Has anyone tried HMG in place of HCG or along with it, been reading alot about it and it seems superior to HCG and the other PCT drugs.

No one has tried this, it seems to be getting pretty popular on some other boards.

HMG and HCG are slightly different and are used for increasing fertility as well as hypogonadism. HMG is used to stimualte spermatogenisis while HCG is used to return endogenous testosterone levels back to normal.
The difference is FSH...see below.
P

The body produces two types of gonadotropins: follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). After they are produced by the pituitary gland, gonadotropins trigger production of other sex hormones. Gonadotropins therefore play a part in egg and sperm production, as well as female and male physical traits such as voice, muscle, hair, and breast development.

Human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) and recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) are gonadotropin fertility drugs.

* hMG contains natural FSH and LH, purified from urine from postmenopausal women. (After menopause, women produce high levels of gonadotropins, which are excreted in their urine.)

* rFSH is genetically synthesized in the laboratory.

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is similar to LH. It contains equal amounts of LH and FSH. These hormones play a central role in egg production.
How It Works

In men with low testosterone and FSH. LH stimulates the production of testosterone, and FSH promotes the formation of sperm. If a semen analysis, LH testing, and FSH testing suggest that abnormal hormone levels are preventing sperm production, these gonadotropins may be prescribed together to promote sperm formation. The man gets an hCG injection 3 times weekly until blood testosterone level is within the normal range (this may take 4 to 6 months). Treatment continues with injections of hCG 2 times a week and hMG or FSH 3 times a week until the sperm count rises to normal levels.
