Deca/Libido Help - Test/Deca cycle

ad

Hi,

I'm on my last 2 weeks of a deca/test cycle - (Pinning the test E for the last 2 weeks)
500 Test E
300 Deca
Aromasin 12.5 EOD (Sometimes every 3-4 days)

It was going perfectly until I stopped the deca about a week ago, libido has crashed.
Its not so much deca dick completely but its just a lack of interest in anything, I can still get an erection but it takes a little and harder to maintain.

I'm still on the test for another week but its very worrying that I stopped the deca and crashed while still on the test.

I had Prami on hand for any lactating or other issues caused by the way the body processes Deca but was told not to use it unless I had any signs as it makes you feel like complete shit. Had no gyno/lactating or ANY erection issues at all until now.

Can anyone please help me with what to do? Should I start the Prami or continue the Test/2 week gap and then my PCT of:
Nolvadex
Clomid

I know i'll probably cop some flaming for 'not researching' but I thought I had it all covered, I expected there might be deca sides and libido issues but not once I stopped the Deca and STILL pinning test.

Thanks in advanced.

How about just getting some blood work? Quit playing the guessing game get bloods and you will know exactly what's wrong. Im willing to bet it's high estrogen, estro builds up with time.

Doesn't make a lot of sense, everything was good while on the deca without using prami when you should have been experiencing the problems you're describing, then you drop the deca and keep the test and you lose you sex drive and slight Ed issues. Honestly, I have two theory's, your deca was test and you were actually running 800mg of test and the 12.5mg of aromasin was keeping estrogen at a point where you could maintain normal sexual function, then when you dropped the "deca" (what I suspect to be test) so you went from 800mg of test to 500, 12.5mg of aromasin was to much for and crashed your estrogen. Not to mention the bottle that said test on it might have been underdosed so maybe you dropped down to 300mgs ew and that much aromasin will most likely crash your estrogen. Thats theory one and the fact of the matter is with many ugls most of the different compounds are just test, they just label them eq, deca etc.

Second would be just you body reacting to the drop in hormones, but it doesn't make any sense really if it was in fact deca blood levels are just slowly declining so there isn't any up and down fluctuation. So in this case I would expect your sex drive to increase.

Any other symptoms? Achey joints, you already mentioned a few that are inline with low e2 ( loss of interest, harder to get erection and hard to maintain) feel lethargic, dry skin and lips etc?

I think the best thing to do is get bloodwork and see where your test levels are at as well as prolactin and estrogen. Maybe you're gesr was legit and your body's just reacting in an odd way right now. Steroids sre weird man you can keep everything the same for the entire cycle and then out of the blue sex drive crashes, or you get Ed problems, or you start breaking out really bad etc. sides just pop up out of nowhere for no apparent reason.

Perfect answer thank you

Honestly it could be reason one, it would honestly make sense seeing as I had no deca sides and didn't really make any more gains than my last 2 test cycles.

No achy joints but I feel so lethargic, dry skin, lips not too bad but now you mention it a bit.

I was just worried because I expected all the sides of Deca but got nothing, now when I'm off Deca (I know it lasts awhile) I get what I was worried was Deca dick which I could be wrong as I've never had it.

I'm in Aus and bloods can be a little annoying to get, depends on the doc but i'm going to try and get some done ASAP.

I could be wrong but i'm fairly sure its different in Australia.
I don't even have private insurance here as the government covers it.

Most forums for Australians say its doctor/patient confidentiality and just say to get a full blood work done by complaining about being lethargic etc. and then view the results yourself.

yeah, just go see your gp, tell him you have been juicing and need bloods- you cant get in any trouble, its all good, they wont prescribe you anything except hcg, but atleast you will know what the go is, you should of used your prami.
