Thoughts on donating blood while on cycle

[DubbyGunz]

So I am on trt,halodrol, and NPP. Could I donate blood? If they found a reason not to use the blood due to the fact I am on cycle will they just discard the blood? I dont want it to hurt my testosterone perscription. The place I want to donate isnt where I go to the doctor, it is a blood drive at a college. Also, would donating affect my cycle? Such as gains/strength.
So has anyone ever donated on cycle? If so what happen

You will be g2g donating blood on cycle. It will help you by lowering your RBC and help someone else out with blood they may need. And yes, I have donated blood will on cycle and everything was fine. Definetly lowered my blood pressure.

 

[DubbyGunz]

Thanks for the info bro. Did it drop strength or hurt gains?

I've been donating for about three years now both while trt cruising and blasting. I've also donated while on deca and tne blend with no problems. It helps lower my hemocrit levels and I actually feel better and more energenic afterwards.

 

[DubbyGunz]

Reps for you both! I almost had myself talked out of it. I want to awsner the prequestions honest as possible. But dont want to be rejected from donating.

As for answering the prequestions "honestly." You may have to lie alittle. My blood bank accepts my trt but if I tell them I'm taking other injectables I'll get denied. Also, make sure you drink LOTS of water a couple hours before so you're hydrated and don't clot while donating blood. They'll prolly poke your finger for blood before hand and test your hemocrit and if it's too high, they'll deny you from donating.

Other than that, the only thing sucks is getting jabbed with a 16 gauge needle the first couple times.

 

[DubbyGunz]

would there be a problem with me leaving out that i take anything, including trt? Im not sure if they will accept trt

 

[Bigjay73]

Last time I checked, test wasn't on the no go list.

 

[Bigjay73]

Looks like the only problem you would have is if you used slin from the UK.

No slin from the UK. Thanks a ton you have help me decide on donating tomorrow. U get reps. I have a blood test for trt end of November so I was thinking it would be a good idea.

 

[Jupiterak]

it was a hassle for getting approval on trt from my blood bank. But now I'm in the system they don't care now.

 

[DubbyGunz]

Do they ask if u r on trt?

 

[NoviceAAS]

Dont tell them you are on anything !!! They will reject you !! Just answer no to all the questions pertaining to drugs and needles . Your blood will be fine even with NPP and test in it . Your RBC is probably pretty high from the NPP so donating blood will help you a lot .

Bingo^^^^

 

[Presser]

So they don't test the blood after you donate? What about someone on cycle running tren or deca or mast, etc? Would they find them? Would a person be flagged fir further donations?

Well first of all lets not forget that donating blood is actually healthy for us, so even if they didnt use it there is a bennefit to us. Second I have donated blood while on test/nandro and they want me back for more ! They keep calling ! When you go in and they see big veins and that you are strong, plus your blood will be rich in iron they'll probably even ask you to donate double red cells. You will not get in trouble dont worry ! You'll be one of their best customers !

So you're sayin' I can donate to pay for my next cycle???

Some plasma banks pay up to $35 per pint. In the United States, federal regulations state that an individual may donate two times in a seven day period, with a minimum of two days in between donations.

don't give you're steroid filled blood to someone who is expecting healthy clean blood for what could be a potentially dangerous situation for them. If your gonna donate your blood, call them afterwards and tell them you were sick and they should dispose of it. They will still call you back in 60 days.

Those extra steroids are not going to do anything harmful to any donor, even a baby. Blood is in such short demand that there's no reason to be throwing out perfectly good stuff.


I can't donate because of the Accutane I'm on

Steroid filled blood is not sick blood and I dont even think you can overdose on test, so given its only a few pints of his entire body then a little extra test or deca will not hurt anyone. He should not feel in the least bit guilty about donating blood with extra testosterone.

You're donating roughly 1/12 of your blood supply which is only 1/12 of the AAS in you're blood which is dying off as the days go by from the active half lives. Its good blood that will help people in need.

 

[oufinny]

I do it and there is one type that really helps if you blast/cruise; its aphoresis (sp?) donation. You not only give blood but platelets that cancer patients constantly need and are only good for about 24-48 hours if memory serves right. It's a huge needle in your arm and takes about 90 minutes but its quite a good feeling knowing you are helping and it always lowers my BP.

 

[dave 236]

Platelet life span is 5-10 days in circulation. Not sure what you meant but platelets can be stored and routinely are in blood banks. Aphoresis is the removing of the formed elements and replacing the plasma. Thats why it takes a good bit longer. Not trying to start a
Whole big thing all healthy blood donations are needed and appreciated, i just wanted to clarify so potential donors will know. Glad you all give.

Donating blood on gear does two things.
1. Keeps you healthy
2. Saves lives.


Donating is good bro! Your "steroid filled" blood is perfectly fine.

all interesting points...but I have a serious question;

I wonder why the blood donor centers refuse your blood donation if you say you have been using steroids then?

I think if you are using UGL you cannot be 100% certain exactly what you're injecting. So if this a concern for anyone (a 5 year old girl gets your deca, tren or whatever blood) you can donate and have them throw it away afterwards

what if premi babies, a pregnant woman receives anadrol and tren with some winstrol in a life threatening situation? It seems to me there is a specific reason they are picky about donors

It's because they think we're junkies as well and share our needles with other junkies in the gym. They ask a lot of dumb questions like have you done blow in the last 12 months, when did you have your last menstraul cramp, and how old were you when you lost your virginity. You're good to go.

They say that because using steroids involves needles and anyone doing injections not under the supervision of a doctor is denied.

Donated blood MANY times while on cycle, and also during a cruise. The amount of hormone in your blood is so minimal it will not affect anyone.

They have several concerns but the biggies are AIDS, and hepatitis. They DO test the blood afterwards for these. They do not test for steroids, or recreational drugs, because they know the levels would be so low.

If you admit to using needles for something NOT prescribed by your doctor.... that is the flag. They then assume you are either a junkie or a steroid user who SHARES needles and therefore high risk of passing along AIDs and hepatitis.

Giving blood drops your RBC, hemocrit and hemoglobin which are more then likely elevated while on. On average you save three lives. I'm sure the person who was in a serious car accident,or suffered a gunshot wound and is in danger of bleeding to death is not going to be concerned if there is some trace amount of testosterone in the blood that will save his or her life.
