just your opinions on a 500mg test/week for these periods of time:

4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, 10 weeks

is 4 weeks far too short? 10 weeks will give most benefits. But the main reason i am asking is because i dont want to have testes lagging for 4 months after the cycle as i dont have access to HCG.

Also is it wise towards the end of a cycle to lower the Test E to say 250mg/week for a week or two so theres no sudden 'jump' in natural test levels?

You obviously need to do more research. You can do 4-6 weeks if you use a short ester. A long ester would be more appropriate for 8-10 weeks. You need to get some HCG.

If you are running Test E, there is no need to taper. It will taper off slowly over a 2-3 week period of time. Not sure why you would want to avoid a jump in natural production. That's exactly what you want.

Do some more research. Read the stickies, read the steroid profiles.

Depending on how you react to gear, you may not experience much if any shrinkage in your nuts. I'm not gonna start a HCG 'on/during/after or at all necessary' debate but personally, try to get some HCG at hand. Four weeks isn't really long enough to run enanthate or cypionate as it won't have time to really kick in and cause its full desired effect, propionate is a shorter ester(basically kicks in faster) if you want a shorter cycle but means more frequent pinning. Go 500mg/pw for 10-12 weeks of enanthate/cypionate, that'll do. Throw in some pinkys or prop to kick start it if you want more immediate effect within the first 2-4 weeks.

Yep, solid advice here.

4-6 weeks is a huge waste of time since it takes test around 4 weeks before it really kicks in.

Unless your using test prop you could run it for 6 weeks since it has a fast acting ester. But for Test e and Test cyp you should run it for 8 weeks or longer.
