question from a user

I have a brand new vial of HCG I need to reconstitute. Would you recommend that I drop the progesterone or continue it while I reintroduce HCG? (Regarding dropping TRT levels, I understand I was taking way too high of a dose when I first started with one of your competitors. Now, I'm in the higher range of normal.)

AlphaMD's Answer

While we recommend you speak to your doctor regarding your protocol, our recommendation would be to take only hCG or progesterone; not both. Taking both risks an excess on the hormone cascade, and since your body will recognize you have enough T already, it will likely result in producing too much cortisol and other unwanted hormones.
