First Cycle - PCT Evaluation needed

[19seanbhoy67]

Hey guys,

Decided against using HCG during my cycle and have settled on 2 x 250mg p/w Test-E only for 10 weeks.

First question, do you guys think it would be beneficial to add another 2 weeks at 1 x 250mg to taper off at the end? Or would it help to just make it a 12 week cycle of 500mg per week?

Secondly, struggling with my PCT. I had first decided on a 3-week Nolva course with doses of 100mg first day then 60mg p/d for ten days, then 40mg p/d the final 10 days. I would start this 3 weeks after my final injection.

However, I have been reading a lot of different info and am now unsure whether my PCT should start 2 weeks after my last injection (a week earlier than I had planned). Could anyone shed any light on this? Also, I have heard a lot of different stories of 3 week and 4 week PCT cycles. I had originally settled on 3 weeks but do you think this will be enough or should I go for 4?

Thirdly, I am starting to be swayed into also using Clomid for my PCT as well as Nolva, just to cover all bases. My PCT would then go as follows:

Day 1: Clomid 250mg, Nolva 60mg
Following 10 days: Clomid 100mg, Nolva 40mg
Final 10 days: Clomid 50mg, Nolva 20mg

Any advice would be appreciated as to how appropriate these PCT plans are, and also which one anyone would be more beneficial (Nolva itself or Clomid and Nolva combo)

Thanks for your time and help,

Sean.

Been training with free weights for about 5 years now and have been researching taking steroids since I felt I had reached a plateau with my gains around 6 months ago.

Thanks again,

No need to taper doses of test. Either decide on 10 or 12 weeks. I would lean towards12 with a long ester. I would definately add clomid to pct but your dose is ridiculous. This is the standard pct many follow.
100/50/50/50 clomid
40/20/20/20 nolvadex
more is not always better with these things. Good luck

Thanks for your help spartan!

So you would prefer a 4-week PCT course as opposed to 3? And there is no need to take an elevated dose of the Clomid and Nolva on the first day of PCT?

Also, what about the time between last injection and PCT, would you suggest 2 weeks or 3 weeks when using Test-E only?

Thanks again,

Sean.

Test e wait 14 days from last dose to pct start. No need to elevate dose for first day. I would stick with 4 weeks as a baseline of how you recover from a cycle. This will help you with understanding how you recover with subsequent cycles.
