Starting my 2 bottle run in August, I'll happily post up a review. This is my favorite compound, great energy, recovery, sleep and mood, and that was on a cut. Snuck a rep or two in here and there, pumps were more pronounced as well. Synergistic with anything out there. I feel this compound is waaaaay slept on, has the potential to make anything else being ran even better.

Any sides? Did you do any bloods?

I can only speak from my past oral run, won't be starting the topical until August.
For the oral, I ran it at 150 mgs per day, 2 doses. Took one upon waking and another mid day. First thing I noticed was more alertness and energy by day 2-3. Thought it was just "Trying something new and excited" placebo, but it never went away in nearly 6 weeks. Sleep was a bit better, not much but enough that I noticed. Chalking it up to waking up feeling more well rested. Mood was really good, nothing really bothered me. Similar to 900-1200 mgs of epi, but not as much alpha feeling, more like a quiet confidence, not as easy to trigger, with a let's get **** done mentality. Endurance went up, I was able to rest less between sets and knock out an extra rep here and there, nothing crazy. Did not really notice a strength increase, some will argue that more reps meant strength went up, but when I tried heavier weight, the reps weren't there, go figure. Granted, I was on a decent cut, but pretty much all the negatives I've ever associated from a cut were absent. Lost nearly 12lbs. It did make me hungrier, but that just comes down to putting the cheeseburger down and walking away. Pumps were definitely more pronounced; it was pretty obvious. So for sides, I didn't have any bad ones at all, only good ones but please keep in mind, this was not billed as a "Strong" oral, like the methylated prohormones of lore.
No bloods were done, so that could be a negative, I suppose. Like to think I know my body well and do a good job with it, so anything out of the ordinary, I would like to think I would have noticed.
I'll preach this to everyone that will listen, this compound is severely slept on. The mood boost, energy and pumps alone are well worth the price of admission, and I can easily see this being one of the best stackers out there. My lifts did suffer a bit for almost 2 weeks, but rebounded nicely to where they were pre-diet, and I was able to bump the reps a bit now and then. After the 6 weeks, ran enclomiphene and Torem for 4 weeks, lost some vascularity, endurance and pumps, kept the weights the same and most of the reps ( I suck something awful at bench), but also bumped calories a bit by 150 per day.
Like I said earlier, I'll be starting the topical in August, and will update as time permits. Any other questions, please feel free to ask and I'll get back as soon as I can.

Thanks for your amazing review man, i appreciate it. What you described is excactly what im looking from a compound to give me, nothing more northing less.
The problem and the main concern of mine is the hair loss situation, which is really important for me, thats mainly why i havent pulled the trigger yet. Beeing a dht related compound even though its supposed not to convert triggers me unfortunatetly.

You are most welcome. Been around for quite some time, just don't post much, unless it's something I know works and have used. No hair loss for me, then again, I've been aerodynamic for nearly 30 years after I cut off my ponytail, hair never grew back lol. Do keep in mind, not everyone is the same, so you may very well respond differently than me to the hair loss aspect, just saying.
Funny thing is, I've used various flavors of the week for nootropics, stims, pre-workouts, etc and none have put me in quite the good mood, pump, endurance and focus as 3ad. Don't get me wrong, they've touched on some parts of the experience, but never quite covered the whole benefit of 3ad. Only bummer was no real strength increase, just gained a rep or two and intra rest went down. My workouts are pretty much opposing muscle supersets, say chest/back, with rest being however long it takes me to go from exercise to exercise, aiming for 15-20 sets per body part per week, obviously less on the high intensity intervals. I'll mix it up with volume and high intensity here and there as well.
I know some will read this and be upset that I didn't notice any strength gains, per se and I get it. Please do keep in mind that lost nearly 12 lbs. over the course of 6 weeks while pretty much maintaining my lifts, adding a rep here or there, and not being pissy from dieting, while also sleeping well. I'm sure others will be miffed at the cost and no gains, but I'd argue it did exactly what it was supposed to with no sides that I noticed. Granted, I did not have bloods done, but a bit over a month after concluding PCT I had bloodwork done at a work event, and the only markers high were my creatinine, which is to be expected for someone active adn my age.

Mild strength increase, notropic bonuses and some muscle endurance.
A very mild compound overall but I haven’t run Rob’s version, and I’m still interested in doing that in the future as I know the raws/doseage he uses are top notch

I have not used the transdermal, but am looking forward to the 2 bottles I just got. With that being said, for me, the standouts from the oral version I ran was: great mood boost, really smooth energy, ability to crank out a few reps here and there, good help with recomp, and improved recovery. Mind you, I was cutting calories. Loved the compound, run was painless and pct was super easy.

Just copying my final review of 3AD after running 3 bottles. I would also like to add I believe the price tag is worth it just for the incredible positive energy it gave.
Mood:
The best aspect of this product (in my opinion) was the positive mood. It was like the feel good effects of Test without any sort of aggression/irritability whatsoever. Nothing seemed to bother me, and I just felt extremely positive the entire run. I feel as though this out performed actual stress relief/mood support products I’ve used in the past.
10/10
Results:
While I was initially in a deficit beginning 3AD, I finished around maintenance calories. It certainly had a muscle hardening effect but nothing outrageous. Can’t say muscle “pump” was improved but vascularity certainly popped out, especially shoulders, which I noticed early on. I seemed to get slightly leaner and fuller every week regardless of the calories I was at. I actually gained about 3.5 lbs one week due to me hitting my maintenance calories, but then lost 3 lbs by the end of the run. So clearly some strong recomp effects taking place. I wasn’t training for strength, but I did notice endurance went up a fair amount which absolutely added more volume throughout my workouts. It certainly met then exceeding my expectations of what can be purchased OTC. In my opinion, it gives you that taste of old school products but just a bit weaker overall. Favorite Iconic product by far.
Side effects:
While I didn’t notice anything Estrogen/DHT related, I started to experience high blood pressure. Lots of headaches and shortness of breath which ultimately led me to end my run a bit earlier than anticipated. My goal was to test the waters and see how high I could go and for me 150mg (4 pumps) was too high. If I could do it over, I would’ve kept it at 3 pumps and just ran additional blood pressure supps.
I did run this solo, so I believe the recommended dose should stay at 2 pumps if someone was to stack it with another compound. I hope this review benefits you guys. Stay strong AM family.

Thanks again for the review. Hit the nail on the head with mood, I can't recall anything that's dialed it in quite like 3AD, that was the hardest part to give up after my run.

absolutely love it!! Glad somebody reputable brought it back out, thank you! The transdermal is new to me, did zoo's old Swole Patrol and loved it, but you were right, the transdermal is stronger. I personally feel it is super slept on, it just makes the daily soooo much easier. Solo I enjoyed, while on a cut, better sleep, recovery, mood, increased cognitive effects and pumps. It just hit so many angles I thought it couldn't be, but ran it for 2 months and it mostly stayed the same, some days a bit more and some days less, but the effects listed were always there. I was even more impressed since I was cutting. Now running it in my log with Icon One, Icon 11 and Arimahex, the same solo feeling is there, just not as pronounced, everything is kinda blending together in a synergy, if you will. I certainly know it's there, as I've ran all compounds solo, and I know if it wasn't, recovery, pumps mood/cognitive effects wouldn't be nearly as present, and I would be a bit more tired. Sleep isn't as good as when I ran it solo, it's not horrible by any means, just not as good. Icon One didn't give me lethargy, but I had a bit less energy on it, but when I got to the gym, all good. Just the mood alone is worth it for me with 3AD, and the mental edge. I will continue to buy it as long as it's available. The application is painless and couldn't be simpler, I got 2 of the white label bottles. Glides right on and dries right quick. I will say this, if I put it on directly after a hot shower, I can feel it, mood wise and alert wise. within a couple of minutes. I've actually forgotten my coffee more than once now for work as it energizes me that much when I do it right after the shower. I've since practiced some patience.

The mood part is amazing, but reminds me of dht related benefit.. which can could come with sides too.

For me, can't speak of others, I feel it's a better version for what I need/ want. There is less aggression, but more of a focus. There is a boost in "Alpha Male" mentality, but nowhere near ultra hard. Better cognitive effects, energy sleep and recovery. Pumps are close, I would give the edge to 3AD. Recovery I would say is mostly the same, maybe leaning a bit more towards 3AD. This is all solo from a cut, mind you. It really made it painless in every sort of the way. For me, it's got a nootropic effect. Running it with a stack now and I know it's keeping lethargy at bay, and keeping me sharp in the morning meetings, calls, seminars. The solo run was oral, this transdermal is stronger. Put it this way, if I take it away, it's noticeable. It makes the daily life much easier, the solo run reminded me of how I felt in my late 20's. For me, the mood and energy/focus is worth it alone, everything else is an added bonus. Like Androhard, it won't realistically deposit tons of muscle or magically recomp your frame, but it makes a great partner to accomplish that. If you have realistic, grounded expectations, in my opinion, it will meet them. Some say it's pricey and the gainz aren't as good as stronger stuff, but my counter is how many sides do you want to deal with and how complicated do you want your PCT to be, and what kind of gains do you expect to keep? When I factor all those in, it's a great deal. Minimal sides (none for me, pulse is up 2 from 64, no BP increase), PCT is easy, maybe lose a few pounds here and a few pounds there on lifts/ more intra rest time but the mirror still looks great ( okay, maybe only good), loss of energy/ mental edge. I keep saying it and I mean it, very slept on. Funny thing for me is, it's not the typical reason I hate coming off it, it's the loss of mental sharpness and mood that hits the hardest. As someone who is always depressed ( I find ways to be happy, only my close friends know this) this is what hits the hardest when coming off. Over the years, I've gotten far better at managing it, but being on takes all that off my shoulders, and when I'm off, it feels like it comes back 1000%, but that's only cause I had a break from it and need to re-acclimate. It's like taking Tylenol for your hand and then it wear off and you back, ankle and neck hurt all of a sudden lol, when in reality, they always hurt, you just got acclimated to it and now you have to again.

I’m going to give this another try. First time I tried it I saw results in 3 days, but for some reason I always felt nauseous while on it. That was the beta version and I think the delivery formula has been changed. Not sure it’ll make a difference but willing to give it another shot just due to the quick results I started seeing. Thinking back I wasn’t hydrating enough so that’ll be a priority. Probably won’t start for a while due some things going on in my life, but already ordered a couple bottles from flex-it.
Quick question - how significantly does this impact RBC/HCT levels?
Also, what is the shelf life?

It's too bad I can't get this product in Canada. The reviews make this sound like a dream anabolic product but our stupidly restrictive laws make enjoying stuff like this rather difficult.

Should not be suppressive with standard use length and moderate dosing - at higher doses and longer cycles, it's said it may be mildly suppressive
We've had pretty good luck shipping to Canada
If stored properly, it should be 2 years.
for RBC/HCT - I don't have data on this, but based on the MOA...I don't think it should have impact
@DR.D - maybe he can chime in on some specifics on the RBC/HCT

Solo run it was very mild, but I always legit PCT. Although it suppresses bad mood and low energy extremely well! Seriously, it was very easy to get back up to standard after coming off. I like enclomiphene and Torem.

Following. Started epiandro using stano from cel and ultra epi from iconic. Was dosing around the 900 MG range. Depending on my work schedule I'd do 2 epiandro pill form (600) prior to workout then apply 4 pumps of ultra epi in the evening. I started the 3ad, ultra three, 2 days ago and the mood boost is noticeable at 2 pumps per day. To see more recomp would it be ideal to go to 3 pumps or stay at 2 in combination with the epiandro? Of course my diet is in check and not expecting miracles but want to get the most out of it?

Glad to hear you like the mood boost, wait til' the focus comes in! It should add some increased endurance and pumps, at least it did for me. I nver ran it with epi, so I can't fully comment. If you've ran epi before, then you know what to expect and can adjust the 3ad dosing to fit. I'm around 178 now, 3 more lbs to lose, and 2 pumps for me is plenty, careful immediately after a hot shower, it kicks in quick, for me, waiting a few minutes after helps in be more gradual. For a first run, I'd keep it at 2 pumps, for the course, so you can gauge it, then next run, have at it. I'm sure others will chime in, but I'm a run at the lowest dose for results guy. First time I ran it was oral, this time is the transdermal, both time on cuts, and I've never ran anything or taken any supplement that prevents me from being grumpy like this stuff, it puts me in the best mood of my life. Solo run it even helped me sleep a bit better, this run, not as much, but it's being stacked. I guess it would help to know what exactly your recomp goal is? Kudos to you for on point diet and realistic expectations. In my opinion, this compound just makes everything else easier, it's like sunshine on a rainy day, don't know how else to put it. If you can stay in a good mood, it's great for you and those around you and makes the cut sooooo much easier.
Quick question, the 4 pumps in the evening doesn't keep you up? I know it would for me, just curious.
BigSWOLE25

Thank you for the feedback. I'll keep it at 2 pumps and gauge it. The epiandro topical doesn't keep me up like the pill form does. I tried taking 2 capsules in the evening and I was up late. As far as recomp goals I want to preserve muscle mass and cut some bf. Doing l.i.s.s cardio in the mornings fasted and cut my cabs back which is the formula for me.

Ultra Three is honestly an amazing product. I noticed the energy boost and pumps right away, and within a week my recovery improved so much that I was able to train six times a week, whereas before I needed 2–3 rest days.
Right now, I’m running 2 pumps along with 112 mg of Enhanced Labs 3-AD pills, and the combination has been fantastic for both pumps and energy. I’d definitely recommend Ultra Three and the 3-AD pills—either from Enhanced or, even better, from 3ADPro LLC.
The only downside is the price of the raw 3-AD compound. From what I’ve heard, it’s really hard and expensive to produce, which explains the cost. Still, it’d be awesome if the price eventually came down to something closer to regular prohormones or solid supplement brands like SNS.
