Post cycle recovery

[AlexPowell]

Should clear out some of the "broscience" on this board...
Effects of Androgenic-Anabolic Steroids in Athletes - Springer

In most review of the literature, complete restoration of hpta function was achieved 6 to 12 months after stopping usage. Use of clomiphene restored hpta function even faster

What "bro science" are you specifying? Regarding pct and Clomid? Because this article mentions recovery in literally one single sentence. Says nothing about Clomid. Your point is vague. If you're implying that the "bro science" is that someone doesn't need Clomid, or any other SERM for that matter, then I don't think this article is going to clear that out. If someone believes recovery can be achieved naturally faster than with Clomid, they're just stupid, and this article can't fix it.

People that think a 12 week cycle is any better for you than long term use

Define long-term.

I would say anything over 20-24 weeks is long-term. And it totally depends on dosage and amount of different compounds used that determines the effects on the body. Not only the endocrine system, but other organ function as well. Sure recovery may be possible, or even as easy, with proper pct and all, but that's only taking into consideration natural test/hormone production. Doesn't say much for the prolonged stress on the heart, liver, kidneys, etc.
