Short / Long Ester Cycle Length

[mesophyte]

I read in Austinite's thread "My First Cycle: Planning and Executing a Successful First Cycle":

Here is a perfect beginner cycle layout: Week 1 to 12: Testosterone enanthate

Short ester cycle should last 8 weeks.

So from that, it seems the recommendation is to go 8 weeks if on prop and 12 weeks if on enth.

I started my cycle on prop and after 3 and a half weeks I switched to enth. Now I'm not sure if I should still keep it to 8 weeks from the start or go for 12 weeks from the start.

Why did you switch esters ?

He had issues with the frequent pinning of prop. I'd say go with 12 weeks from original start.
