Deca (Progesterone) Gyno - What do you guys think?
I’ve been researching and tossing around ideas for my First cycle for a while now.
A Deca only seems very good to me for various reasons. For one, I’m likely to go bald eventually. My Mothers Father has a full head of hair but my Father and his Father are bald. In the last 3-4 months I have noticed a slight thinning of my hair. Nothing bad yet but you can see why I don’t want to jump on a Test cycle. This makes Deca seem like a very nice choice. Also I’m not hell bent on gaining 20lbs so a moderate gain of 10-15 would be fine.
Now to my main concern – Progesterone related Gyno from Deca. This is what I would like some feedback on. I know Deca is said to be fairly mild @ 400mg/wk. And I’ve been told gyno would be rare. Yet I see numerous posts of people complaining about gyno and deca all the time. Flipping a coin with bitch tits is not very comforting. How common do you really think it is? Also if I did start to see early signs of gyno could I effectively evade the bitch tit look (fatty tissue deposits) by stopping injections? I know Deca is a long lasting ester and would continue to stay in my system. With Test you can run ldex and get on Nolva if symptoms arise and stomp it out. But with Deca (considering you do get it) are you just fucked? There is little you can to effectively stop it. Would heading it off early enough be enough to evade it entirely? Has anyone here ever had what they thought was a gyno response from Deca/Progesterone?
This is starting to make Test/EQ or just Test a more appealing choice. I don’t want to lose my hair but I have a feeling eventually its going to happen anyway. The Full blown bitch tit look would be far worse.
