HCG 5000iu - Need Advise

[PaulG]

Hi All,
I am fairly new to using gear. Just Started my second cycle in which is Testosterone only (Sustanon 250)
I am cycling while on at 500mg per week while and Choosing to cruise at 200mg per week when off. I am 45 years old and had all my kids that I want to have in life.

Anyways to the question about HCG 5000iu
I have purchased some however I am totally 100% new to this compound, I am wanting some info on how to source "bac water" as it is just in a vial as powder at this stage. Also wanting as much info on storage and dosages, mixing it etc if possible.

I am mainly wanting to use it just to keep my balls from totally shutting down long term and or staying in a shrinked state for to long etc, since I wont ever be truly 100% "off"

A Big Thank you for anyone that can help.

You’re on the right track Paul. Always good to add HCG if you’re cruising long term. You can grab bac water online. Once you mix the powder with the bac water (most guys use 1 to 2ml to make dosing easier) it has to go in the fridge and should usually be used within 30 days.

For dosing, 250 IU 2 to 3 times per week is a good maintenance sweet spot. You don’t need huge doses, smashing 1000 IU+ regularly can desensitise your Leydig cells over time.. which you don’t want. Even though you’re cruising and not totally “off,” your body still shuts down natural LH, so the HCG helps keep some testicular function going under the hood. Bonus: keeps the look and feel normal down there too.

Just pin it Subq (into belly fat) with an insulin syringe.

Sorry to ask more questions, but could you or anyone else explain to me the 5000iu and how I go about getting 250iu in one injection, I dont understand at all the amounts I will end up with in the needle and or if that will change if i mix the powder with 1ml water or 2ml water etc.

I fully understand the testosterone and its mg per ml and how to work that all out , but have no understanding of iu and watering it down etc and what i will end up with , how much in ml to draw up for the injection to get 250iu.
Sorry if this may just be common knowledge to most people, again I a newb sorry.

Actually, i think i may have just figured it out, 2ml of water with the 5000iu vial, will be 250iu per 0.1ml , hopefully thats correct.

That’s spot on. If you mix 2ml of bac water into the 5000iu vial, every 0.1ml on the insulin syringe equals 250iu. Makes dosing easy and precise. Nothing wrong with asking questions either brother, it can be confusing.

Anyone know if there can be any side effects from hcg? Anything serious to look out for, heart to do with heart, liver, kidneys, blood presure etc?

HCG’s generally safe if you’re using it properly like mentioned above. As long as you don't overdo it. Main thing is it can spike estrogen if your test jumps too much. Doesn’t really stress the liver or kidneys and not much impact on heart directly, but if it messes with your E2 levels that can mess with blood pressure indirectly. Just keep an eye on bloods and don’t mega dose it. Most guys tolerate it fine.

All the boys above nailed it Paul. HCG’s one of those compounds that’s simple once you wrap your head around it.
