Post cycle therapy is a tried and true method of helping to solidify your gains by raising natural testosterone levels and lowering estrogen levels once your cycle is over. When you add external hormones to your body, your own natural production becomes suppressed. Your body attempts to compensate your endocrine system by stabilizing the other hormones, which results in an increase in estrogen. Once you quit supplying your body with external hormones, your natural testosterone will be low and estrogen will be high. Therefore, anti-estrogens are taken to halt the manufacture of estrogen in the body. This will result in higher testosterone levels, hence making it easier to keep your gains. Post cycle therapy should begin the next day after the prohormones have stopped being taken. Common post cycle therapy drugs are listed below with dosages:


Clomid
Clomid is a prescription fertility drug, but is highly available and highly effective at blocking estrogen and increasing LH output.
Day 1 – 300mg
Day 2-11 100mg
Day 11-21 50mg
OR
150mg daily for 2 weeks
100mg daily for 2 weeks

Nolvadex
Nolvadex is also a prescription, which is highly available and blocks estrogen at the receptor.
Week 1-2 – 40mg daily
Week 2-4 – 20mg daily


There are other prescription anti-estrogens available, but these two will be fine unless side effects arise, so we won’t discuss the other options in this FAQ.

But, it is very important to use an anti-estrogen for post cycle. I would never recommend not using one.

Premeir, dont' bother man. This is obviously a joke.

What about HCG? I didn't think clomid was all that, nolva just sufficing

HCG is to avoid atrophy, to aid later recovery by having your factory fully staffed. It is not itself a recovery drug for post cycle.

Ya, I think this and the other post from the 14yr old that was going to do a 1AD cycle that said he didn't care what we said are both people having fun with us. It could very well be one of our regulars. They know just what sets us off. They are doing a good job at it.

Ever hear the one about the woman at the elmo factory that was sewing on two marbles and red fur on the dolls crotch?

She was told to give them two test-tickles.

So you'd run nolva and HCG during the cycle or after? Surely avoiding atrophy is a part of PCT as with nolva etc?

Don't run HCG post cycle, it's suppressive.

Pussy, Cock & Tits.

The whole idea is to avoid it at all. This means, during the cycle, because post cycle is when you are supposed to get running on your own two nuts again.
