    Shrunken testes with testosterone products?

    I am new to the forums, and have been needing some help for some testosterone products, and figured this was the right place to go! I was thinking about trying 1-Test, but since your body would be getting its testosterone from 1-test, it will start to shrink your testes because it doesnt need the testosterone from your testes.. Is this true? And could you tell me why/why not this woudl be true? and if so, how much would they shrink?

    With a standard 4-6 week cycle you should be good to go, it takes longer to really have testicular atrophy set in.

    I'm not terribly familiar with everyones favorite post cycle item, but a post cycle should be completed. I would say generically speaking if you run 6 weeks, you should stay off for 6 weeks.

    dg806 and others can give you more specifics.

    Yeah, the general rule of thumb is to cycle off for the length of the on cycle. So 4 weeks on, would mean 4 weeks off. Probably the best OTC anti-estrogen currently available is Ergopharm's 6-OXO. For a 4 week cycle, use at least 300 mg of 6-OXO per day for 3 weeks.

    You get an exogenous supply of test from any PH. The higher the dose you take and the longer you are on it, the quicker the natural test will shut down. That is why it is important to take something like 6-oxo or clomid/nolvadex, after cycle, to get your natural production back up as soon as possible.

    No, estrogen goes up in response to elevated testosterone levels. Your testosterone production is going to go down period, but it will go down faster and "harder" as it were the longer you are on and the harder you are on.

    Testicular atrophy would not be a concern unless you are "stupid" with your cycling, I would say that recovery would simply be compromised if you are a little careless, stick to what works IMO.

    Anavar, a VERY mild drug used in women and children shuts you down so you can rest assured anything else will. However like I said, testicular atrophy wont be noticeable without pretty hard use in MOST people, I can say that from experience.



    Also, 15mg is NOTHING in terms of dose with anavar, most males will do 40-60mg every day if they can afford it, and again this is mild. So dont push your luck and you will be fine.

    Anything oral goes through the liver-period.
