question from a user
If your LH levels are low as well as your testosterone levels, would you be a good candidate for hcg as opposed to trt? And do your levels stay elevated if you cease hcg?
AlphaMD's Answer
For those with low LH (secondary hypogonadism), hCG monotherapy can work well to raise testosterone.
Once you stop treatment, levels will return back to your baseline. They will not remain elevated.
