Gyno and Recycling?

[hansgrouber]

Hey guys, I would really appreciate some input on this one...

Stats:
6'2
197lbs
12% BF
1st Cycle: 6 weeks Test Cyp.

Did a half-ass first cycle not knowing anything with a poor mentor who told me everything would be fine. Got great results but itchy nips 5 weeks in. tapered down thru week 6 and got on letro and tamox from ar as soon as I could. believe I definitely developed some mild gyno in my right pec. (lump still there but smaller and pec went down some...) Right pec looks slightly rounder and fuller. No one has noticed it except for me and when I ask certain people to really look at it they either acknowledge that its very miniscule or tell me I'm crazy.

Was considering doing another cycle with Test Cyp. including an AI like tamox with a weeks worth of prep and continuing through the cycle. I was thinking two shots per week of 200mg totaling 400. Not a little but not a lot is my theory...

If I take tamox properly with letro on board incase I need it, do you think I can cycle without exacerbating my current gyno? I can get away with what I have now but the last thing I want to do is have one huge gyno pec and one normal w/o symptoms... Lump is slightly less than pea size and right pec seems to have more feelable tissue.

The question is, I guess, do you think its a relatively safe bet to have gyno and take all the preventative measures to not upset it and generate more tissue on a second cycle? Can't find a thread tackling this issue. Depending on what is said, if I can recycle, I plan on getting down to atleast 10% bf before second cycle...

Thanks Guys!

Well, nolva isn't an AI, it's a SERM.

To answer your question, though, if you cycle, you can definitely expect your gyno to be aggravated.

If I were you, and were really set on cycling, I would use an AI (probably aromasin at 10mg/ED initially) from the get go, and stick with a short estered test like prop.

By aggravate, to what extent do you mean? What about pre-loading with a stream of letro before week one and then carrying through the entire cycle. I understand this may hinder gains but I would surely still see results, no? Then follow up with nolva and clomid for a 30 day pct after a 8 - 12 week cycle... Anyone have any light they could shed?

if your looking for something to run before and during your cycle, run some aromasin , that should help keep gyno problems away.
