Starting a cycle after PCT

[Superload]

Hey everyone I was wondering if a second cycle can be started after completing a PCT or should one wait extra time after before starting another cycle ?

You need to wait. Time off cycle needs to be the time on. Some even say include the weeks of pct which is what I do. Doing cycles back to back will destroy your body

So how long should one wait before trying another cycle after going through the pct protocol?

 

[Apsmith4992]

How long was your cycle and pct

It was 4 weeks on and then followed with 4 weeks off with Nova, SuP3r PCT and the compounds were

I would wait 8 weeks. Looks like you did things right with a quality pct. It's a pain waiting I know but your body will thank you

The only guaranteed way to know when it's ok is to do bloodwork. You 100% need to wait at least 4 weeks after pct tho to allow your hormones to stabilize as the pct period sees them swing down then up (usually beyond normal) then post pct come back down slightly as they normalize. Run bloods at 4-8 weeks post pct and make the assessment based on that.

If you're too cheap/lazy to do that (which is awfully common) the standard is time on + pct = time off (ie for an 8 wk cycle and 4wk pct you'd take 12 weeks off after the pct before you'd be "ready")

I have a lot of experience. Ive done ten over the counter cycles for ten years. Thats an average of one cycle a year until i started trt. I did from age 23 to 33.

Like everyone said esp with these orals, its best do the rule of thumb time on+plus= time off.

I dont do this anymore as im on trt and feel much better and maintain gains better.

I would recommend getting bloodwork done. Usually after a cycle it decreases hdl cholesterol, liver enzymes, and good to know where your labs are
