Will my Testosterone levels return to previous levels after my first Test E steroid cycle?

Hi!

I am new here (age 35) and I have been researching about two things for my first ever cycle that I want to do.

1) Irreversible harmful effects of my cycle. Will I never gain my previous natural Test production or will my test production will stop completely(article on anabolic minds says it can)? What are the chances of my failure to get to my previous level or stop? Chatgpt says 10 to 30 people fail out of 100.

2) Losing gains after my cycle. Will I lose my gain even with irregular nutrition and diet? I read here that natural test production after cycle will determine how much gains will remain. I dont want to waste the risk that I take.


This will be my 'Only Cycle', I promise. :)

Here is my plan:
During Cycle- 2months

1. Testosterone Enanthate - 250 to 500 mg per week,
2. Anastrozole- 0.5 mg every other day
3. Tamoxifen 10mg every third day

PCT
1. HCG on the last day of cycle. 2 weeks wait to flush Test E.
HCG once a week for 2 weeks.
What should be my HCG dose?

2. Anastrozole 1mg every other day for 4 weeks.
3. Tamoxifen 10mg every third day

Thanks in advance for your expert and experienced advice.
 
You can’t garantuee to return to your previous baseline. However if you make your on cycle / pct as comprehensive as possible you’ll give yourself the best shot.

You can expect to keep most of the gains made on cycle (75-85%), with proper diet & the intensity of your training along with a solid PCT. You need to workout just as hard / harder than you were on cycle in PCT. Make sure you Chuck in a clinically dosed test booster such as M-Test, or Clomaplex if you’re not using a SERM for pct
 
With such a short and low dose cycle, you should 100% recover. Most people that experience permanent shutdown were on for very long periods of time and using multiple steroids for high dosages. In my opinion you are using way too much Anastrozole as well. You are going to crater your estrogen along with your lipid profile. There is simply no need for such high dosages with only 250-500mg of test. That is barely a "cycle". Its low dosed and very short.

Please do not ever use Chatgpt for steroid advice.
 
I am not a cycle expert but I think the AI(aromatase inhibitor) should be used On-Cycle and the SERM should be used as PCT 1 wk after your final pin of test-e.
I recently finished a cycle of Epi-andro, 4-Andro, and RAD 150 and ran the Tamoxifen at 20mg/day for 3wks and have been taking 10mg/day for the last wk.

With the cycle only being 250-500mg, you "might" need .5mg Anastrozole per week. The half life of Test E is 7 days so you won't even begin to see anything estrogen related for weeks. In my opinion, you won't even need HCG on a 2 month cycle. Completely overkill.
 
My testosterone rebounded after two cycles at 49 and 50 years old.
Test/Tren and Test/NPP/Mast.
The second cycle took longer to rebound. Higher doses and longer esters. I should have PCT'd differently, ran HCG a little longer. I had 2 weeks at the end of PCT that were crappy (boner-wise).
In other words, it is possible to return to "normal".
My normal test ranges from 800-1100.
