Thread: My PCT after 8 months of blasting and cruising

yeah I'm sure the test was out a while ago, unless you were running some crazy dosage which I doubt. It's all good though I'm sipping some whiskey, ate so much turkey I might puke, and about to enjoy some herb before it's time to sleeep.

Nope, was only running 500-750 mg a week prior, w only 250 the last 2 weeks. Hopefully this encourages others to try and recover.

is dropping to 250 a week last 2 weeks something normal or just because you did such a long cycle?

No, it's not normal. I was planning on cruising before my next cycle but then wised up and decided to pct. best decision I've ever made. Bout to start some hgh and run it for a few months the run a cycle alongside the hgh.

honestly guys..what i am gonna do next time is do the tript shots then like 4 weeks after the shot add in clomid for another 4 to 8 weeks..even though my fsh and lh is in the dumps my test is good and i feel good

So, I'm now past 6 weeks since my last shot and have yet to feel any different. Motivation is good, no depression, and strength has remained flat. Libido could be better, but it's not bad and no problems performing.

I just got bloodwork done, and I know it'll be skewed since the serms are still in my system, but I'll get more done in 4-6 weeks too. I'll post my results in a few days.

Have you ever tried PT-141 for the libido support? It's pretty cheap and you will feel like you are truly in love bro!

No, my education has led me to be a supplement skeptic. Very few supplements prove to be of any worth. Do you have any science that supports it's use?

It's not a supplement it's an injectable peptide. It's effectiveness is well documented (albeit anecdotally) and I've used it myself. You pin it sub-q about 4-6 hours before activity and it keeps working for several days (48-72 hrs). It's not a mechanical helper like viagra/cialis. It affects your actual mood- probably the only true scientifically supported aphrodisiac out there (besides melanotan II which pt-141 is derived from). It was originally developed as a nasal spray but was not approved for this purpose so as far as I know only research chems work. It's cheap enough, it's worth giving a try at least. there's nothing better in my book. Let me know if you want help finding it via PM.

Reportedly, it works for women as well.

looking forward to your labs bro..

Alright, I got my test levels back:

Total test: 335 (348-1197)
Free test: 13 (8.7-25.1)
Estradiol: 7.7 (7.6-42.6)
lh: 4.4 (1.7-8.6)
FSH: 2.0 (1.5-12.4)

This doesn't seem real good to me, considering I still have serms in my system. But, I feel fine except the libido not being up to par. Sex is still good and I can perform fine though. I do know that my aromasin from chemoneresearch was g2g considering my extremely low estradiol.

I'll recheck in 4-6 weeks. Any thoughts?

Are you going to continue with 50mg clomid for a few weeks? Seems like that'd be the most logical step followed by another blood test. I mean your stats aren't great, but they're not bad. In range LH/FSH is always a good thing

How old are you? Im in my 30s

Compared to my results we're within the same ball park.

Someone mentioned I should look into this Single dose of triptorelin gets bodybuilder’s hormones going again said its supposed to help, but I havent looked into it yet.

I'm 32. I'm just going to wait it out and see what happens, but will probably continue the serms for another 2 weeks. Especially cause I feel fine with these test levels.

Have you experienced any strength or weight loss since you began PCT? A few lbs of water weight is expected but nothing too drastic i hope?

No, but my strength has remained flat for about 6 weeks. maybe a slight drop, like 5-10 lbs off of my db bench. Weight has remained the same, but I do feel a little fatter.

I'm worried that my lh and fsh are only normal because of the serms. I'm a little worried what will happen when i stop those. what were your numbers again?

Get on IML Ultra Male. At least for the mean time.

Your numbers would be higher if it was an a.m. draw when your body peaks. My lh is half of yours and I range from 288 to 500ng/nl, the higher number was an a.m. draw. Your body just needs more time to seek homeostasis.

ya me to..im hoping by like may 2012 they will be in range and recovered

im starting pct as soon as it gets here, looks somethin like that, i did some research on the effects it will have on my liver, because i had liver failure last summer and i read nolvadex can be hard on ya, so before ya injest a coctail take a moment and see if you can concoct a safe one 4u. good luck........
bones

I've been running nolva For 6 weeks and just had a full work up. All labs were normal.
