First Cycle Concerns - HPTA shutdown!

[rockport]

Ok, some background. I’m 30yrs old, 6,1 & weigh 192lbs. I’ve been training serious now for 6yrs and consider myself currently to be in fairly good shape (as modest as that sounds lol) however I have just collected my ingredients for my first cycle which in breif looks like this.

Week 1 – 12 Sustanon 250 (125mg/EOD)
Week14-16 Clomid and Nova

As mentioned this is my first cycle, and im shitting myself in knowing I’ll be going into shutdown in the next few weeks time. As with all newbie’s like myself even with PCT in hand im worried about damaging my HPTA and not “fully” recovering. I know the odds are slim and AAS have kind’a proven themselves over the years etc.. But I guess I need to assume that there is a high chance that my testosterone may not fully recover to the current level its at now.

Any reassurances or experiences people would care to share in dealing with recovery, maybe people who have had supported blood work pre and post cycles? Just to give me an indication of how far of the mark I should be once fully recovered?

Thanks for any help..

For ur best shot at recovery you want to run HCG while on cycle

Look into Swifto's Q and A thread in the PCT section for the best shot at recovery

Its not a complicated process. Get blood work before your cycle, then after your pct.

Then get blood work AGAIN before your next cycle (if you do indeed have another one) to be 100% sure you fully recovered .

Also running 125 eod you want to atleast hit 500mg/wk with any baseline test IMHO and i ran sus 250 750/Wk and used nova and clomid afterwards and recovered perfectly fine but better safe than sorry .
