Cycle while on TRT, no need for PCT right?
ad
Hi guys,
Was just about to start a cycle of Test E 500mg + EQ 500mg for 10 weeks, went to get bloods done first and have low Testostorone... been put on TRT.
I still want to run the odd cycle but to my understanding I don't need to worry about PCT now I'm on replacement anyways, do I have this correct?
Also how long after my last pin of the cycle should I leave it before I go for my next blood test so nothing suss shows up?
Thanks!

Depends on your lab results. My HRT doc looks at DHEA levels, free & total T, estrogen (which is actually very important) etc. I use PCT with normal HRT...just at lowered dosages.
I’m 34 and I talked my doc into putting me on TRT after he saw my bloods. He put me on the lame dosage of 200mg every 2 wks dosage. I started feeling like shit by the second week so I took it upon myself to swap to 100mg every week and that worked much better for me. If you are serious about running a cycle just run test first and keep the EQ for later. Stick with 1 compound on your first run. I did my TRT for several months and then did a test only cycle of 750mg a week. I am now on 900mg a week. I plan to cruise, blast from hear on out (no PCT). I’ve got two kids & not really thinking about more. Listen to the guys around hear…there are some real stand up guys that know what they are talking about. Good luck to you.
How many prior official cycles? Last real cycle recently?
Never done any before, I was about to start when I got the bloods done and found out I was low.
Started TRT today but still want to try a cycle to see how I respond, then will prob blast and cruise on TRT.
Well honestly ur particular situation is a little difficult to say what should be done. Personally I'm a bit torn on what to say here. I looked at ur stats and seen ur already 40yrs old. I'm also assuming u don't have any plans on having kids in the future. So that brings us to whether a blast should come first or a cruise. I'm all for jumping on a cycle and doing test e/c for 12 wks but definitely not test and EQ. To take it even further I would actually like to see u get to know exogenous test a little bit before u go blasting 500mgs of test. Research is the key here. Having all the necessary ancillaries on hand prior is a must. Always always always be prepared for the worst. Look up aromatase inhibitors. Research a good src for it and get some. Find some letro cuz gyno doesn't care if your 20 or 40 yrs old. Make a decision if you feel hcg is for u. Research why u might want to use it and what exactly it does. Remember that you have no experience with AAS and therefore you won't be able to distinguish what will be or might happen to your body on a cycle. Getting to know what a TRT dose of 200 mg wk will do for you. I've been there and loved the changes. Believe me you will change.
After a while you can make the decision to blast. But only after you feel you have established an extensive knowledge base and are confident in your ability to address any on cycle issues without begging for help. So long story short, cruise for a while. 4-6 months is my recommendation before you consider boosting ur dosage. Listen to ur body and pay close attention to the changes that occur. Without knowing these things your going to be unprepared for any kind of blast.
Hey bud, thanks for your detailed reply.
I'll certainly do some thinking about the points you bought up.
Def not wanting any kids, so no concerns there!
The TRT the doc put me on is Testosterone Undecanoate 1000mg every 12 weeks
Will see how it goes for a while
Sorry for long delay. GS is correct. Especially til you feel regular and going again. Test U? The pills?
Nope, injections 1000mg 4ml every 12 weeks
Different approach. Cool!
Ya I've not heard heard of that yet. Mostly Cyp n Prop.
It goes by the brand name Reandron 1000
There's a bit of talk about it on the net, some good some bad (like all things)
Some say dosage should be every 8 - 10 weeks cause there's a bit of a rollercoaster at 12 week intervals, others say it's no problem.
AnonIt's big in europe, officially released as nebido. It's Test Und in castor oil, the castor oil gives it an extended release effect. Chinese released it first in Tea seed oil but the half life wasn't as long.
Enough history lesson, 12wks is a bit long on the TU and the dosage is on the low side. If you get the chance to dose yourself I would lower the time between doses to at least 8wk.
Ya it's just one mans recommendation brother. Like I said I woulnt be opposed to u doing a 12 wk test e/c run @500mg wk. I just speak from personal experience. When I first started my TRT I was perscribed 200mg/wk and I loved it. It took me about 6months to feel confident enough to expand my dosage. Let's see if Tread chimes in he's the Guru around here.
