Test boosters shut me down?

I am 19 years old and have gone through 2 cycles of test boosters, straying away from pro-hormones. I am naively starting to realize I am far too young for the test boosters as well. I figured they were natural and couldn't have any side effects. I took one months' worth of p6 Extreme back in December with no side effects, decent gains and a fair increase in libido. Last month I took 3 weeks worth of Activate Xtreme. I went off it because I my sex drive completely died. I still have no sex drive and I am starting to get worried. I was informed to start taking doses of Maca and ICARRIN, which should cure dilema. So far i have had no luck at all and I am starting to get worried. Have these nat boosters shut down my production. If so, how can I jump start my production. I really want my levels to be balanced again as soon as possible, without f**king with my harming my endrocrime system. It kills me not being able to get it up with beautiful naked women in my bed. I am currently only taking GUNPowder by PPN as a pre-workout. Please any feedback will be much apreciated. Thanks

activate is completely non hormonal and should not in anyway impact hpta. it also includes icarrin, one of the products you are now taking.
what activate does (its main ingredient anyway, nettle root extract) is stop free test from binding to SGBH globulins which happens in older men. not in young guys such as yourself. it does not actually create an increase in free test, just how your body uses it.

i cant tell you what the problem is but i really do not see how the activate would have shut you down like this... any chance its become a mental issue?

Activate X has Icariin in it...

This sounds like a mental issue more than anything.

You sure its not all in ur head? Sometimes thinking to hard about negatives can make you believe you have the bad side effects.

Why hasn't anyone explained the obvious yet? By its very definition, a "test booster" can not and will not shut you down, me down, or anyone for that matter. A "test booster" increases test production or modifies existing test levels in order to give you a better "form" of testosterone. Test boosters work WITH your system, not against it. Whether it is through a mechanism to increase overall test production, unbind test to form free test, or to reduce estrogen conversion leading to higher overall test levels, there is no substitution going on here - only augmentation.

On the flip side, you have things like PH and the like that are substances which mimic or convert to testosterone in one form or another. When the body is receiving the hormone from an outside source, then it will shutdown natural production in order to maintain stasis. Prohormones, prosteroids, and AAS will cause shutdown in some way and and to varying degrees. It is by their nature that they do this.

It's a huge misconception that everything out there causes shutdown. It's another one that a lack of sex drive is a great indicator of being shutdown. How do you know what your current test levels are? Bloodwork. That's it. That's the only way. If someone says "I feel like I have high test levels", they could very well be talking out their anus. If you're in doubt, see a doc and go through the testing procedures to know for sure.

If it's lack of sex drive that you're concerned about, or seemingly in your case, an inability to salute when it comes time to raise the booty flag, it could be a great number of other factors. 3 weeks after Activate Xtreme and it will be completely out of your system. I'd say this could be a mental issue, a dietary issue, or even a chemical imbalance of some sort. Lay off the stims or other vaso-constrictors. Get your head in the game. Eat plenty of almonds and nuts that contain magnesium and zinc.

On rare occasions, I have seen some guys report that test boosters lowered their libido (note that this IS different than "shutdown" of natty test production). It's not out the realm of possibility, for whatever reason it may occur.

At any rate, simply discontinue use of the product. Your libido will return to normal shortly.

And, as off the wall as this may sound, look at porn. Numerous studies exist showing heightened sexual arousal and increased testosterone production when men are looking at porn...as if this no-brainer actually had to be "clinically studied." :eek:mfg::laughing:

If this is true that explains the shutdown.

P6 Black (PCT)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my first cycle and I'm looking for the best pct I can possible find for the pro hormone I will be taking. The pro hormone I'm taking is P6 Black Extreme( NOT RED), which is the watered down version that cellucor has on there website. P6 Black, was banned due to its compounds,but now it's being sold at Max Muscle(where I got it). Anyways the ingriedients of P6 black are as follows :
Androsta - 1, 4-diene-3,17-dione 40 mg
4-Hydroxy Androstenedione 20mg
19 Norandrosta-4,9 Diene-3,17-dione 18mg

It wouldn't hurt to run a pct like the testosterone recovery stack if you are worried, but most likely in your head, take some tcf 1 and either testo pro or phyto test, you will be the talk of your dorm room.

I know of a product called "Magnum" from some certain company that might be of assistance to performance issues. Can't say the company quite yet, but... 1st line of siggy.

The body needs a certain amount of fats and carbs to be healthy. If your diet is way off, it can affect your hormones. If you don't get enough rest it can affect your hormones. Maybe you're overstressed. I've had various effects from the test boosters I've tried, from nothing, as well as both increased or decreased libido. But I'm a guy in my 40s. I wouldn't recommend any to a 19 year old.
