+ 21 from TRT to natty again?

ad

I would like to hear from guys that successfully brought themselves back from TRT or continuous years of cycling to natty again.

Anybody on here done it? and what was your PCT protocol?

Roid Noid's picture

Thank you, Im not holding my breath to anything going smooth in this recovery! lol

I have no personal experience with this, but I can tell you what my doctor said. I'm on trt due to a medication that lowers test levels significantly ( suboxone) and I'm pretty damn sure my test levels were in the shitter anyways from the years of drug use. But my doc seems to think we can keep me on trt until I come off the subs and then drop the test and I will bounce back. Now we all know doctors don't really know it all. But with the large assortment of drugs at our disposal I think it's possivle. Clomid nolva aromasin torem hcg hmg and then triptorlin. I may take some time and patience and a few different reboot protocols but I think it can be done. I recently helped someone else do this so pm me if you want the protocols I used with him

My dr. Has me on trt for the same reason I am 28 and am surprised to find someone else my age with a dr that is as forward thinking as well. I used to feel like utter shit no energy no sex drive. He doesn't have a clue what he is doing as far as prescribing and has me on 400mg a week. Not a typo with no ai. So im on my own there but I have lots of pharma test for future cycles.

Ya I got blessed to find her she's the best. She doesn't know anything about trt either I had to tell her what to prescribe me, what ai dose, why I need hcg etc. she just listens to me. But she's open minded and she knows she doesn't know it all. I love this last she's the coolest. She knows I use growth and stuff also.

Im very happy with mine for the most part been seing him and his with who run a small practice together for four years and have been on trt for almost 3. I can be 100% honest with him Hes closing his practice in a few months, And I am stressed at the rhought of finding another doc.

irongame427's picture

Ya she was very honest about all the sides from the drug. Really got blessed with this doctor she's the best.

Roid Noid's picture

im sure with a experienced endocrinologist it could be done in many cases.

Engineereddisaster's picture

Noid, I think you should go for it bro. Give it a good six months before throwing in the towel.
I think you will be able to do it.

Roid Noid's picture

im gonna give it a shot, thats for sure, should be in the next month.

Engineereddisaster's picture

Awesome. I think there are probably a lot of guys in your situation that would love to go back to natty.

Pale's picture

There are even guys like me that just went TRT but would love to know that we can get out in the future without turning into a fat, sexless, turnip..

vhman's picture

Aint that the truth! It seems that every youngster (and many oldsters), think that TRT is glorious and beautiful. What could be wrong with being "on" all the time. The reality is far different....
I've gone to test-u, which is far fewer pinning's which has helped, but I long for a day where I could be back to normal again... I guess we can dream.

irongame427's picture

And people also think that trt means you don't lose any gains in betwen cycles. Sorry but that's not the case. Trt brings you to natural levels, assuming you're doijg it right. So the only difference is on trt you avoid that 1-4 week period with very low test levels during pct. if you don't keep training and diet up on trt betwen cycles you will still lose what you gained.

Pale's picture

It is truly a double edged sword. I probably did not stretch out the time between my cycles as far as I should have. That lead to my natty test not recovering worth a damn. But the other issue for me with PCT is the whipsaw on your body and mind just isn't good for you at this age. I think in our forty's it comes down to basically all or nothing. Of course all of us are slightly different and some guys are just genetic freaks that can bounce right back over and over. I found out I am not one of them. I admit I feel sooo much better on just a trt dose of cyp but in the back of my head that question of how I will feel in the future always begs..

vhman's picture

It is a hard decision either way. My cause is partially genetic and also aas use at a young age and not pct (no one ever talked about pct back when I was young).
I feel so much better on TRT, but all the pinning gets very old and having to deal with travel and the like as well. I guess we have to take the good with the bad, but it sure would be nice to not have worry about it.

Sulo's picture

i wanna say something, when i was in pct taking pharma grade clomid,nolva,daa.
In the end of first week my balls started to hurt, why is that over stimulation or what...

MegaT883's picture

What were you levels 4 yrs ago natural?

Roid Noid's picture

before cycle i dont know, but everything was working great. after a cycle of deca and tren I went off and 2 months later had a 136...bad protocol on the whole thing, no labs prior, ran deca to long then went into cut with tren and finished with only half PCT in hand.

RonMexico's picture

I guess it is good to have an exit strategy.....but why go off TRT in the first place? The only reason I would go off is out of necessity..

Roid Noid's picture

because it sucks! I hate TRT its nothing compared to how I used to be. especially sex drive.

You should look into GnRH agonist such as Triptorelin. Its the only thing that actually directly stimulates LH and FSH production. Here are a couple of studies on it:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3739368/

http://www.ergo-log.com/triptorelin.html

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20416868/

What the drug is actually designed for is prostate cancer. Why you ask? Well it is so powerful it can actually cause the pituitary gland to "dump" all of its LH and FSH to the point that it induces hypogonadism. Now the doses given to cause hypogonadism are a lot higher then the typical 100mcg, but it shows how powerful the peptide is. I currently have 2 vials of the stuff in my freezer just incase I need it.

Triptorelin

read about it a few years ago, looked around for anybody that it worked for at that time and pretty sure I didnt see any. Generally I will do research on something and not remember the research but what I thought about the idea, and my conclusion to reading all about it was that it was bullshit. Or at the very least that i have no interest in it.

https://www.eroids.com/forum/steroids-qa/anabolic-steroids/triptorelin

this is from 2 years ago when I first heard about it.

crazymofo's picture

BB used it before it seems. He replies to a post a while back.

https://www.eroids.com/forum/steroids-qa/pct-anti-estrogens/triptorelin-...

There are 3 different methods I have seen when people have used it. One is a pre PCT booster, second is just a stand alone PCT and third is a post PCT booster.

crazymofo's picture

I wish there was more user experience but it seems to be a compound people just have no faith in or are unaware of and never use it. But I keep it in my stash just in case I might need it. Its pretty cheap and the worst thing that would happen is it just did nothing. Assuming of course what I purchased is actual Trip and dosed correctly.

Roid Noid's picture

If we had some people that could vouch for it I would consider it, its been around plenty long enough for sucess stories to be abound and they are just not there.

Catalyst's picture

No real data to make a decision on. The science behind it is unconvincing at best.

Pale's picture

I distinctly remember that triptorellin also had the possibility of chemical castration. Fuck that, no matter how low the odds that scared me off.

crazymofo's picture

Yea that's its primary use. Typically dosed at 4mg multiple times to castrate a prostate cancer patient to stop testosterone production in hopes to slow/stop cancer growth. I would only take as a last ditch effort to prevent TRT.

Roid Noid's picture

So this is my PCT protocol at this point

HMG 75iu/EOD 1-40 days
HCG 1000iu/ED 1-50 days
Clomid 100/100/100/50/50/50/50/50
nolva 40/40/40/20/20/20/20/20
adex .25 EOD

I think that is pretty aggressive, but its been 4 years, so well see if anything comes back. anybody got anything else to add? I will post up when I start this. thanks for feedback thus far.

Roid Noid's picture

I was thinking about doing something like that towards the end. But that sounds pretty good actually....

cry_havoc's picture

Be careful with the HCG for that long. It will also convert to estro and while your running an AI and Serms it could rebound.

Roid Noid's picture

even with adex alongside it? if I have a estro problem can't I just up my dex dose?

cry_havoc's picture

Yes you can. I was just making you aware that HCG also converts once you get past a certain point. I have never taken more than 2500 IU's every other day for more than 16 days so I do not have the personal experience to say at what point is too much.

Roid Noid's picture

I dont have much of an idea either, im sure just like with many cycles and compounds I have used ill adjust along the way to control it. I keep you posted once I get going with this.

cry_havoc's picture

Thanks. I would like to track your progress on this venture. Best of luck!

Catalyst's picture

If you're going to bounce back, that's going to give you a good shot at it. Interested to see how it pans out for you.

solidman's picture

Adex can be taken instead of aromasin for pct? Did not know that, good luck with your recovery sir.

Roid Noid's picture

well what is the difference between adex, aromasin and letro?

rolltide3's picture

Don't use adex during pct. It has an estrogen rebound when u stop taking it. That's why guys use an suicidal ai like aro. Even dr scally used aromisin bc it has no estrogen rebound

Roid Noid's picture

so if I ran adex well after i stopped HCG you still think itll rebound? I have a fair amount of dex and only a little mason, I tried mason years ago and it made me feel like shit so I never picked up anymore.

rolltide3's picture

U will have estrogen rebound when u stop adex. It can ruin all the effort u put Into a pct. Unfortunately u need aromisin for pct. U are goin to face a very hard pct and I'd hate to see u put all this time and effort just to fail at the end bc u stop taking adex. It's very very counterproductive. Basically your aromisin won't unbond from estrogen and Adex will after u stop using it. This way your Clomid and nova can go to producing lh in your testes and pituitary. If u have a bunch of estrogen from an estrogen rebound then your Clomid and nova loses most of its effectiveness
