Default Re: Anabolic Steroid Induced Hypogonadism (ASIH) by Michael Scally, MD

OK, here is what I did to come off TRT and had a fantastic recovery.
HCG @ 2500iu's EOD x 8 shots
Clomid 50mg twice a day (12 hrs apart 100mg total) for 30 days.
Nolvadex 20mg for 45 days.

Worked fantastic.
I found the HCG worked best taken in late afternoon (noticed better morning wood).

I did talk to Scally on the phone about my questions.
An AI is not taken during PCT.
I was told testicular size is a poor indicator of testicular function.

He suggested to me that around day 10 to get my test levels checked (during the above protocol) to see if the HCG could be stopped due to normal testicular function (testosterone production), if testosterone levels were within normal range then HCG could be stopped and the clomid and nolvadex continued.

ZMA is not necessary for recovery but you can use it and I did.

He said recovery takes around 45 days using the above protocol but could take anywhere from 6 to 18 months with no PCT for recovery.

Avoid aspirin when using HCG.

The above is what I did comming off TRT and absolutly felt awesome.
I know of two other guys that followed the same protocol as myself and had success as well.
