So I see here people say longer esters make you more suppressed...Im not sure the reasoning behind this, because I could see your body detecting the androgens and shutting you off, but that's if its in the system period. If Deca is saturated into a cycle and NPP comes in, its the same level of situation, but the NPP clears faster. Where I'm going with this, is if you are still running a test E ester, you need to wait 2 weeks for it to clear anyway. So if you dropped deca a month prior to ending the test and stopped NPP almost 2 weeks prior as well, doesn't everything clear at the same time if you just take everything half life into consideration?
Consider this:
I take 20mg OxyContin today. I enjoy it, so I take it all this week daily. And then I run out next Monday. I don’t notice anything.
Now say I have a years worth at 20mg a day.
Two things happen..
1. Within a month or two,20mg isn’t doing what it did for me at the beginning.
2. I am going to notice when I run out. In fact it’ll be 3-4 weeks before I’m sleeping through the night and don’t have cold sweats and chills.
Saturation and shutdown.
Saturation: I’ll need more to produce the same effects I initially achieved.
Shutdown: the longer I’m giving my body something it typically produces on its own, the longer and harder it will be until it’s producing it adequately on its own again.
In fact, it’s proven the longer you are using exogenous substances, the less likely you are to ever regain even close to 100% of function. Here is an absurd made-up unscientific fictitious chart:
4 week cycle with pct: 98% function achieved 2 months post cycle
8 week cycle with pct: 92% function achieved 2 months post cycle
16 week cycle at 35 years old with 6 week pct: 75% function achieved 3 months post cycle.
For me, once I ran a 14 week test cycle with Dbol on the front end and SD on the back end, with hcg and 6 week nolva/clomid pct with 3 day hcg blast. 6 months later I was around 45% natural testosterone levels that I was prior to the cycle. All with lab confirmation. At 37 years old. Never once broke 350 natty test again.
