  • HPTA recovery

    Found this post on another forum. Thoughts?


    "very well known guy hackskii has a protocol try it this an extract from his post.

    Here is the Doc's protocol for HPTA recovery.

    I talked to the doc today on the phone and he answered many questions for me in regards to recovery of the HPTA.
    For those of you who don***8217;t know what that is it is ***8220;Hypothalamus Pituitary Testicular Axis***8221;
    After administration of AAS, you have shutdown of the HPTA. Depending on the meds taken shutdown can be severe and much does depend on the person as well.

    This is the protocol the doc said he used in literally thousands of users with suppressed HPTA.
    First thing, the 500iu a day was not enough to make the testicles do their job, he suggested this was just a waste of time and money.
    He suggests 8 shots of HCG @ 2500iu EOD.
    With this you take 20 mg of nolvadex for 45 days.
    clomid is also taken but twice a day @ 50mg each dose 12 hours apart.

    The reason for the amounts of HCG (which is the most important part, if the balls don***8217;t fire everything else is worthless), is based on his determination to bring the balls back to life, too little wont accomplish this, too much risks damage to the Leydig cells.
    So he basically was saying that you do the HCG and around day 10 of the above protocol, you should get a blood test for testosterone. If it is above 400 or greater then this says the balls will be just fine once you get off the HCG and the clomid and nolva take over. This will accept the LH that you are putting out to maintain testicular function.
    He used the term like jumping a car. Your battery (Pituitary gland) if low wont start your car (your testicles), if you use another car and jumper cables (HCG) once the car starts your battery (HP part of the HPTA) will keep your car running.

    The clomid by itself he suggested can inhibit either the pituitary or the hypothalamus (can***8217;t remember which one) but if taken with nolva this blocks the estrogen receptors so you wont inhibit that.
    So clomid in his protocol is always taken with nolvadex ALWAYS.

    He did mention that sometimes the balls just don***8217;t take and then you do the protocol again. He said it was rare that he could not fire up the HPTA.
    He said that beings that I have good size difference (balls), feel good, strength gains, and a greasy face he felt I should have no problems with returning the HPTA.

    Some things he said was tribulis was actually inhibitory on the HPTA, great I wish I found that out after I bought two bottles.

    ZMA, he said if it made me feel good then go for it but it is placebo and the HCG, clomid, nolva was it and all that is needed.

    Talked to him about progesterone and he said never take that if you are a man (the last doc prescribed it to me)

    Sorry aftershock, I forgot to ask him about the GH question he was saying so much I was just trying to listen.

    One thing he did mention (in an article) was that HGH actually helped with the testicular recovery with things and adding that to the Protocol is a good idea and productive.

    Avoid aspirin when on HCG as it kind of ruins the effects.

    He said oxandrolone was suppressive on the HPTA, but deca and Anadrol were probably the worst in his opinion. I asked him about tren but he had no knowledge as he never used it.
    He did mention that test in itself was not all that suppressive and he has seen guys on 18 months that came off and made a full recovery in 45 days with the above protocol.

    He said one of the best ways was 12 weeks of test, followed by the above protocol, then start another 12 weeks followed by the above protocol with a month off after that then start again.

    He did say that desensitization to HCG took around 2 months, and the dose of 2500 was fine and no damage or desensitization would occur if you followed his protocol."

      Here is what I don't get people say you need to run certian amounts of test with other compounds depending on how suppressive they are. Rocket always says use test at 2-1 ratio say 500mg test 250mg tren on this type cycle for example. Why couldn't you run it 500mg tren 250mg test?? If I inject 250mg test the test is still in my system. How does shooting tren take that amount of test away from me I don't get it call me dumb hick biller idc someone explain?

          I would agree. 500iu 2-3x/week is plenty to get the balls firing again.

            500iu's every 3/4 days is sufficient. Article is stupid.

              thats exactly how a lot of guys are doing it now a days... the idea is let the tren do all the work and add test as a base. i havent tried it out

                  to be clear he's talking about an "HCG blast" at the end of a cycle. An HCG blast starts first day after last pin and runs 8-10 days BEFORE PCT but never into PCT. the idea is your prepping the balls to start producting test by reversing atrophy and jump starting the balls. the claim is this is a much better method. I dont know of anyone on this site who does it that way but its fairly common practice around the boards.

                  So the difference is most guys (especially on this site) run HCG through out the entire cycle at 500iu's. Hes idicating that isnt the best way and there can be problems (accorded to this guy) with doing that. IDK how I feel just a discussion...

                    I onkly read up to the part where you take 2500ius HCG 8 times and I had to stop that info is from the 80s and proven to be wrong.

                      that is just a safe rule of thumb that is not set in stone as we are all different. I suggest that as that is a great place to start (safest) you can adjust from there.
                      I personaly dont need 2-1 but that dont mean you wont. BUt I will need HCG and It will shut me down hard
                      I also dont need nolva on test even up to 1000mgs but that dont mean B wont need it as we know he does.

                        More and More Failed PCTs...
                        I’ve discussed this topic a number of times with some of the veterans on this board and they know my position on the subject of PCT.

                        Now, I feel compelled to address it openly because I see more and more of what I characterized as “failed PCTs.” Heck, there must be one thread every other day on someone’s unsuccessful attempt to recover. So, I perceive that there is a need for this discussion and I’ll give my viewpoint accordingly.

                        First, it seems that the use of HCG on cycle has created, for many, a false sense of security regarding the continuous function of their testes while on cycle. Yes, 250 iu or 500 iu of HCG a week while on cycle **may** keep your testes functional but most never really know, they just ASSUME. That is the first mistake I regularly see. This assumption often leads to the next mistake which is…

                        SERM only PCT and no, it is not enough! I know many will argue this point and say “If it is only a light cycle SERM only PCT is OK.” To that, I say, look at all the 500mg test for 12 week cycles that have tried the SERM only approach and failed. It is not enough.
                        Finally, there is a general lack of accounting for the AMOUNT and HALF LIVE of the AAS used on cycle. Specificly, you don’t want to start your PCT while you still have supra-physiological levels of AAS in your system. What is a non-supra-physiological level? To keep it simple, it is the point where there is less than 200 mg of an active AAS in your system. That is not a perfect estimate but it will work for most people. By taking the time to do this math, you will greatly improve your chance at recover. So, account for the dosage and drug(s) used in planning your PCT

                        For long esters (cyp/ent/deconate) estimate 7 days half life

                        If you ran 1000 mg of test cyp/ent a week then plan to start the HCG blast between 17-21 days after your last shot.

                        How did I get that? Simple…using the 7 day half life estimate.

                        @ 1000mg a week of test cyp/ent 7 days after your last shot there is 500 mg active in the blood. 14 days after the last shot, there is 250 mg active in the blood, at 21 days after the last shot, there is 125 mg active in the blood.

                        It doesn’t matter what the drug is it only matters what ester is attached to it. So, make sure you do the homework and look up the half life for your drugs and figure out how long it will take you to approximate “normal blood levels.”

                        So what is the answer? A comprehensive PCT plan that address all parts of the recovery process. Yes, that means an HCG blast, even if you use HCG on cycle! It includes 2 SERMS because they work syngerisitcly together to enhance test levels, and an AI to mitigate aromatization that will cause suppression of the HPTA through the feedback loop.

                        Many will say “you don’t need HCG and two SERMs, and an AI for PCT. That is just overkill.”

                        To that I’d say, maybe, but would you rather go overboard and make sure your get HPTA recover or not go far enough and remain shutdown? That is what we are really talking about here, right, recover? So why try to skimp or take the lightest PCT possible when there is no real harm in going the whole 9 nine yards and doing everything possible to ensure recover?

                        Okay, so now I’ve stated my position. What do I suggest? Well, I suggest what I just did to exit from 2 years of HRT. By the way, it is very similar to the PCT that I’ve used on myself for almost 20 years and with countless others. The blood tests I’ve collected over the years support its effectiveness. In fact, I just tested at 1048 ng/dl on my last blood draw.

                        I’ve linked a Google Doc spreadsheet with the protocol that I found to be most Effective.
