    Anybody Seen my LIbido Anywhere?

    Hey Bruddas,
    I got a postcard from my Libido the other day -three weeks into my cycle (300mg T En+400mg EQ/week) it skipped town and is now vacationing on Pluto somewhere.
    Anybody know why that happened? I wanted to do a mild cycle for my first time, but could it be that 300mg/week of T Enanthate is too little and that's the problem? Or do I need to give it more time to kick in?
    If this keeps up I'll be joining a monastery any day now. (Let's see... Franciscan or Buddhist?) I just hope they have computer access!
    Thanks!!

    you must be ultra sensitive to the sides of eq bro.

    eq is so mild, that to be honest, i dont hear much of this side from this particular aas. i agree with vette.......up the test to 500 and see what happens.
    i'd also keep this in mind if you ever decide to run deca ..........

    Thanks bros for the advice.
    I already pushed it up last shot to 400mg/week so we'll see. I'll bum it up some more then. I assume it takes a few weeks for the increased dose to take effect? (If ever?)
    Anybody else have this problem or is it just me? It's not that I have a limp bizkit or anything I've just kinda lost interest, which has never happened before. I'm a bit less horny than normal, which seems odd.

    It's the eq Bro it happened to me up your test. If your on HRT I don't think running anything higher then the test is a good idea. Since our test is already low having another AAS being the dominate one isn't a good idea. No scientific proof, just a theory of mine

    Thanks JohnnyB. I'm not on HRT and my test levels are okay normally.

    Lots of people said the test should be at least equal to the EQ, though there sure are a lot of different opinions about it. I have one buddy who did great on 400mg of EQ/week only with no test, which was my original plan. But everyone advised me to add test so I went with a moderate amount.

    I'll be bumping it up to at least 400mg/wk then. I'm really not in bad shape but it's weird that I'm feeling kinda subpar in that department even though I've been on at least 300mg/wk for about 2 1/2 weeks now.

    I'll let you know how it goes.

    Hey if you see mine there have it send me a postcard too. Mine's been gone for about three weeks. I'm in my second week of Clomid, and I have been an emotional bitch.

    Geez, I can't wait.

    Well, I upped the QVE to 500mg/wk the third week and did 400mg/wk for the following two -result? Bupkes.

    So many other people have complained about that batch it's gotta be way underdosed, and I've posted another thread about it. Still hear from disappointed bros about it.

    My source is gonna send some Prop and I've upped the QVE to 750mg/wk in the meantime, which I'd be willing to be is actually more like 400mg if it had been dosed as the label says.

    Watch out for that batch # QVE007 bros!!

    !!!

    Everyone told him to bump up his dose before even asking about his diet--I'm surprised.

    johnsomebody,

    What does your diet look like? How many calories are you consuming? How often are you working out (are you doing a lot of cardio)? Testosterone (at any dose) will shut your natural test production down without the benefits of increased libido IF you are not eating enough calories and protein, OR if you're overtraining OR if you are stressed out.

    Testosterone does not boost everone's libido (contrary to popular belief). Some people, although few, will experience a drop in libido when injecting testosterone. Some people experience a boost and then a drop in libido from testosterone (at high and low doses). If you doubt what I'm saying, have a conversation with a urologist or an HRT specialist (HRT = Hormone Replacement Therapy); they will tell you what I just told you.

    BAD VS. GOOD RESULTS FROM STEROIDS IS NOT ALWAYS A FUNCTION OF DOSE. MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, A PERSON'S NUTRITION IS TO BLAME FOR DISAPOINTING RESULTS (IN THIS CASE DISAPOINTING LIBIDO).

    Hi Bask8kace, thanks for posting.

    Well, my diet's pretty clean. I'm getting 1.5gr protein per lb, about 3000 cal/day min. I have gained lbm on this cycle so far, though I haven't weighed myself yet. It really didn't kick in til week 5 and I'm just starting week 7 of 12, so there's still plenty of room to grow.

    I know the libido thing is variable with people and at first I may have been overtrained for week three or so. I really became suspicious when I recuped from all my overtraining symptoms but the libido thing still didn't perk up.

    I posted a thread that goes into my suspicions about that batch of QVE in more detail (http://anabolicreview.com/vbulletin/...threadid=54819) but I just bumped this one up in case anyone was interested. A LOT of people are having poor results or none at all with that batch without upping to to 750mg or over (and the MassMonsterz thread complains of no results from 750mg/wk!) . I was really reluctant to raise the dose myself because I really was trying to keep this low dose, especially since it's my first cycle. But I really suspect the stuff is about 1/2 or less the dosage on the label for that batch. It's not just the libido thing, a lot of people have reported no gains at all, once the Dianabol wore off, for the rest of their cycle. But you can check the thread for more info.

    Sometime I'd like to do a 500mg/wk of T only like you did, except I'm just gonna be sure to get the real thing next time.

    Johnsomebody,

    It sounds like your research paid off. It probably is a bad batch since you've found so many people posting complaints about it.

    I think you'll like the testosterone -only cycle when you get the real thing. You just have to make sure you take care of your body post cycle else you'll easily loose the lbs you gained. When I did my test-only cycle, I used 250-300mg per week (I'm not up to the level of 500mg per week yet). My next test cycle will be with deca or EQ.

    I hope your source replaces the testosterone for you.

    Best of luck with the rest of your cycle!

    If only!

    I've been about as jacked as Sister Wendy, though a week of HCG helped a lot.
