    when am I supposed to start losing muscle and libido?

    I ran a 12 week cycle of test e at 500mg per week. I'm currently 3 1/2 weeks into pct (nolva 40/40/20/20 and comid 100/100/50/50). I started pct 14 days after final injection.

    So far my weight and strength are the same as when I ended and my libido is just as good. When should I expect these things to slowly decrease?

    its a good thing your libido is still strong. i personally dont have the problem either. my libido may not be as high as when im on cycle but it never really suffers in my pct either.

    some have the problem, some dont

    i personally lose a little size and strength after my pct, but its attributed to a lot of things...takin a break, diet, etc

    everyone is different bro, just keep up the hard work

    I have no idea man since I never run a cycle like yours but I believe, from having read others' experiences, you might be one of the lucky ones...

    Oh, any blood work before and after?

    personally i lost libido 2 weeks into PCT after the same cycle u ran

    if u still have ur libido then i think ur probabably not ging to have the issue since by now ur HPTA should be recovering and the ethanthate should almost be clear of your system

    That would be nice to know that I am one of the lucky ones if true. I didn't get any sides at all on cycle either except maybe an occasional pimple here and there. The cycle in itself, however, I would consider just average. I gained 22 pounds but I increased my diet by 1100 calories so I expected more. I started the cycle really ripped and ended still lean but not as viciously ripped

    I did not get bloodwork by the way

    i started loosing some strength late week 2, early week 3, my strength returned once i finished PCT

    however i also made strength gains on PCT also,

    i really dpeends on just hwo strong u are

    if ur onlt benching 250 for 6 reps then your most likely to keep that strength since thats maintainable naturally

    if ur benching 405 for 4 reps then u most likely will loose strength since thats proaberly not something many natural people can maintain

    as for size i lost all my water weight and bloat within the first week

    muscle mass i didnt really loose much, lost a little off my arms but alwise kept everything else

    everyone is different

    cool thanks or sharing that. I seem to have almost the same experience as you so far with week 3 of pct ending. I feel like I lost some bloat and water weight but my actual weight has stayed exactly the same. My arms appear to have gotten a tad smaller though.

    Anyone else care to share their experience?

    What are the odds your gear was bunk or underdosed?

    I've had times I put on solid weight on a cycle and never lost any, or lost my sex drive after.

    I've also had the same thing, with the same gear from different suppliers that afterward I don't see the point in banging the old lady for awhile.

    2 cycles ago, 250mgs test/400mgs EQ and tbol for 8 weeks and my sex drive crashed, put on, like you about 20lbs and kept about 15 of it.

    Last cycle, 12 weeks of 750mgs Test Prop, 750 mgs of Mast Prop and tbol daily at 80mgs and I think it was really underdosed with exception of the tbol which was ran only 6 weeks. Its been a month, no size lost, no sex drive lost and put on about 9lbs all of which remains. It was however enough to cause my shoulders to break out, but that does not take much for me to do at all.....i'm extreamly prone to shoulder acne on test.

    I would say the odds are pretty low that my gear was bunk or underdosed. All signs point to it being legit

    Thanks for posting that though, very interesting stuff
