10 Days in: Sides Update
Dosing:
6 days were done @ 30mg Epi-Strong and 450mg Stano-Drol
4 days since are @ 45mg Epi-Strong and 600mg Stano-Drol
Fish Oil has been @ 10g / daily (aside from 6g Day 1 and 8g Day 2)
I have noticed no real sides thus far. Yesterday my right palm was pretty dried out, but I attribute that to the heavy shrugs the night before and my gloves getting a bit old.
Aggression:
Haven't noticed any real difference in aggression. My nature is laid back and loving, but I do get angry at the gym and on the road due to stupidity. I haven't seen anything worth noticing regarding an increase or change thus far. Stupid people/things still irritate me, but not any more than normal.
Libido:
Libido has been interesting. After the first 2 or 3 days it was up quite a bit, but it has since declined. There are too many external factors that can play a role in this, though, to make any real conclusions. I'm single, but kind of talking to a girl right now, though it's in the early stages and it's "long" distance. I don't do random hookups, either, so there's nothing to report there. The last few days the "drive" (if you will) hasn't been that strong, but I think that has to do more with the external factors I mentioned. Everything is still working well down there, mornings are the same as always and haven't noticed any type of shrinkage in the boys.
Gyno:
I've never played in the hormonal game before, so I'm very cautious (did a ton of research before agreeing to let myself run these compounds). I've been checking my chest pretty thoroughly and even though I'm not running anything that should cause estrogen jumps that could lead to gyno, i still check. Nothing to report - everything is good. Obviously not running an AI or anything, either.
Hair Loss:
Before I started, I noticed a lot more hair coming out when I'd wash it (it was also longer at the time). I've been feeling like it's getting a bit thinner on me and receding, but it's not bad by any means (but like I said, I'm cautious). I haven't noticed any change since starting, but I still notice more hair in my hands than there used to be when I'd wash a year ago (could just be age). Regardless, I've done some research and will be picking up some Nizoral shampoo to hopefully help combat this and keep things from going any worse on me.
Positives:
Things are good so far. Nothing really noticeable this early with the low dosing in Week 1. Muscles are feeling hard and legs are looking really good, which I attribute mostly to the ton of cardio I've added in (going from none at all on my bulk to 3 hours a week hard). No acne, nothing (also have been doing minimal tanning preventatively).
