HCG and Bodybuilding: Unlocking Potential or Myths Busted?
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is a hormone valued by the bodybuilding community, especially for its role in post-cycle therapy (PCT) following anabolic steroid use. HCG is not an anabolic steroid but mimics the luteinizing hormone (LH), stimulating the testes to produce testosterone. This is crucial in preventing issues like testicular atrophy and maintaining muscle mass. The hormone offers benefits such as aiding in mood enhancement and maintaining libido, but it’s vital to use HCG under medical supervision to avoid risks like gynecomastia and hormonal imbalances.
