LGD Side Effects

My current cycle is 22mg of lgd with 4 pumps of dermacrine. I’ll be adding 6mg of yk11 soon.

Can people who’ve used lgd share some of the side effects they experienced?

I’m finishing up week four of an lgd run. This week is when I finally started to make some gains I’m up 5 pounds and even look slightly leaner. My strength and muscle endurance are up. My muscles are looking pretty darn full. So I’m happy with all this.

Unfortunately I’m also getting some side effects. My skin is oily and I’m breaking out with acne. Also, I’m shedding much more hair than usual. My sleep is pretty disruptive and low quality, but this doesn’t effect my energy throughout the next day.

If I cut the dose back to 11mg a day, should expect to shed less hair and get less acne? I plan on adding 6mg a day of yk11 next week. So that would hopefully make up for the reduced lgd dose and maybe yk11 won’t cause those same side effects for me. If I remember correctly, yk11 is related to DHT. That could be an issue.
 
I just finished 10mg LGD / 330mg 4 andro everyday for 8 weeks. Around weeks 7-8 I was getting slight headaches (not painful, but I normally don't get headaches). 2 days into PCT and I got flu like symptoms (runny nose, cough, etc) but they mostly went away after I took 2 days off the gym.

Around weeks 6-8 I blew the **** up and was pushing crazy numbers compared to what I used to though. I'm 1 week into PCT now and hoping that I keep the gains. 10/10 would run again even with the sides I mentioned.
 
I get the mild headache here and there. It’s not too bad though. I hear lgd takes a little bit until you start to experience its power, so I’m not surprised week 6-8 were good to you. That’s why I’m gonna run it a little longer. Did you gain some weight from the lgd cycle?
 
ride it out. Get some nioxin shampoo for the hair loss. If it’s gonna go on LGD, then it’s gonna go when you step up to something stronger.

Start saving for a hair transplant is all I can tell you. That’s what I did when I realized I was gonna be bald early.

Yeah, I can’t psych myself out. I gotta ride this out. You got a hair transplant? That’s probably insanely expensive. Does the result of it look good? I guess it’s technically your normal hair that’s growing. I’m just gonna except the fact that I’m bald when it happens. All the men in my family bald early and they just live with it.
 
In for info on hair transplant lol. Oh and I absolutley loved my LGD run a few years ago. Crazy strength. I was 180 incline pressing 130s for reps.

Even cheaper idea...do what I did and start shaving your head. You don’t even have to shave it completely, even using a number 1 clipper attachment or half guard makes male pattern balding much less noticeable.

What did all your friends say when you got your transplant and all the sudden had hair?

Curious what company did you go with for transplant? I here hairclub for men is real expensive because after the transplant you keep paying them monthly fees.

I gained like 3-5 pounds but I was going more for a recomp than a bulk. I was surprised how much I could eat and not gain too much weight. I’m 5’7 160ish and was eating 3-4K calories (all clean) everyday. But I also train jiu jitsu so that probably helped keep the weight off. Should also mention I’m also taking mk-677 through somatozine.

Solid advice. I’m ready to do that when the time comes. It does kind of suck that that time will be early in life for me, like around 27 years old I’m guessing, and I’ll no longer have the hair of a Nordic god.

I’m recomping too. I burn a few thousand calories a day at my job. Bulking would require truck loads of food.

LGD made me so hungry (mk-677 prob contributed to that). I was like a black hole devouring anything and everything. How do you like dermacrine? I used 4 andro and thought it was decent; it's just annoying popping pills all day. But I've never tried dermacrine.

I’m liking dermacrine a lot. I have a solid amount of energy throughout the day, my libido has been up, and I just generally feel good.
