    Test and BP

    As far as I know test have to do with RAAS stimulation (renin angiotensin aldosterone system) my question is does test have any influence on blood vessels wether if it's constriction or dilation?
    Second does it has a significant effect on BP before and after the use?
    Helps appreciated.

    I don't know about the blood vessel dilation/constriction but my blood pressure's perfectly normal during cycle.

    Yes, test increases renal sodium reabsorption, increased fluid retention from estrogen, and often increases resting cardiac output. It doesn't directly cause vasoconstriction to my knowledge.
    So yes, it increases your blood pressure while using it.

    Thanks for replys,
    I'm curious about estrogen fluid retention part, does estrogen causes that fluid retention in the circulating blood or does it only increases the cells water retention?

    Cell and plasma volume are increased during estradiol administration. Also higher red blood cell count can increase BP as a result of AAS use.
