question from a user

Is there research on recovery if anyone wants to stop or has to stop due to medical reasons? Can they actually recover their natural production? Does that chance drastically improve if they use something like HCG during treatment?

AlphaMD's Answer

You can read the research here.

Basically, after stopping TRT, natural testosterone production returns to its previous levels within 3 months after the last injection. Sperm production took longer, usually 6 months though in some cases it took 1 year to return to pre-TRT levels.

Use of hCG speeds the recovery process. So if it normally would take 3 months, it may take closer to 6 weeks to return to pre-TRT levels. hCG speeds natural T production after TRT, but it has greater effect on speeding spermatogenesis
