You are playing with fire in a dynamite factory running a cycle for that length of time.

1st thing I would suggest is to limit your cycles to 16wks max. In real danger of frying your HPTA when staying on longer. Otherwise all you can do is maybe stretch your PCT out to 6wks and hope for the best.

Time on + PCT = time off. Then follow up with bloodwork to confirm if you have recovered.

I would opt for pharma ancilliaries but If you are confident in your source the combo should work. I am not a fan on running an ai during PCT though. It may be fine for the first couple of weeks but I wouldn't be running the asin for the full course of the PCT so pick up some pharma Nolva/clomid for the last month or so of your PCT and run that without the ai. You may want to include a blast of HCG prior to starting your PCT. A lot more people are more knowledgable about HCG than I am but if on for that long I would seriously consider it.

I've always enjoyed the standard 16 week cycle. But it also depends on what you are referring to being on (test, tren, dbol etc). Most of those you'd never want to go that long on except test obviously. If your cycle is an Enanthate or Cypionate base, then imo you're not really even beginning to see results until weeks 5-8, so that's why I say 16 weeks. If you're on Prop, than that's a different story since it's much faster acting. Just be careful with anything over 16 weeks as you're putting your body in a bad predicament for being able to recover fully. I'd recommend using HCG during cycle to prevent Atrophy and possibly end of cycle before starting your pct with Nolva and Clomid.

I'm of the opinion that anything over 12 weeks is too long of a cycle. Especially if you want to save your nuts. I keep my cycles to a max of 12 weeks and have been able to consistently get my test levels back up to the 750 to 800 + range.
I had a scare a few months back, hadn't been on cycle for a while, ran bloods and test levels were in the 400's long after a pct and a post cycle blood test showing 750+. Scared me a bit. I took another test last month and back up into the 750+ range. The only explanation for the 400s was opiod use one week prior to the test. At least that's my thoughts. At any rate, don't be a dumbass and run long cycles. You only get one set of balls and unless you are making a living off of your size....It's not worth running it long.
Be smart.

Cycle history first and foremost. Secondly unless you're already on TRT (which I doubt you are since you're asking about a pct) do not run anything longer than 4 months and I only say that because if you're not running eq for 16 weeks it's kinda a waste of time. You're going to get shut down hard. Don't do it.

It's not going to get better if you stay on. You'll only do more damage. Do what you wish but imo I'd say look to start a pct very soon.
