Feeling really good after cycle, but before starting PCT. Any downside to PCT???
finished my 10 week test e 600mg a week cycle 2 weeks ago tomorrow. i used hcg at 300iu 2x a week throughout my cycle and have done 300iu EOD the past two weeks.
i read about how im supposed to feel terrible, no libido etc, but heres the thing, i feel pretty much fine. granted im not like a rabid rapist gorilla like i was on cycle, but i still have the urge, morning wood, and have good strength at the gym. I plan to run a standard nolva/clomid 40/50 and taper down PCT but my question is
Are there any negatives to running a PCT? i feel that i always wanna air on the side of caution, but im just wondering if you can do harm if you didnt really need it and you did it anyway.
On a side note, i stopped methadone replacement therapy last week, opiates are known to decrease test, and cessation is known to cause test levels to rise, so that may also have something to do with it.
any thoughts are appreciated.

jasonhCongrads on stopping the methadone its a bitch to get off most people never do (im one of the lucky ones 5years know can be done)good luck!
Congrats on your therapy. Well, the first thing about pct is, its not an exact science and everyone responds differnently. In most people, negative sides from pct, namely clomid, are more pronounced than from the steroids. If you can get through a month of pct, it will restart your testicular axis faster and you are way more likely to keep most of your gains. The hCG is the most important IMO, however you can build a tolerance to it. Aromasin is showing a lot of promise in recent years experience as a great pct anti-e. Nolva can be a better substitute to clomid. Proviron is a great help wilthwell being,libido, and has some anti-e properties. Good luck!
i plan to run clomid and nolva for 3 and 4 weeks respectively. i used adex on cycle for e control, but will def try aromasin next time after all that i have read.
what i dont understand is guys using aromasin for pct. i thought that you wanted estro so AI's were not reccommended and thats why u use SERMS....
if you been off for 2 weeks, for the last 4 days test e has cleared your system due to it's 10 days life ester. so it looks like hcg has worked for u brother !!
i def think the hcg helped a lot as my balls have been thick solid tight all throughout and esp now.
thanks
thanks for the responses. asi mentioned i will run it either way i was just curious.
Man I felt fine after my last 15 week cycle even 2 weeks after. the 1 week into PCt is when I started to feel lethargic and irritable. I'm not saying that is going to happen to you, but at 2 weeks you still havent fully cleared your system. I only ran nolva for 4 weeks. and Its been about 4 weeks from pct and I'm just now starting to feel like myself. I plan in the future to take pct very serious and cover as many angles as possible. Nolva, Clomid and Aromasin.
Test e probably hasnt fully even left your system. It takes about two weeks to get to a level where it doesnt interfere with PCT. Now is the time when your feelings are starting to go downhill. Start the PCT and wait a few weeks after it. Thats when it hits me the most.
No1Do PCT if you wanna keep your gains
i plan on it. thanks.
