+ 1 Test flu and low test levels .....

ad

I ran into some symptoms recently that had me unsure if it was just heat exhaustion or a newly introduced idea "test flu" . I was messaged back on a forum with an article and in the article everything was explained about what test flu is and a some possible remedies alongside hydration. My question ... I'm wondering bc I didn't get labs before my cycle I don't know if I had low test levels , could low test levels be the cause of test flu? If not what are some other causes ? Or is it just your body not being used to the aas?(test e in my case)

Here is the article just in case

Interesting info from the link. Do you think it's just heat exhaustion? If you could pull a CBC w/a diff and a CMP, you could tell pretty quick what was going on, even if labs were trending, you would have an idea.

Yeah your def right there but yeah I hydrated heavy and felt better quick so I think it was heat exhaustion . I'm 26 so low test causing test flu is more than unlikely but you never know I did a few prohormone cycles back wen they were legal so maybe they fucked up my test who knows . I screwed myself by jot getting labs . Next cycle I will for sure .

Bro, if you never have used steroids before, why would you be thinking you have low testosterone at age 26? The only young men on this board that start singing the "I have low test" song without any labs are those looking for an excuse to stay on a permanent cycle and not PCT. You're positioning yourself for that and I don't like it. It's nothing personal bro and you may have no thoughts of anything of the kind but no labs pre-cycle is a big red flag.

If it is truly your first cycle, then yes, your body is not used to AAS. Once, again, looking at your stats, however, suggests to me that you may have cycled before and that is the reason you are trying to find other explanations besides the test flu because secretly you know it's not that.

Sorry again to come down on you bro when you may be a completely straight up guy, but in recent times there are too many members here that are trying to manipulate the board into helping advise them and eventually they all get caught and they are finished as far as the community is concerned.

I hope you're an honest good guy bro.

Let me start off by saying I'm a very straight up guy . No bullshit fuck that. Most importantly in response to your post , I started this thread bc it was suggested to me in another one I started called ADVICE NEEDED... Check it out its at the bottom.
I understand where your coming from and I'm not mad. That's why I love this forum instead of meso. But listen man this is my first cycle . I'm asking questions that I read 200 times on forms and articles but this is it plain and simple .... Aas are no joke and I don't care how experienced you are with talking to ppl or reading , if it's your first cycle ... You gana be paranoid and question everything . Well if you actually give a shit.
Honestly this question is more geared from curiosity and bc it was suggested to me and I'm trying to make some loyal friends and this dude MEDDX gave me some great advice. I went on meso asking questions and every dude says go read read read we won't spoon feed you answers well listen that's why I'm asking so that's why I came here and ppl treat you with respect the majority of the time and like I said I get your response .no worries I have no problem clarifying . I should have been more descriptive with my purpose and who I am .
And about my stats . I came from div 1 ncaa swimming so my bf% is down , not as good as 6 years ago but that and I have great muscle memory. So I have been coming back in well. No where near where I want to be nor very impressive but that's why I'm here to learn and improve and change my areas where I made mistakes .
Also one last thing I do apologize like I said for nt wording my question well like I said it was suggested I post this question , which you can check out through my profile , so I did it quick, I'm at work and I wanted to get it out so I could get some responses by the time I got out.
Again no worries about your reaction . I'm just trying to show I want to be a member of this community . In my eyes you earn what you get .

Thanks for responding bro.

I am going to accept, then, that you are completely on the level.

But, having no baseline pre-cycle blood work is going to be problematic bro. We have no way of knowing now what your Test level was before the cycle. So after you PCT and get it rechecked, if it is not in the normal range for your age, we don't know if there was a problem with your PCT and you have not recovered or if in fact it was low to begin with.

In any case, if after all is said and done, if you do end up with Low T, that MUST be handled by a doctor, and NOT self prescribed or administered.

Welcome to Eroids.
