TRT + low dose Primo

ad

Hope I’m the right place to ask I’m over 40 and on TRT 4+ years.

I’ve been running 150-175mg Pharm grade Test-C and Pharm grades low dose g nandrolone (50-100mg) per week. My labs look great and no issues other than nandrolone makes me hold alittle extra water.

I was thinking of switching the nandrolone out for pharm grade low dose primo maybe 100mg a week as I’m not looking to huge just like that little exta bump to help feel great and look good. Plus get ride of water for more of a dry look .

Has anyone tried this and ideas or feedback?

I've been thinking about something similar.

Few months back I tried to bump test up to 500 and had some awful sides. AI sides were worse and I'm apparently sensitive to it. Ended up pulling back to trt dose of 120. I got my hands on primo for a good price. I want to use a lose dose for a few months with higher test instead of an ai. I'm thinking of starting at 400/100 and getting bloods there to see where I'm at.

My best actual TRT dose is probably 150 mg/week, which puts me at 850ish

I've run Primo with test when I was up at 200 mg/week, with 200 test and 150 primo. Not sure the primo was actually doing much but I felt good

I'd probably just stick with the 150 test/100 mg Deca personally, and if you feel like spicing things up for a bit go for like 300 test/250 primo

Personally if I go above a 0.75:1 primo to test ratio it crashes my E2 and I feel like smashed assholes

Did you add primo? I did and crashed my estrogen. 120 mg of test a week then added 100 mg of primo and was getting gains but then anxiety and irritability came in. Estrogen went from 100 to 23.

So im probably going to get some shit for this but I'm on 175 test and 100 primo a week. It's been 3 months and tbh for trt it's good. Especially for my attitude. Less bitchy. More outgoing. There's an amazing src here for it and I do .5 sust and .5 primo and feel so much better than just test.

The 100mg Deca at the very least offers some joint lubrication and water retention. The 100mg primo on the other hand....would just be a waste of oil to be injecting at that low of amount IMO. Primo is truly one of those rare "more is better" drugs. I'd keep on rocking with the Deca, but that's just me. Especially since you mentioned bloods/labs being great...(if it aint broken, why try and fix it) primo might lower estrogen some (might, not certainly, but its known to cause it) then you run into a balancing act. Good luck

Yep. 100mg of primo is a waste of good primo.

Thanks for the feedback your reasoning is solid. I would like to get away from the fluid retention from nandrolone. I really didn’t expect low dose to give me any retention, but it does maybe so I’m sensitive to it.

I stopped nandrolone four weeks back to lean out for trip to Asia. The retention left within a few weeks and I looked much firmer and more ripped. The nandrolone no doubt helped get that way it’s just the fluid retention hides it with a more fuller look.

That’s why I considered adding a dryer compound like primo. I don’t have experience with primo just alot of reading and wondered if 100mg on top of trt would give me any effect at all. I wouldn’t expect 5lbs of muscle gained just was thinking help keep what I’ve build and maybe give a leaner dry look .

Where does 150-175 mg put your test levels at?

Terry381's picture

With Pharm grade Empower test at 150mg I’m 950-1000ish.

At 175mg I’m 1200ish

This has stayed really the same for years like a Swiss clock.

Ive always had higher SHBG which gives me lower free T fcomoare to most guys running the same dose
