Alright everyone, as I said in another thread, I have compiled echocardiogram results from right after the cycle, 4 months after the cycle and few days ago (post pneumonia echo).
What is important are cavity sizes, LVIDD (internal diameter of the left ventricle), LAD (internal diameter of the left atrium), RVIDD (right ventricle internal diameter) and the ejection fraction (shows the percentage of blood your left ventricle is able to squirt on every stroke).
All 3 echocardiograms were performed on the same machine and by the same cardiologist.
Cycle was Test E 500mg per week and I used Mast E at 200mg/week for the last 3.5 weeks.
Here we go:
3 weeks post last injection:
LVIDD 5,75cm
LAD 3,99 cm
RVIDD *no measurement
Aortic root diameter 3,05 cm
Ejection fraction 54%
After this i started "trt", 125mg per week of underdosed/blank test, so this was more like bad natty levels
4 months after the last injection
LVIDD 5,3cm
LAD 3,6 cm
RVIDD 3cm
Aortic root diameter 2,4 cm
Ejection fraction 64%
Now, between this second echo and this last i did 2 days ago, i did 8 weeks of 100mg test per week from september to november and i sporadically used mk677, i would say that i accumulated roughly 2 months on mk677 at 12.5 - 20 mg a day.
3rd echo (most recent one)
LVIDD 5,4 cm
LAD 3,5cm
RVIDD 2,9cm
Aortic root diameter 2,4 cm
Ejection fraction 62%
My conclusion?
-the measurements from my 2nd and 3rd echo which were 9 months apart are nearly identical and I believe it is safe to assume that these are my normal, baseline measurements.
- legit trt doses of up to 100mg per week do not negatively effect either the ejection fraction or cardiac cavity smeasurements
- sporadic increases in igf 1 stemming from use of mk677 (also peptides i believe since the increase in igf from peps isnt much more if any than mk) do not lead to statistically significant cardiac hypertrophy
-A moderate (~500mg per week) 10-12 week steroid cycle leads to significant (10-15%) increase in cardiac cavity sizes and also leads to significant decreases in ejection fraction, which also implies concenctric hypertrophy (thickening of the walls of the heart) it is safe to assume cardiac mass is also significantly increased
- cardiac hypertrophy induced by AAS is reversible in a short time frame, 3-4 months is enough to see positive changes in ejection fraction (which means that heart walls are decreasing in thickness) and normalization of cavity sizes
This is NOT my pledge to refrain from using aas. I simply put out this information for informational and awareness purposes.
I am a libertarian and dont care what anyone else does with their own body as long as it doesnt negatively affect me (e.g. a family member using harsh drugs etc)
If there is anything that I would advise based on this is that time OFF is mandatory not only for the sake of regaining natural T production but also for normalizing other, much more important aspects of your organism.
