rFSH instead of HCG

Has anyone every run rFSH in lieu of HCG just to maintain fertility? Indian rFSH wouldn't but hugely different than HCG from a TRT clinic. I get shitty orgasms and have an all around worse sex life without HCG but the estrogenic side affects of HCG are rough. On 500iu 2x weekly I have to 4x my AI dose to keep the estrogen sides at bay. I'm thinking of trying 37.5iu rFSH 2x weekly and assess from there.
 
Unfortunately I dont have any good info to contribute, but this is actually next on my list of things to tackle. HCG spikes my e2 crazy. Same dosage and schedule as you. Tried EOD administration but same thing. Dropped everything for my cycle except testosterone base (200mg). Leveling out, getting new "baseline" readings at 200mg and will reconsider hcg again after.

I've been told the "hcg" replacements (I forgot the name.. gonadatropin or gonadorelin I think) arent nearly as good as hcg itself, but I dont have personal experience with it. Definitely interested in the topic. Following

Thanks. It'll be another week or 2 while I use up my current vial of HCG and then washout alittle before I run the experiment.
 
Running 37.5iu of rFSH 2x per week for 2 weeks. So far I'm pleased. I have blood work pending to see what E2 is doing but I've halved by Asin dose and have no E2 sides.

On a side note, loads have been pornstar level big. Not something I was looking for, but a nice perk to have. Without HCG they were pitiful. On HCG they were slightly more than normal. rFSH is 150% of normal.

The experiment continues.
 
E2 came back at 33. Previous measurement was 43 on more AI. So I think its safe to conclude that rFSH is atleast less estrogenic than HCG.
Just to be sure, are your pulling labs at trough? Same as previous test?

Hows the libido? Do you feel better? Testes still plump up?
 
Can't guarantee its exactly the same but its pretty darn close. Libido is similar or slightly better than 500iu HCG 2x weekly. Balls are still good and I haven't gotten that ache I get when I don't have HCG in the mix.

I've been microdosing Tren and one side affect has been that orgasms have been harder to come by but this has definitely made it easier. Unclear if thats from lower e2 or activating some other pathway that was previously vacant.
