Second cycle, im 28 400mg test cyp pin tues and fri 10 weeks, 40/40/20/20 nova pct got Arimidex on the way . Also taken omega3’s, qunol, milk thistle, daily multi. im an idiot an thought arimistaine would be a good ai so still waiting for arimidex,my nips have always been a little puffy, atm i have no itch or tenderness, tell me what you think. but looking to add weight. Currently 148.4 wondering if 400 is too much, did first 2 pens, tomorrow is pen 3, would switching to 150mg x2 a week maybe be better? Wanna gain 10-15pounds still stay lean, don’t wanna get too bulked and bloated. I work at ups, burn about 3.2k avg calories a day tossing boxes up to 145 lbs around, 20 miles walked per day in 120 degree weather. Then also do home workouts, but going to get gym membership this week and get back to lifting again, even tho adding a weight vest at work may be enough, few guys up there are massive workin with weighted vests on, i rann a cycle of test e 300 when I was 25. Got testosterone lvls tested and it was med low, but not low enough for trt, I’d like to get it up and gain some weight , need to build pecs up, I’m pigeon chested so that doesn’t help. An I have good insurance so thinking of telling dr and hoping he takes it well and try getting tested maybe bi weekly? Otherwise I’ll order my own. Please be easy on me, would love advice/inputv. Considering dropping to 300mg a week so 150x2, tthoughts? also didnt order any hcg, considering looking into that, or what do you guys think? see if doc will perscribe or order?anyways would appreciate some good feedback, thanks!

Honestly at your weight I think one CC (250 or 300 depending how your gear is dosed)split 2xs a week in caloric surplus will serve you right only to answer your question.

Ayeee thanks, I appreciate the input, I’m doing 150x2, so 300. I could drop to 250, I’m eating 3.5k-4.5k calories a day

Yes I'd definitely drop to 250mgs and with your stated cals that's sufficient for growth..

Damn so think I should drop it more? Started first week 200x2, this week I’ve done 150x1 gonna do 150 tomorrow. Or you think I do 100? Then stick to 125x2 the rest the way?

Ok, an my ai ended up being bunk, have another one on the way but no way to track when it’s going to get here, is there any alternative you’d suggest? I have arimistaine, I got some **** called novedex xt aswell but pretty sure that’s crap. Any suggestion? Fee like my estrogen may be a bit high atm, an ok I’ll crop to 250

Since I already did 150 this week once tomorrow just do 100mg then go to 125x2? Or pin another 150 tomorrow then start 125x2?

Whoa,ok since you don't have an ai I'd definitely drop to mybe 100mgs weekly and 100mgs arimistane daily and try and get blood work (if possible) to see where your estrogen sits. But with an ai on board I'd definitely stick with 250mgs me I don't need an ai at 250mgs.
^^^All this is just what I'd do in your situation

Right, an yeah it helps appreciate all the info. An yeah I don’t have one on hand atm. When I ran first cycle years ago did test e 300 for 8 weeks with no ai an was fine, but yeah I know it’s not smart to do. An I’m going to get blood work done Monday. If I were to drop to 100mg, wouldn’t I just be shitting down my natural test an not really see much benefit? From what I’ve read people say it’s a waste, but I’m not too sure.

I meant dropping to 100mgs vs stopping your cycle until your ai arrives..
You could try some board sponsors and have what you need in a timely manner..

Yeah itd be wonderful if I could get contact info for someone who could make that happen, I have the money. My ai shopped the 4th with no tracking number, so could be here today, tomorrow, or be weeks. Where I got it said due to COVID may take up to 30 days for outside us, but I’m inside us, said usually 3-7 business days. So I’m not sure, may not ever arrive, but how do I contact board sponser? I’d rather have double the amount than non at all

Sat 9/11/20 armidex came in, took .5 immediately, hoping to feel better soon. Gonna wait to take next .5 dose on Tuesday pin day, then will take it every pin day I’m thinking.

9/14/20 9pm started feeling tingly nips and bloated wrist, took .25mg armidex, maybe e2d is the play.

9/15 5th pin - 150mg woke up itchy scalp could be due to lower estrogen, but I’ve kinda always had bad scalp,but best I’ve felt ina week though, libido great, starting to feel a bit stronger, Feel like I’m recovering a bit faster, excited for work an workout have .25mg armidex on hand.

Ha! I know that feel and understand completely.

You do start to feel unworthy, questioning whether you are good for anything at all, dont you? 😁

Other people who never used aas have this image that if you take test you turn into this alpha super male with insane libido but often times its not the case at all. Happens to me, 200mg test, 500mg test... estrogen shoots up and i get depressed. Weird, eh?

Hence i keep test dose low and add other androgens.



As far as itchy scalp goes, here is my view. Ising ai results in less esteogen but also more dht, and more androgen dominant environment.

Ketoconazole shampoo is your friend.
