When to start PCT for higher doses of test prop
ad
So I'm aborting a test e cycle- because the shit is bunk and tapering with test e. Still want to salvage some gains.
So I'm wondering if I dose prop at 150mg eod vs 100mg do I still start pct 3 days after last pin. A lot more active hormone will still be remaining.

how long you going to taper the prop? and how do you know the gear is bunk??
BillLumberghlabs. undecided. the shorter length the better. I'm ready to PCT
this is my take on it, I COULD BE WRONG THOU. I know the half life of test-p is 4 days, so a 100 mg pin will, become 50 mgs after 4 days, than 25 mg by day 8 and so on. I know every time you pin, you reset the half life.. it would be MY assumption that you need to wait until the half life is depleted completely before you begin PCT. This is what I believe from what I've read and experience. I've always waited personally until the half life expired before I began PCT... Currently I'm playing the waiting game... But please wait until someone with more experience comments. I would like to be 100 percent sure myself, so I'm not asking the same questions.... I would feel really foolish If I had been running PCT wrong. Once again bro this is my opinion, but wait till you get someone with more under their belt to help... Good luck Bro
The half-life of testosterone P is about 19 hours.
If you are interested in other half-life's or peak plasma levels I did a write up not long ago.

You have peak plasma at 14 hours and then half life at 19 hours. Isnt that a fast drop in levels?
In this particular study it is quoted as terminal half-life which is slightly different, but in a short acting compound it won't make that much of a difference.

For anyone really interested in the subject I recommend reading the following.

BillLumberghHmm so your convinced the half life of prop is 19hrs? I've seen some say 3 and others say 4.
The reason why I ask is I pinned 200mg last Sunday morning. I just set another strength record on bench. I've started pct already, 3days after last prop pin. If half life is 19hrs there should be hardly any prop in my system.if 3 days and that's a different story, would still have at least 50mg which isn't nothing.
Hoping it's just my pct going really well
I would not have posted it if I wasn't convinced.
Here is a link of a few others that I am convinced about as well.
