    "Issues" during PCT

    I am on day 12 of PCT following a mild test - Deca cycle.

    clomid 100/100/75/50 aromasin 25/25/12.5/12.5
    No blood tests.
    I am strong as an ox - I have not lost any strength yet from the cycle. The issue I am having is low libido. Low drive and erection problems the last couple of days not cured by Cia from CEM (1 ml dose).
    Oddly, I wake up at 4-5 a.m. every morning with a raging erection, but, after 10 mins of vigorous "activity" with my girlfriend this morning, even THAT just slowly went away.
    This is very frustrating for her and me, and she does not know that I just did a cycle or that I am in PCT, so all of a sudden this loss of libido is coming along with no explanation.
    IS THERE an explanation? This is my second cycle, and during PCT from my first cycle I was not seeing a "regular" girlfriend, so I do not know if this is normal and temporary.
    No other issues of which I am aware.
    Normal during PCT? If so, how long will this last?

    Lo, there do I see the line
    Of my people back to the beginning..
    Thay do bid me to take my place among them..

    Whew!

    I have a little getaway planned with her in a few weeks, and this issue would absolutely ruin it!

    Well, that is what really worried me. From my first post:

    1 ml is a lot, but the problem remained an hour later. Got started up, but ten to fifteen to twenty minutes in (was not watching the clock) it just slowly went away.

    What did your cycle look like? How long after your last pin did you wait to start PCT?

    It sounds like deca dick to me, the test cleared but some deca still remains possibly?

    Did you have any issue on cycle? Did you use anything for prolactin? Caber or prami?

    Maybe look into getting one of those.

    Test 600, Deca 300 weekly, stopped Deca 4.5 weeks before stopping test, and ramped the test down slowly. Two weeks from last test pin to start PCT.

    Used HCG at beginning of cycle, but not end. I had purchased enough for the cycle at 250 x 2 weekly, but had to double it to keep the balls large, and then ran out a little over halfway through the cycle. Doh! Of course, balls promptly shrank and remain so.

    No issues on cycle, other than growing 22 pounds and having the libido of a teenager (something my girlfriend actually said a few weeks ago!). I used prami for prolactin even though some stated it was not needed on only 300 weekly of Deca. I continued Prami for 5 or 6 weeks after stopping Deca.

    Like I said, mild cycle. Deca should have cleared, although the way my strength is staying up makes me wonder, but the normal advice is to wait to more weeks while continuing test, and I waited more than a month.

    Assuming I would need blood tests to determine this, right? No other issues, like tingly nips and such that would normally occur during high estro . . .

    Aromasin is a suicidal A/I so the possiblity of rebound is none.

    It "sounds" like you did everything correct. That being said, everyone is different and it just might take you a little longer. How old are you? The older you are the longer it might take to recover.

    This could be part of the issue. You're not old, just mature.

    You did everything right man. Scar tissue or blood flow issues can slow down the removal of gear from depots and extend its half life, I'd say extend the clomid and use some cialis or something to keep the GF happy

    any chance it's psychological? Have you been worried about this happening? I'm guessing that all the discussion of ED during pct has some guys so freaked about it that they create problems that don't exist. Not saying this happens to everyone, but the mind can really fuck you.

    I've heard to test it while you're alone, and not worried about performance. watch some porn, and see if you have issues then.

    Ok, so I was alone and everything worked ok. Don't tell anybody.

    Then she decided about 12 hours later to perform oral, and everything worked ok.



    Not sure what the . . .

    Anyway blood test results should be here tomorrow (or up until 72 hours).

    A good percentage of Ed is psychological. Worrying about not getting it up can cause it to not go up.

    These are your numbers after 2 weeks? If so get labs done again in another 4-6 weeks.

    You're recovering still, obviously you need more time.
