    question for mike, unless anyone else know's

    hey mike, I was wondering at what dose is overkill for deca in a test/deca cycle

    test/400mgs/week 1 - 8
    deca/??????/week 1 - 8

    I wasnt sure at what dose will deca help prevent DHT the most, and what dose is to much.

    just so others know, Im not talking about a usual cycle, the deca will be higher than usual to help fight DHT.

    ps: I told a friend of mine what you posted about deca and DHT prevention and he's extatic since he suffer's from MPB, though he know's its not a cure only prevention.

    thanks in advance!

    THERE IS NO EVEIDENCE THAT DECA --- A PROGESTIN-- INHIBITS DHT.... (really 5a reduction of test to dht).. Progesterone on the other hand does.. it is possible that deca might or possible that it may actually INCREASE conversion.

    Green tea has been shown to inhibit 5a reduction.. adequate zinc intake is also important.

    mike said (I think anyway) that slightly higher doses might do this

    400 should be fine and bump it up to 10 weeks.

    he stated scientific info regarding progesterone.. not progestins (which is what deca is)..

    btw- progesterone is a ebenfiical and necessary chemical and plays a big role in sex (which deca and fina have a tendency to KILL)

    hmm, but he said that 600 mgs a deca instead of 400 mgs may help prevent DHT.

    well this is interesting none the less

    Just do 400 test/deca , i've done that for a coupla years AND mpb runs in my family(on my moms side). I also take Saw Palmetto, which does help with retarding DHT production. It supposedly not effective with deca, be i have a pretty full head of hair and THATS good enough for me.

    ...yea sk*, i was running 400cyp for the first 8 weeks that was my very first cycle. And when i added the deca (400/week), my hair up front just thinned a little bit. I'm not saying your not going to lose ANY hair, but when i wash it i don't hundreds of hairs in the tub. 4 or 5 at the most! And outta my 3 brothers, 2 have the same hairline as Bruce Willis and 1 looks like Mr Clean!! They started losing their hair in their 20's, and i'am 39 now! I still get a haircut every 2-3 months(will provide dated reciept upon request, send sase to.....) With me at least the girls can pull my hair and not my ears.
