is 21 days too long before starting pct

[corsa5000]

alright bros basically i want to start my cycle today but have found out that the end of the cycle co insides with my up coming holiday. basically if i start today it will be exactly 21 days after the last shot for starting pct. i will only be doing a 500 test enan e/w cycle so i am thinking 21 days might be a safe amount of time before starting pct as it is a long esther.

Basically i want to know the reasons for not starting pct 21 days after last shot- if there is one of course.

2 weeks is when you should start after last Test E shot.

[corsa5000]

i have been told 18 days before. there is no set time for this is there? in your opinion would you suggest that problems could arrise waiting for 21 days?

[bjohnson1968]

14 days for enth 18 days for cyp

[redz]

Definitely 14 days bro.

[corsa5000]

oh ok bro's thanks for the info. will just wait a week before starting cycle

[dec11]

14 days for enth 18 days for cyp

not true, cyp is basically the same length, sust is 18-21 days

[RANA]

14 Days after your last injection

[bjohnson1968]

I have asked this to numerous ves and still get conflicting info as to whether cyp is 14 or 18 days and have been told 18 days so which is correct

Thanks
Peace

IMO a difference of 2-3 days insnt gonna be detrimental. General consensus in 14 days for Enanthate ester.

but better to start a few days early, then a few days late... at least thats how i look at it.

There should never be a given number of days set in stone for this.

The days between your last shot and you begining your PCT will depend on

1) The AAS
2) The dosage
3) The lenght of time

Let look at examples.

look at http://www.roidcalc.com/
(500mg done all at once on the first monday of the week, uncheck view active, we want to know how much in lingering in the depots)
500 mg EW of test enant on a 8 week cycle...
At the begining of week 11 you have 42mg left over, that is low enough to start.


1500mg EW 8 week also...
At the begining of week 12 you have 47mg left over, that is low enough to start.


Ofcourse if you were using Deca at high dosages it would be week 13.

Also as I menioned the lenght of time for the cycle. A 4 week cycle for example will have much less depot build ups than a 12 week.

I agree^

OP, There are many factors in calculating pct start time (as above) but the general rule to follow would be 14 days after the last shot of Test E, a couple of days either side isn't going to make that much of a dramatic effect, so your good to go with 14 days after your last shot.
