Are you still progressing?

If so wait before jumping to supplements

Unless cravings/energy are become a big difficulty

If you're progressing, no need to change anything yet. Once you stop, you could try a refeed since your low carb. That alone will do wonders.

What's a refeed

As said previously, ride the progress and use supplements as a way to help once you plateau (not meaning to disregard diet and training analysis as well).
Creatine is always a great addition. TMG and forskolin also make great recomp supplements. In your circumstance you could probably benefit from HICA as well with its nitrogen retention properties.

What's a refeed

A planned carb loading day if you will. It helps leptin levels which can lower when you diet for an extended period of time. Essentially, you will consume the same amount of protein or less depending on how much you consume on a normal day. I would go with .8g/lb for a refeed, have minimal fats, and the rest of your calories come from carbs. You should also eat at around maintenance calories that day. The leaner you are, the more you will benefit from a refeed.

You could always try a natural anabolic product to help lose fat while maintaining muscle. or either cut with a product like norcodrene and then try to build muscle with a natural anabolic. i would recommend maybe checking this page out at Strong Supplement Shop if you're interested in a product

this. refeeds will help keep you from stalling. i would also recommend carb cycling. there's tons of articles out there that explain how to set up a carb cycling diet. carb cycling is essentially a programmed way of refeeding so you can psychologically power through those low carb days, and it also keeps your metabolism moving. sounds like you've made some great progress though man. keep it up!
