hmmm I like using roacutane pre show and I’ve never had this issue.. tbh being blunt.. as soon as the show is over and I eat something shit I have a hard on immediately and want to get it on !

definately get bloods done.. must be something going on. sorry as I wish I could advise more

James, you say “pre-show”: purely for acne then, or for another reason too? Also, how long do you run it pre-show then? Asking to get an idea about how long it takes Accutane to work.

[Gain]

ideally you’d have had them done before starting course

to prevent gyno again typcially you would run low dose of A.I along Side the test

most would be fine with what I do

I use Aromasin just 1 tab per week broken into two.. each taken on the injection days

half a tablet equates to 12.5mg

James, I know there’s no exact answer, but to much Arimidex would this equal? (based on the 25mg aromasin you mentioned)

It’s a vaso dilator. Increases blood flow around the body to the Penis to help erections.

So this benefit will help muscles to

Thanks Hilly. So this product doesn’t increase blood flow in a selective way (selective area)? I mean: it increases blood flow everywhere just as much, or is there still a mechanism linked to it which makes it specifically better for the penis than the rest of the body (muscles)?

1 – how drugs effect people hair is to individual for any one to tell
You this bud unfortunately.

2 – for me I think no one drug should be ran for longer than 8-14 weeks dependant on cycle set up n goals

3 – NPP is an awesome drug for gains. In my opinion if your not impressed it’s because your gear not great or your diet/training suck as even those I have seen run with poor genetics like myself are impressed with it.

4 – please see my answer to number 1.

With hair it’s just genetic. I’ve taken all types of AAS n a fAir few types of reccies in my time n my hair line is great.

My brother has done 2 very small
Cycles in his life under my guidance, never partied or done reccies n his hair line is brutal.

15 plus of my friends have all had transplants in the last 12 months. Only 60% use gear.

It’s just to individual

Thanks for commenting, Hilly. Understand it’s hard to give concrete advice since indeed something individual as you say. However, I was just wondering if it’s more common for 19 nor’s to cause such problems (compared to for example a test only cycle in somewhat higher dosages).

You also mention you prefer not to run a compound longer than 8 to 14 weeks. But knowing that we can’t desynthesize to anabolics, what would you say is the reason for this? For example, imagine being on-cycle for a looong time and bloods are still fine on that cycle, would you then still swith compounds or go into a cruise and why?

Just trying to understand your way of thinking! Thanks.

Fish – fish seasoning or cinnamon

Beef – Italian herbs

Chicken – tikka powder or paprika

Ground rice – cinnamon

Then just the usual salt and pepper.

damn cinnamon on fish? Is it good?!

Just been a nagging thought on my mind, idk how, and it could just be simple mindedness, i can be eating 5500 cals a day and staying at 205 consistently, my job isn’t physical at all, I sit in a dump truck all day, the only form of activity I get is basic walking around in the am and periodically thru the day, and then training. I know there’s a level of overeating that must accrue to actually put on good amounts of tissue and I don’t prescribe to the idea of lean bulking since that seems like one could be limiting growth potential, and I know many honest bodybuilders will say you gotta get a little fluffy to get big, but hell, to get to 280 or higher, can’t imagine eating 10k calories a day. I was eating 3700 a day and sat at bout 195, then added more food, and I’m not very bloated at all thru the day since damn near all my food is clean besides post training cereal. Idk, at a loss for where to go in the sense, add another 200 cal, but then again I can’t imagine my bmr being 5500 a day with so little activity.

If the amount of calories you’re eating is keeping body composition in an acceptable place, you’re still progressing with your training and you have no digestive issues, then I wouldn’t worry. Only increase calories when you hit a sticking point though, don’t just add more food for the sake of it.

clare, just curious about this, what would you say is the reason that some people need sooo many calories even with just a more “normal” amount of muscle mass AND while not being very active, to just maintain their weight?! I don’t get it… Hope you clear this out a bit!

Those ranges can go up
To 5-700 in people with major liver damage.

It’s common to see people with numbers up to 70
That take regular prescription medication

So you are fine

Thanks for helping Hilly. Glad to know now how to interpret the range.

[Gain]

I don’t see anything for concern.

1. No issue.
2. No need for caber.
3. Adex probably could be lowered to 0.5mg.

Thanks DrDean. Not taking caber anymore and taking 0,5 adex 3x/ week, which cuts my previous dosage of adex in half.
However, a bit confused/ concerned about the liver values.

GOT (AST) 46 U/L (range: <40)
GPT (ALT) 44 U/L (range: <41)

As we can see, they’re both “out of range” on a scale which is fairly small already, which was worrying me a bit to continue the cycle.
However, I don’t know much about these two things. How high of a value would you say can still be considered “ok”? Would it be fine to continue the 6 6+ month cycle and possibly up my dosages based on the blood work above?

Thanks in advance for some explanation and helping me out!

hey buddy, how many shots do you do your test over? i would personally do shots everyother day with an insulin pin to keep levels more consistent.

Hi Ryan. Yes, I do shots 3 times a week so lets say eod indeed.

Estro binding at the nipple can be an issue even at moderate Estro levels , so tamox is going to fix I would imagine

Jordan, to prevent exactly this I’m taking 10mg tamoxifen ed. Is this enough? Or should I take a full 20mg?

Steroids lower fertility – This is just fact and the reason test is used as a contraceptive In some parts of the world.

However for most it doesn’t not mean 0 sperm count just reduced sperm count and thus is lowering your chances some what but not removing them.

How much it effects every one is not only person dependant but situation dependant – if your running 400mg test or 1g test and 500mg tren for example – the second is likely going to effect fertility more.

There are things you can take such as HCG/HMG which will increase sperm count both on and off cycle. I have done so on cycle but was just below average sperm count and so far this year my partner has not fallen pregnant. So now I am running the same fertility stuff but totally off in the hope my sperm count will be higher. I will be testing this in around a weeks time.

Hope this helps

Hilly, would you say that fertility is higher when on TRT (TRT is a must) compared to when on a (moderate) cycle? Thinking logically I would think that fertility would be around the same and it doesn’t matter, since we’re still on testosterone and not producing it by our self.

for me 4-6 weeks seem perfect to get bloods back in check

Wotti, how do you go about this if you were on long esters during your blast? So let’s say you were on 500mg test e/ week. You then take nothing for 2-3 waiting for levels to drop down, and then start the 4-6 weeks of cruising? OR: you just go straight to a cruise dose for 4-6 weeks? With the latter, I can imagine levels to be still very high at the end of the cruise period?

[Gain]

@DrDeanStMart , what do you think, please?

– liver values still acceptable?
– guess I can stop the caber all together since prolactin is in the ground?
– Lower arimidex or not to increase estrogen a bit or continue adex 1mg three times a week?

[Gain]

I see nothing out of the ordinary for some one on cycle using these drugs and nothing that would worry myself

Thanks. So G2G to continue the cycle and potentially up dosages slightly again when bloods stay like this?

Yeh man, experiencing exactly the same… takes a few days beforing having a higher ejaculation volume again. never took HCG though.
