What cycle did you run mate? Did you get your blood checked?

I see, I suspect you needed to increase your hcg dosage on cycle.
Perhaps in this situation, you could blast a single dose of hcg during your PCT.
I only use HCG when I notice some atrophy occurring. HCG will desensitize your leydig cell.

I thought hcg desensitizing leydig cells came from frequently administered high doses of hcg. So utilizing higher doses, if he was already running 250-500iu's 2-3x a week, would be counter productive? I guess it would depend on how much he was running to begin with.

Yes high dose will cause oxidative stress on the leydig cells. I think 250-500 is ok, no certainty though.
There's a study showing NAC helped prevent stress to the leydig cell. So I recommend anyone using HCG, to run NAC.

I was going to say your adrenal glands are suppressed from the HCG, but you mentioned testicular atrophy. So it could be a combination.
But most importantly would be the testicles. You need to address that first. I would blast a 1500iu once. If nothing is noticed, you may need to hit an entire 5000iu amp.
If you are seeing improvement with the nolva and clomid, then ride that through, may take a little longer than expected.

Hey, the longer you stay on, the harder it is to re-cover. About 1 yr before I was diagnosed with low T, I ran a 25 wk test cycle. I jst think it gets harder and harder for the body to produce again, when its been turned off for so long. Same thing happened with my thyroid. There are studys that say the thyroid is very resilient. It wasn't really in my case, After couple years using T3 on and off long periods, I had to start Dr. Rx'd hormone replacement.
Go get tested in a month, after u try to get yourself producing again. Also if u came off because of wanting kids(IDK just guessing), I had a healthy, strong as an ox baby boy while on TRT. Got my girl preggers within first month of trying. So being on TRT doesn't mean u cant get girl pregnant. I was on tren to, wasn't done w my cycle and figured I had the time to finish as she had just stopped birth control. Hang in there
Your Desire to Change Must be Greater than Your Desire Remain the Same!!

Also, Kubes has referenced the "power pct protocol" in a few other pct threads. I believe its from William llewellyn's books. Could be worth looking into.
