the HPTA restart sticky and it is 20 mg Nolvadex EOD for 4-6 weeks (then labs again). If things are good then taper off.
