What is HCG 5000 IU?
HCG 5000 IU from Generic Peptides (Pregnyl) is a human chorionic gonadotropin peptide used by bodybuilders to maintain natural testosterone production during and after anabolic steroid cycles. It acts like luteinizing hormone (LH), stimulating the testes to produce testosterone, preserve fertility, and prevent testicular atrophy caused by suppressed endogenous hormone output.
Main Effects
- Stimulates natural testosterone production
- Prevents testicular atrophy on cycle
- Supports fertility and hormonal balance
- Maintains libido, mood, and energy
- Speeds hormonal recovery after cycles
How Bodybuilders Use It
Most athletes run HCG at 500–1000 IU 2–3 times weekly during long cycles to maintain testicular function or at 1000–1500 IU every other day for 2 weeks as part of post-cycle therapy (PCT). It's injected subcutaneously or intramuscularly to quickly restore natural testosterone production.
Recommended Stacks
- HCG + Clomid during PCT to restart testosterone production
- HCG + Nolvadex for full post-cycle hormonal recovery
- HCG + BPC-157 to protect joints while hormones rebalance
- HCG + CJC-1295 to support GH release during recovery
- HCG + DSIP to improve sleep and recovery post-cycle
Side Effects and Control
HCG is usually well tolerated. Rare side effects include mild water retention or mood swings, which can be managed by moderating doses and limiting use to short cycles. Monitoring hormones via bloodwork ensures safe use.
