I am on my fourth cycle of M1T right now. It is a strong anabolic. Suggested starting dose for a beginner is about 10mg ED taken whenever you want.
It is known as a rather harsh compound and is, imo a very poor choice for a first steroid cycle.
Common side effects include reduced libido (hard shutdown), hair loss, chance of gyno, quite a bit of liver stress due to it being an oral methylated compound, very bad lethargy (want to sleep all day), high blood pressure/nose bleeds, cholesterol issues while on, very strong appetite suppression/overall feeling like crap. You may also have a tougher time for pct. It's effect on joints is usually not good. Typical cycle length for M1T is 3 weeks, which is nowhere near long enough to get a lot of good muscle gains. You need something you can run longer. You may experience many of these side effects or only a few.
On the upside, it gives good strength gains/cns stimulation and quite a bit of bang for your buck in terms of muscle. It is also dirt cheap. I think you would do much better with a 12 week cycle of test enanthate or cypionate dosed at 500mg each week. This is the standard first cycle for a bodybuilder recommended on most bodybuilding message boards (and with good reason).
Alternatively, there are better options available if you want to use orals or prefer to do something that is not yet illegal. Particularly, many people like Phera-Plex or one of its knock offs and have run it as a first cycle. It is not terribly harsh considering that it is methylated. Some people report few side effects from it.
M1T isn't a good choice for a first cycle. You learn quickly on a compound like that though! For many reasons, running testosterone alone is much better.
What are your current stats right now? It is easier to give suggestions if we know what kind of condition you are in now.
