Not shut down PC - strange.

**Mike Dura** · 09-03-2007, 12:54 PM

I stopped a cycle without PCT and oddly, my balls have not shrunken, my moods are fine and I've been on pretty much all year in a kind of hormone replacement scheme. I did test E most of the year alternating between low dose between cycles and high dose (800mgs) on. For cutting I did 20 weeks of test prop with masterone at 100mgs EOD. Now I'm off and I don't have any symptoms of shut down or estrogen rebound at all. The gear was real as my strength and aggression were through the roof. How can this be explained? Weird.

how long since the last injection ?

**Mike Dura** · 09-03-2007, 01:01 PM

three weeks. I was on test prop and masterone prop last. I did take a 100mg shot of test E so maybe that's still hangin in there.

giv it 3 more weeks and things will not be fun at all. you still got super high levels of test in your body. go get some blood work and that will show you. please start some kind of pct.

Just out of curiosity, why wouldn't you do pct just to be safe?

**crazyhorse666** · 09-03-2007, 02:55 PM

the size of your balls dosent mean anything. not being mean but mine have never shrunk and I hav done some decent cycles. maby your goals are diffrent then mine but I wouldn't skip a pct if my life depended on it.

Curious too.

Also, how was your hrt experience? Recovery is going to be a lot harder since you've been cruising for almost a year.

I belive by his qustion that he looks at his balls and thinks wow they are still the same size I must not hav shut down. when the reality is that its only been three weeks and if he just came off of a cycle there is still a ton of test in his body flowing around and he still fells good. but as soon as them levels start to drop off he will start losing weight and get depressed (witch is my personal problem when levels fall and a bad one). I cant remmber the exact time but i think its right around 21 days that test E is active so like i said before theres still a ton of that stuff flowing around.(remmber that is only the half life)

maby Im wrong, maby im right, but there is no harm in doing pct. its worth its weight in gold to me.

Your new wife isn't going to appreciate a meatless diet, do a pct to avoid weeks of downtime.

After prop I start feel low test after two weeks (after one week slightly)
After enanthate takes 3-4wks to really feel low test.

You will be still on external test. Start PCT before full symtoms of low test occur.

Everyone's different and maybe your a genetic freak, but like everyone else is suggesting I would add the PCT BEFORE you find out you have to. Why chance it?
