OK - So maybe some skilled amateur endocrinologists out there in the Eroids community can help me figure out this baffling event.

I've ran cycles. PLENTY of cycles over the years. Started around 25. I'm now 36. My most recent cycle completion was a real basic 12 week test prop / test enth. Keep in mind that I've scaled back from my more advanced cycle use in former glory years. Why? Kid factor. I've recently had two (daughter and son) and looking to add a third soon. So, yeah, I've always been diligent about my PCT protocol with clomid, letro, and hcg. No problems in the sperm fertilization department.

So what's the deal? Well I completed that last testosterone cycle nearly several months back now, and had a great rebound from my PCT regimen. Looking back, the few times anything went askew was in my dumbass / inexperienced 20's when I'd get leaky nips and quickly shut down those shenanigans with letro. Never had any hard or thickend tissue around my pecs or nips.

Well, last night all is going well, fine, dandy, and normal. I'm sitting around the dinner table after a meal with the family casually sipping a glass of wine. My left nipple starts to itch, so I kinda scratch it, and to my surprise I feel a dime sized fleshy perturbance underneath my nipple. Being naturally inquisitive, I started to poke and prod at it, alongside a few squeezes to ascertain measurement. Well lo and behold the damn thing begins to ache and swell up, to the extent that whenever I stretched my arms back it would itch and then commence with internal singes of pain. Very strange. I chalked things up to unnecessary irritation and went to bed.

This morning I woke up and my nipple was puffy and ovbiously swollen. Once again, I figured minor irritation and just give it time and the body will heal itself type mentality. So I go to the gym to lift back, and when I'm on the incline bench doing reverse pulls, my chest is rubbing on the bench. I feel the nipple irritation get stronger to the point that I cut my sets short.

Flash-forward: Underneath my nipple there is this long, growing 1.5 inch rash that is spreading and a very painful knot of flesh that almost feels like a marble.....

What the fuck is this? Has anyone heard of gyno springing up months or even years later from the culmination of steroid cycles?

Keep in mind, up until this stage, I have NEVER had a problem with rebound, fertility, gyno - PERIOD. I did a cycle, got my gains, had a brief shut-down and then BANG! I was back in business.

If anyone has some insight on this I'd be much obliged. If things get worse should I book out an appointment with a endo for assessement? Perhaps I should just take a regimen of letro as some backwater treatment beforehand?

I'm very complexed my the matter at hand. Perhaps being old balls at 36 has finally caught up with me....
