HCG and brain fog/fatigue

I started my first 8 weeks of trt (100-120mg) without HCG just to see the effects of testosterone by itself. Everything was great so in added 200 IUs of HCG 3x per week hoping to maintain function until I try to conceive next year.

With the HCG I’ve just been so exhausted to the point it detracts from the benefits of the trt. I dropped down to 100 IUs 3x per week hoping to titrate back up as my body adapts, but it doesn’t seem to be working like that. I can’t imagine doing thousands of IUs per week of this when I’m actively trying to conceive.

My prescribing clinic gave me gonadorelin but based off what I’ve read I just went with HCG from UGLs

I’ve seen other posts here about the same thing, and I’m wondering if anyone has found a workaround to this issue. DIM? Gonadorelin until I want a kid? Even less HCG? I’d appreciate any insight you all have. Thanks
