Finished my first cycle plan, any advice?
First cycle down below in the screenshot:
PCT:
Using STEMs,
Week 1-2: Tamoxifen 40mg daily
Week 3-4: Tamoxifen 20mg daily
Ancillaries:
HCG (although im not sure how much I should be injecting):
keeping the testes active
maintaining testicular testosterone production
Telmisartan (again, not sure how much I should be taking):
In case of high blood pressure
Tamoxifen:
In case I need estrogen control, I will use SERMs to block estrogen receptors in certain tissues, id rather not use AI and prevent aromatization since that would defeat the purpose of HGH, some estrogen is required for bone strengthening.
Checkup every 4-6 weeks:
CBC
Lipid panel
CMP (liver + kidney markers)
Testosterone / estradiol
IGF-1
Fasting glucose / HbA1c
Blood pressure measurement
any advice?

12 week cycle is to short.
I’ve never done pct, but it doesn’t look right. You need clomid or something beside just Tamoxifen.
Those are not huge dose numbers, you shouldn’t need telmisartan.
Meister9is an 18 week cycle better then?
I followed the PCT guide from https://www.eroids.com/forums/steroids-qa/steroid-cycles/how-to-run-a-cycle
And it’s also a 15 year old post, it has good information but is also very updated
Meister9Yeah, I was aware but I couldn't find something similar to help me build my cycle
Guessing you’ve never taken telmisartan? I would suggest cutting the pills into 20mg chucks to check your response.
Meister9Nope, never taken it, I was just thinking in case I needed it
"In case I need estrogen control, I will use SERMs to block estrogen receptors in certain tissues, id rather not use AI and prevent aromatization since that would defeat the purpose of HGH, some estrogen is required for bone strengthening".
Is this shit real?
Meister9I dont see the issue, excessive estrogen suppression could negatively affect bone health, so maintaining normal estrogen levels is important, i think maintaining some normal estrogen signaling may be beneficial rather than strongly suppressing aromatization (AI)
but I may be wrong...
What I am telling you man is that you will still need an Ai. Yeah you want estrogen but you do not want it really high.
Meister9Alright I see what you're saying, should I start taking it regularly or should I wait to see if I need it and just have it on standby. Is there anything else wrong with my cycle?
Your cycle is fine I would do 16 weeks since it's just Test and HGH but see how your body does if you get sides, you can reduce the dosage.
As far as Ai goes, it all depends on how much you aromatase everyone is different. If you start to get some sore nipples or puffy nipples or get emotional, I would take .5mg of anastrozole. Once or twice a week is usually plenty.
Meister9Thanks for the help, I bumped it up to 18 weeks; for the HCG, should I do about 250IU 2x weekly?
HCG depends on how you respond. The first week or so you probably won't need it at all. Then yes try and see if 250iu 2x a week is good for you. If you still notice shrinkage or lack of libido then increase it to 3x a week. I personally do 300iu 2x a week and it works for me.
Meister9again, thank you for the help, my last question is:
are my checkups good? am I getting the right bloodwork? (the info is in the post)
Yes for the most part, but I would add a SHBG, LH and FSH. I also do a PSA once in a while and TSH.
Also the cbc should be a CBCAD to get the full scope.
