Info: Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) was first discovered and isolated at about the onset of the 20th Century. During pregnancy, it is a hormone produced by the placenta and as early research shows essential for maintaining pregnancy.In bodybuilding circles, it is common practice to use HCG when trying to recuperate from a cycle of anabolic steroids so as to boost & maintain one's normal testosterone levels. This encompasses preventing the shrinking of a man's testes & expediting his recovery phase in a process known as post cycle therapy (PCT).

Effects

The use of HCG also supports the elevation of testosterone, which assists in the retention of muscle mass and strength, specifically after utilizing anabolic steroids when the body’s natural testosterone is diminished. It is frequently employed in PCT to help in the restoration of typical testosterone levels after anabolic steroids have been administered. This helps in preventing situations whereby one is wiped out by the amount that one has gained in the cycle. As for male factor, HCG may be effective in enhancing fertility through increasing sperm production, especially where it has been affected by steroids. It is helpful in regulating hormones; in situations where the body is thrown out of its normal hormonal cycle resulting from the use of substances that enhance performance.
