Cycle Goal
To fully reactivate the body’s natural hormonal axis (HPTA) after completing a steroid cycle.
The goal is to maintain muscle gains, stabilize mood and libido, and restore endogenous testosterone levels.
Cycle Duration
4–6 weeks total, depending on the intensity and length of the previous cycle.
Compounds & Dosages
| Compound | Brand | Dosage | Frequency | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clomiphene Citrate (Clomid) | Magnus | 50 mg/day (first 2 weeks), then 25 mg/day | Daily (oral) | Stimulates LH/FSH release, restores natural testosterone |
| Tamoxifen Citrate (Nolvadex) | Magnus | 40 mg/day (first 2 weeks), then 20 mg/day | Daily (oral) | Blocks estrogen receptors, prevents gynecomastia, supports recovery |
| Gonadotropin (hCG) | Magnus | 500 IU every 3 days (total ~1500 IU/week) | Intramuscular/Subcutaneous | Reactivates testicular function and size, boosts testosterone before SERM phase |

Protocol Explanation
-
hCG phase (Weeks 1–2):
Prepares the testes by stimulating Leydig cells to resume natural testosterone production before SERMs are introduced.
Purpose: Prevent testicular atrophy and ensure faster recovery. -
SERM phase (Weeks 3–6):
Combination of Clomid + Nolvadex directly triggers pituitary LH and FSH release while keeping estrogen activity blocked at receptor level.
Purpose: Restart the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis (HPTA) and stabilize hormone balance.
Support Supplements
-
Zinc + Vitamin D3 – essential for testosterone synthesis.
-
Omega-3 fatty acids – support hormone balance and recovery.
-
NAC or Milk Thistle – liver detox support post-cycle.
-
Ashwagandha / Tribulus – natural testosterone support (optional).
⚠️ Warnings
-
Never use hCG for more than 3 weeks consecutively — risk of desensitizing the testes.
-
Do not overlap hCG with Clomid/Nolvadex; hCG should precede SERMs.
-
Avoid alcohol and stress during recovery — both suppress testosterone.
-
Blood test (LH, FSH, Test, E2) is recommended before and after PCT.

-
Gradual return of libido and energy
-
Stabilized mood and hormonal balance
-
Preservation of 80–90% of cycle muscle gains (with proper diet)
