After a steroid cycle, the hormone gonadotropin (hCG) is used to stimulate the testes to produce testosterone naturally. Steroids suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, causing testicular shrinkage and reduced testosterone production. hCG mimics luteinizing hormone (LH), signaling the testes to restart testosterone synthesis, helping prevent testicular atrophy and speeding up recovery. Using hCG after steroids supports hormonal balance and maintains muscle gains. For more information, visit
