some background: I'm 21 (almost 22) and have been using PEDs since I was 19, on and off but I've been on for most of the 3 years.

I'm currently on TRT @ 125mg Test cypionate weekly + 50mg anavar and I'm starting to feel some slightly high E sides like iritability,
water retention, and gyno.

I want to lower my dose to 75mg test C weekly and add HCG to bring back natural production of T, any thoughts on this? I do eventually plan to hop off for good next year though.

Did you use any HCG earlier in your journey?
 
There is two different issues here with this. Getting high E sides on only 125mg a week is very unusual, and the idea with TRT is you utilize a dose that doesn't require an Ai.

Secondly, using HCG to bring everything online can be a very good idea and some men say they could not do TRT without HCG. Many argue that aside from staying fertile HCG plays a big role in backfilling neurosteroids that can potentially be thrown off by exogenous testosterone such as DHEA or pregnenolone. To add to this however, HCG will only worsen your symptoms because it typically raises estrogen. The best solution is to pin more frequently. I hope you are already pinning twice a week.
