Cholesterol rise during cycle?

Would like to start the cycle already but health comes first so some questions have come up...
Is cholesterol level something to monitor very carefully during mild cycle (anavar+proviron)? I've started taking precycle milk thistle (300mg/ED) and also bought flaxseed oil and vitamins (multi+ extra C and E vitamins for antioxidants) but I've read that some kind of product to lower the cholesterol should also be used during cycle (Policosanol for example) Is the cholesterol really such a concern during anavar cycle? Help appreciated, thanks to everyone for sharing their knowledge! HDL level at the moment 48 mg/dL and LDL 81. Also triclytserids 70 mg/dL
 
Anavar can be very bad for your HDL and cholestrol in general.

Look into Arjuna..run a "title search" here at AM.

THANK YOU! I'm glad I asked first, instead of starting experimenting myself. Should I take a larger dose than marked for regular use during cycle or just take the dose marked on the Arjuna bottle?
 
It is very good for BP and is proported to increase HDL as well as a plethora of other health benefits.

The effects are proported to be dose dependent. I noticed a reduction in BP and RHR with the first couple weeks.

Many variables contributed to mildly a elevated BP and RHR but I noticed immediate relief. It is my new staple, though I continue to use the balance of my policosinol.
 
Polycosinal is what I have been using. Just found a place that carries Arjuna in bulk for a very reasonable price. Have some on order.

I've found the longer I weight train, the less my emphasis is on "getting big" and the more it goes towards staying/getting more healthy. And God knows I abused my insides for a long time.
 
Red yeast rice can help there was a big thing a while ago about it containing a statin. RYR now in the U.S. does not contain any statins:thumbsup:

yes, I've read about RYR too, but the last article I read, stated that RYR itself may put some stress on the liver, same time though helping to stabilise the lipids etc.

The Arjuan bottle says that it's normal dose for a man is 1-2 capsules taken per day. But I don't think they mean men who plan going on a cycle. So I think I should increase the dose a little bit? Saying 3-4 capsules a day, considering that I whey 220lb?

Thanks again to all who share their knowledge!
 
But maybe it's just easier to go to my family doctor and ask some medicine for the cholesterol concern during anavar cycle...:rolleyes:
 
My underdtanding is that statins change the cholesterol process(ing) in liver and policosinol (RYR and others) prevents absorption of cholesterol. The policosinol is absorbed (or blocks the absorption) in place of the cholesterol allowing the cholesterol to pass or excrete.

No, I would think not. He will likely give you a statin drug. The Anavar, from my understanding causes cholesterol issuse through the liver process. Statins may be counterindicative with oral steroid use..or the inverse.

Ok, that I did not know. Thanks!
 
ok, results will not come by doing nothing, so I ordered 60x20mg Pilocosanol to control the cholesterol. Also planning to make a 7day Niacin treatment 1g/ED after the Anavar cycle (during PCT)

So the whole cycle will look like this:

Anavar 40-50mg ED Weeks 1-6 will split doses in two: first ~11.00, second ~8h later
Proviron 25mg ED Week 3-6 will take with Anavar in the morning
Nolvadeks (Tamoxifen) 30/20/20/10 Weeks 7-10
During cycle 20mg Policosanol ED with moring Anavar dose
Niacin 1g/ED Week 7
Flax Seed oil
Milk thistle 600mg/ED during cycle and PCT
Multivitamins + extra vitamin E (400mg/ED) and vitamin C (1000mg/ED)
and loads of water

All feedback would be more than appreciated!
