Unanswered Should I lower my AI or is my test bunk?

So I’d been using pharma test 200mg for my cycle and had to switch to some older ugl test cyp 250mg which I thought was fine but it didn’t have much “kick” to it... my mood hasn’t been very stable, libido is lower, erections are softer, joints are KILLING ME. Feels like 100mg per ml at the most. I kept my adex dose and Deca 200mg dose the same, nothing changed but the test. I got some new gear from a different ugl and some more pharma test sent my way so I’m good now but you think this test was just trash or what? Maybe my body is getting used to the adex and my dose is too much now? I had that issue when I got real lean. I tested the stuff I’m using now and testosterone is present but I don’t know how much. It’s killing me dude, I feel like hell. Even with the Deca my joints are grinding and swelling up.
 
Get labs done. Test, free test, e2 AND prolactin, just to be sure. Prolactin is a mfer and will kill your erections just like high e2 will.

i blew too many sex opportunities because i didnt do a thorough bloodwork.
granted, i had a limp noodle even before steroids...
 
Can’t get Labs right now unfortunately. It’ll be a while. Just thinking of doing my regular 200mg pharma on Monday and seeing how I feel but til then something just isn’t right. Thinking about taking a 50mg shot of prop and seeing what happens.

Any particular reason why?
 
Just noticed about 4 days or so ago that my shoulders, wrists and knees were killing me. Wasn’t interested in sex and my old lady REALLY put on and got into some rough, hot **** the other night but I just didn’t feel like it, gave it a shot though and just couldn’t stay hard. It’s like my dick was numb the whole time.
Not holding any water and my circulation to my wrists is suffering from it because it makes my carpel tunnel act up BAD. Now even my elbows are dry and hurting, plus I’m just tired as hell. I’ve had low E before and ED from it but this is awful. If it is low E, I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck. Emotionally I just feel numb on top of it.

Interesting. If you are emotionally numb then e2 might be low. And if you have no energy etc. I remember falling asleep on public transport when i crashed my e2.
I had ed again today (couldnt get it up) but i am crazy emotional, so i am suspecting high e2.

Since you can't get bloodwork done right now, you could try popping a couple DHEA tabs for a day or two, and see if you notice any difference. It's what I use on the very rare occasion that I have low E.

I sweat SUPER BAD at night when my E2 is higher than usual. Soak the whole bed. Even like sex, if my girl is riding me when I get up there’s just an imprint of where I was in sweat lol it’s sooooo bad. Then I get emotional fast and kind of moody and irrational. Only low E symptoms I’ve ever had before were soft or no erections, numb emotionally, kind of irritated. Now it’s like all these things I hear about low E are hitting me all at once, it sucks. My girl woke me up at like 3am for sex which was cool, everything worked but I could tell I was gonna lose wood so I moved things along. Woke up again at 9 for sex lol all was well but I just wasn’t as hard as usual, couldn’t get off or anything, just didn’t work out right. She got off though so she’s good lmao.

How does it effect low E? Not to sound like a dick, I’m just not knowledgeable on DHEA.

By how much though, would I just be better off with some prop?

It depends upon how your body reacts. It's up to you man. Pick the one you want to try. I use DHEA, but if you want to try prop, try that.
 
LABS as everyone stated. 200mg solo brings me over 1000.
Bunk and your total rest will show it if you switched over to ugl more than 2 weeks ago. Lower AI though. I don’t use it until nips itch or bloat is crazy out of control.
 
Ahhhhh well joints are hurting less but I’m still less interested in sex and erections aren’t as hard as they usually are. Went at it with the wife and I kept just going soft right before I could get off which kills me. Did 200mg pharma cyp and 100mg Deca this morning, my joints don’t feel as painful as before so I’m guessing my estrogen isn’t as low as it was but I just keep thinking it could be the Deca but I just don’t know. At such a low dose I don’t see it giving me Deca dick and my prolactin is fine, unless it’s the DHN but I feel like it makes more sense to say it’s estrogen.
