Im planning a cycle of either test or sd in the future (still 6 months away) and need to decide between sd or a small test cycle but need to weigh the pros and cons. I know that the gains will be more sudden and dramatic with sd but that there is much more to a successful sd cycle than a test cycle (lipid/liver protection etc). My question is how much more significant would the gains be on an average sd cycle than on a test cycle of 250mg/wk for 10 weeks and which gains would be more keepable with the proper pct. My biggest concern is safety, I realize they are both steroids and have inherant dangers than can be reduced through proper use but which is considered to do less permanent damage on the body, from the info I have gathered test would be the safer option due to sd's methylation and the damage on lipid profile and the liver. should I sell my sd and go get some test????
