question from a user
I'm currently taking half a ML a week of pregnyl on top of half a ML of test cypionate, with that dosage a bottle would last me 20 weeks. The shelf life is only 60 days, should I just throw half a bottle away ever two months or just use it past the shelf life/use more HCG? I was on 1ML 3x week then 2ML 3x a week of pregnyl until my wife became pregnant and I swapped to test Cypionate to treat my hypogonadism. Is it worth even taking the hcg or should I have a conversation with my Dr about alternatives?

So, the "shelf-life" is how long an FDA medication can "gurantee" sterility after puncture. The actual medication in the vial remains viable for up to one year so long as you use sterile precautions when puncturing the vial and it remains refrigerated.
Taking hCG while on TRT basically is used to maintain fertility. You should discuss this with your doctor if that is your goal.
