How do you know?

How do you know how different steroids effect you?
I'm pretty new to this and want to know how i react to the different steroids. I ran a test, deca cycle before and it went great, however i did experience side effects. I dont know which compound gave me what side effects, because they both kick in around week 5 or so. I want to try some steroids individually just to see how i react to them. But all of you are always preaching how test is a must. So my question is, How do you know how you react to different steroids?

This is why a test only cycle is usually recommended for your first, so you know what compound is responsible for each reaction. The only way to know how you react to individual compounds is to experiment with them and see.

For me, i hardly had any sides, but when i was experimenting, i found that certain drugs would make my blood pressure go up, some wouldn't, I would get acne on some, others i wouldn't. It is all trial and error. The trick it, to know how to spot the side effects and how to counteract them

Aboot said it. TEST-ONLY, FIRST. That is your baseline for everything else you ever do.

Start with test only for a first cycle and go from there. Make sure that every cycle you dont add more than 1 new compound or you wont be able to tell which compound is causing which effects.
