Liver Support with Dbol?
Hi. This is my first post here, although I've been reading this forum for about a year - great info! So I am doing my first cycle & I have a question about liver support & Dbol . I'm 40 years old & pretty fit @ around 13% body fat. I am doing a 12 week cycle of Test-e @ 500mg/wk with Dbol @20mg ED during weeks 1-4 to kick start the cycle. My PCT is all set & I have all my gear.
So here is my question: Should I take some type of liver support supplement while taking the Dbol, or after taking it? SOmething like Milk Thistle or Liver Juice from Primordial Performance (I've read good things about it). Is there any benefit to doing this? I searched the forum & couldn't find any threads about this. So any guidance from those more knowledgable than me would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. Are you taking the milk thistle while you're taking the Dbol or are you waiting until after the 4 weeks of Dbol? I don't know if I should take it during or after? Thanks! Good luck with your cycle!

No, don't take liver support during your cycle. Only afterwards. If you increase your liver function during a cycle while taking orals, it will have an effect of trying to cancel out the oral. You want the oral to work its full potential, the liver is basically trying to destroy it. Which is why all orals are 17 alpha-alkylated, to stop the actual steroid from being destroyed on its first pass through the liver. When the liver deals with that, it takes strain but liver function returns to normal after you stop with it. So if you experience pain in your lower back, it might be from taking strain but otherwise you shouldn't need liver support. Just check your eyes every morning. If they are looking yellowish it's a sign your liver is taking strain, so stop with the orals. By the way I've been admitted to the ER for this exact thing! And when they did my bloodwork they found that my liver was under so much strain it was offloading to the kidneys, but I took a lot more than you for a lot longer.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll start the milk thistle with the dbol & tblhen continue it for a week or so after I've stopped the dbol. Better safe than sorry! Thanks!

i always thought with dbol everyone pretty much runs liver protection while on..... anyone else?????

I run NAC and milk thistle when theres any orals involved, can never be too safe imo. I've never been sure how well milk thistle actually works, but like I said it has to be better than nothing.

Recommended liver supplements on cycle
Milk thistle is a general liver health supplement. NAC seems to be even more important in helping against liver detoxification and healing. Keep in mind that liver supplements (in theory) should reduce the potency of your steroids. Many bodybuilders for this reason do not take them during their cycle. I think its a good idea to use low doses of NAC and milk thistle even while on cycle. Frequent steroid users should use liver health supplements everyday year around. Here is a list of all the liver health sup......
EVEN PROHORMONES

Secondly, you should be taking supplements to protect your liver and improve liver function. At the very least these should be taken 4 weeks prior to beginning any oral methylated supplement as well as during the entire cycle. At best you should be taking these liver protectants year roundLast edited by Chuck_R; 04-02-2011 at 09:57 PM.

I'm on a similar cyclet and am fairly new to this site. I'm running 500 mg test cyp wk 1-10 with dbol as the kick start. However I have read a lot about taking liver support if your running a high dosage of oral for an extended amount of time. Probably be fine without it, butI would say up your dosage to atlEast 30 mg of dbol. I'm hitting my 3Rd week now 6 lbs heavier. Good stuff. Also of anyone has an opinion on running 2 oral at a time please share. I have Winn on hand and was gonna run it 2 weeks after I stopped dbol up to week 12 where I would stsrt pct. Which is also 2 weeks.after last injection.

I agree with this guy. Anything is better than nothing but IMO I'd play it safe. Only have one liver
