PCT & Feeling Terrible

[VAGeo15]

Hey guys,

I'm currently feeling miserable a few weeks into PCT. Wanted to describe it, and see what kind of advice or similar stories are out there.

- I was on Test E 1000mg weekly, Masteron Prop and Proviron. Cycle was 15 weeks (ran a little long, I know)
- Began to run HCG 10 days after I stopped the Test. 1500mg 3 times a week, two weeks total.
- Began Clomid at 100mg for first 3 days, then 75mg for 3 days, and now 50mg. Clomid began after first week of HCG.
- So I'm a week into the Clomid now. HCG is finished.
- And I feel terrible! To start with, I dropped almost ten pounds quickly, without trying. I'm low energy, little motivation/drive, strength decrease, poor sleep, lower libido, acne and more. Some depression also, perhaps because of these symptoms being strong.
- Have you experienced something similar to this before? Any advice for me??

Youre not taking an ai with pct.. explains half your symptoms already you need an AI in PCT especially when you blkast HCG before hand nothing raises intratesticular estrogen more than HCG especially at those doses.. guarentee estrogen is through the moon. Get aromasin dose 12.5mg ed or eod

Good point - how did I forget to list my AI?
-Arimidex 1mg EOD

Switch to aromasin.. prevents rebound gyno, less harsh on lipids, and isnt notorious for making people feel like garbage lol. Its a suicide inhibitor way better than Adex in every aspect imo

I'd wager a significant reason to why you are feeling many of these symptoms is due to your clomid dose you have used this last week.

Didn't even notice that. Yeah, no need to go above 50mg with clomid.

Felt a good bit better lowering Clomid to 50mg and bumping up Adex 1mg to ED for a few days...

Though still decidedly different than expected. Coming off the Test made a way bigger impact than I anticipated...

Looks like you got all the advice .. just hang in there .. Serms are no joke, itll be over soon

Keep focused on your diet/training .. keep pushing yourself

You should be fine with 25mg if you are still feeling the clomid side effects.

clomid 25mg ed for 6 - 8 weeks nolva 20/20/10/10/10/10 6-8weeks is my new go to cycle.. the longer the PCT the longer your levels are levated for allowing your body to adjust to making large amounts ago hopefully helping you to get new test numbers to stick. also the lower doses make PCT side effect free besides feeling like garbage just from low test

also aromasin is best for pct or prepare for rebound estro..

100 is mad high right?

100mg was for first 3 days only. Advice I was given...

Who ever gave you that advice, obviously had no idea what they were talking about. The issue with clomid is, it has a short acting estrogen receptor antagonist isomer and an extremely long half life estrogenic isomer. So dosing that high will likely lead to the bad side effects of clomid which will linger for a long time.

Anything he can do other than drop the dose and wait at this point?
