If var doesn't shut me down that bad, will test?

**vaders4** · 01-27-2010, 05:44 PM

before I even elaborate let me just say this:

I know var shuts you down, I know test will DEF shut you down.

I'm currently on var, and while my libido is lower - it's honestly not that bad at all, I was expecting WAY worse.

The only thing I really notice is the urge to have sex/masturbate is about 75% of what it was.

If I do not get shut down that bad on var, is this any indication of how I may react to test as far as sides?

We all know that some people bounce right back from a small cycle (12wks @ 500mg a wk) and others don't.

Just curious if there is any relationship between the two.

Thanks!

Completely different compounds. Var has been prescribed to children. Test will definitely shut you down.

Test will shut you down.

I know that, and I wasn't debating IF it will.

I apologize for wording the question poorly, now that I look at it I should have said will I RECOVER well from test is var isn't really shutting me down.

In april I will start my 12wk 500mg cycle of test-c.

Hairloss I can live with, acne will go away, possibly not having a sex drive for a few months is the only part that worries me

Trying to really weigh the pros/cons here..

If you're that worried about sides, don't cycle AAS.

I think that's the worst advice I've ever heard.

Who here ISN'T worried about sides? If people weren't worried about sides, why would we know so much about preventing gyno, proper pct? HCG administration?

You can not compare var with test in anyway shape or form and var does not shut most people down that bad with short cycles. Having said that, Test will absolutely shut you down but if you are responsible and do a good PCT with clomid nolvadex and hcg you should be able to recover easy enough.....

Are you running oxandrolone alone?

Why did you not take into account Mesterolone?

if your main worry is low libido. That definetly isnt gonna happen if your taking Test. Test will eventually make you horny as ****. Depending on what type of ester you take.

That I know, I'm worried about the libido after I stop taking the test

You're obviously very worried about libido problems and they do happen. If it's such a concern, don't cycle.

Thats why you do a pct. To get your libido back.
Its much easier to recover from var cycle than a test cycle if thats your question

**sigman roid** · 01-28-2010, 07:41 AM

As chuck has said you would find it easier to recover from a var cycle than a test cycle that being said its still dependent on the pct you do and the individuals reaction to different compounds

test shut me down pretty hard. I need to take ciali every time before I am about to have sex now while I wait for my natty test levels to increase

Do you do a proper PCT and run HCG while on cycle?

how long does your natty test take to kick in and your sex drive is 100% normal?

Good simple way to put it in laymans terms.

**Hazard** · 01-28-2010, 01:37 PM

If you take proper precautions...... you shouldn't have too many problems.

Run HCG durring cycle..... and have a good pct lined up. Keep cialis on hand as a precaution.....

thats about all one can do to "prepare" so sexual side effects......

**marcus300** · 01-29-2010, 12:48 AM

There isn't a 100% correct answer to your question, we are all individuals and some of us find it hard to recover full function of their HPTA every again, some dont have a problem but trying to judge yourself off a var cycle isn't the best way forward..

How old are you?
