FCV pretty well hooked you up NO CLOMID ON CYCLE. Adex or aromasin on cycle eod at half tab is fine , however, virtually everyone is going to have sore nips on first test cycle, does not mean you are gyno prone. I can have sore nips on rare occassion still and have never had gyno even in running some very big stacks. To take the AI to stop the soreness or drop water is fine but it is kind of nice to know if you are prone to gyno so I always think one should push it a bit off and on to get a feel for your own bodies responses. Thats just my opinion but for me I ran some cycles early on with very sore nips and no AI to see if there was change or lumps simply for my own peace of mind in running even bigger and harsher cycles. Now knowing I will not get gyno under any circumstance is a plus to me in my own mind if nothing else. So here is "my personal suggestion on "gyno scare". If you had a tight chest through your youth, never had chest fat and especially chest fat around the nipple and you have never had a chest fat issue since, then I think one pushes it a bit allowing the nips to be sore for some time to learn your body as it relates to gyno. I had one individual way back come back to me and say I took your advice and got gyno! So I said "have you ever had any chest fat or had a hard chest all your life"? He said "very little" chest fat when I was a kid. I said then you didn't take my advice at all, you took my advice that applied to someone I described it to apply to and applied it to someone I said it did not apply to. You pretended to be someone else and you are not someone else you are you! Lol my point is, gyno is something half of the teenage population currently has as a result of poor diet and sedentary lifestyle with video games so if you were to walk in a PE locker room today you would see a huge percentage of the youth boys with puffy nipples and fat around the chest area due to lifestyle. This is in puberty when conversion is occuring and they have actually grown some female brest tissue. That tissue will normally be fine for many years until their natural test depreciates at which time there will be more estrogen in competition and a higher degree of sex hormone binding globulan robbing test and the female brest tissue will begin to grow into "man boobs" as you often see on the beach with 40+ yr olds that have a depletion in naty test. So thats a long story I give on rare occassion but again, it is good to know your body and your velnerabilities and why those vulnerabilities are present in the first place, point being, learn your body. Ok so IMo opinion your pct is clomid and nolva for best and quikest possible recovery to good natty so you can retain your hard work. This clomid 100/100/50/50 and nolva 40/40/20/20. Hcg is fine and its still a huge debate and thats good, my advice on it is usually twice per week if you wish to use it @ 250 per and twice per wek in the final two weeks of cycle at 500 per. As you leave cycle begin to lift heavy in the gym with less reps and get out quicker so we don't burn up all of our hard work while the body is shut down. Eat big and maybe even bigger through pct nice and lean but heavy on meat and in fact, always do that, you can't keep weight with a diet that is different than the one you gained it with....period. you can check natty levels through bloods 8 weeks after last pin and should be fully recovered by then. I know you "think" you have diet figured out and may have, but I would say do heavy researcbh there and I would ven do a forum post with your diet so we can critique it for you and make sure you have the right diet for your goal. Diet is the whole damn deal in building and if 90% of your work is not there then you fail over and over until you get it right. I put a little time into this for you because you are someone actually researching and working and seem willing to listen. Use the help and get this diet post up to make sure you get this right brother.
