Depending on age, on trt or off, would dictate pct needs imo.
Ex: someones 23 and natural. I would use a mild otc pct were I to run either of the dheas at a high dose, alone or in combo with stano and or kronos.
Something like Arimahex plus AET-50 stacked with a test booster orally, such as m-test or quality one of choice.
As to apex recomp choice hormonal: Kronos if solo. Kronos + stano + DHEA or Hyperion
Natty: Ursa major + epichaos 100 (flip a coin for solo)
