is this normal?

I finished my cycle 3 weeks ago, and gradually my balls are coming back to size, but they never sag anymore. Its like they are perma cold or something, even when taking a hot shower they don't sag like they use to. Also, the acne on my back has gotten much worse since coming off. Just wanted to know if this is normal or not. Thanks.

Did you start PCT yet?

**n0_Genetics** · 10-01-2003, 12:05 PM

my acne has only subsided 3 weeks after finishing my clomid pct, leaving a few holes here and there

Well your boys should be comming back around soon if your PCT is in order.

As far as the acne goes it is usualy the worst at the begining and the end of the cycle due to the change in hormone levels. Once your body recovers it should get better.

Clomid is a known culprit of acne. I will never use it again.

It's a matter of hormone imbalance, not the drug itself.

At the end of this one how can I prevent breaking out again? My guy says there is no way to fully prevent it but that clomid is what caused it. I am going with hcg this time but how do I keep/know my hormones are balanced? I have never had acne in my life but my third (also my heaviest of yet) cycle really messed me up. I am just now losing the scars/marks where they were. I do not want to go through that again. Thanks Pheedno.

I was running 1250mgs of enthanate (QV), 50mgs anadrol wks 1-4 (Unimed). I got really good gains but I couldn't show anyone. Took 3 months to start to have perfectly smooth skin again but the little brown marks are just now starting to fade.

Goes with the territory bro. At the end of a cycle, you have a dip in test, leaving estrogen elevated, and untill your testosterone stabilizes, the body is on a constant change in Test/Estro ratio.

I take three showers a day, and use retin-a cream post cycle and I still get some on my back and shoulders.

Accutane is probably the only sure-fire way

**DADDYDBOL** · 10-01-2003, 01:07 PM

Yeh thats what I thought. My guy is very strict about accutane and says that he would prefer to break out than take it, how bad would it be while on just injectables? I know its known not to put that much stress on your liver but I missed all summer because of this.

**DADDYDBOL** · 10-01-2003, 01:09 PM

Oh yeh, don't want to have to do liver panels ever 3 weeks, I did however have the clearest, most smooth skin of my life when this test kicked in. I didn't mean to steal this thread and thanks Pheedno for your help.
