    Thumbs down Blood work proves gear was bunk

    So, after modest gains 9 weeks into my test e 500mg/wk cycle, I got some blood work with these results:

    Testosterone 346 Normal range: 249-836
    FSH 5.7 Normal range: 1.5-12.4
    LH 4.9 Normal range: 1.7-8.6
    Estradiol 12.2 Normal range: 7.6-42.6

    Safe to say I won't be needing PCT, right??

    Id say wait a month after last shot then return and do another test. Id also say either your gear is severely underdosed or those figures are just your natural test levels. No sense in doing a pct until you confirm that test levels drop after 4 weeks out of cycle...imo anyhow. I think its bunk...seems like bunk gear is everywhere now these days!

    My source was online and the gear I got looked soooo real. I even posted pics of it on this forum and had a couple people chime in saying it's real. I wish I could air my source out but I dont think forum rules would allow me to go on a smear campaign against them, haha. Anyway, I'm definitely not gonna do pct. I'm glad I hadn't started hcg . I did start arimidex during the cycle and dropped my libido for a few days probably because I was suppressing my natural estrogen w/o any extra test on board!! LOL. That resolved after I stopped the arimidex though. Lesson learned. Thanks fellas. Peace.

    It was my first cycle and didn't know exactly what to expect. I kept a log on this forum and kept posting that I wasn't getting the results I've heard i should get but everyone was saying I have to be patient and that I'm probably one of those that gets the "kick in" late. I was gaining at a steady, linear rate and never got the "kick in" or the sudden boost that you're supposed to get from test e. No regrets though (except for the burned $$). At least I worked out hard, put on a quality 10lbs and now have an even better natural foundation from which to build on.

    Psychologically I would say I was a bit more motivated and disciplined, so I would say you're right! haha

    Excellent attitude, and you will definitely love it when the real gear makes it's appearance on your frame in the future.

    too bad you cant name the lab with bunk gear, could save us all alot of money

    and your blood results provide little doubt that it was bunk

    I am a "sliver lining" kind of guy. When someone has gains while only THINKING they are on cycle it means they have a decent work ethic.

    Dude that sux. I got my gear online and only hope it isn't bunk. My friend has 3 or 4 cycles under his belt and he used them for each of his cycles and had great success. Did you show any sides while on, possibly psychologically? I am only on my fifth week of 500mg of test ent and haven't noticed much of anything other than acne starting on my chest, back and shoulders and this could be psychologically as well. A lot of guys say test e kicks in around the 6th week. Hope so.

    So far, ive never been burned online (knock on wood). However, seems like almost all gear off the street is either weak or bunk. Dont be afraid to try different sources and look around for source check forums (google). Bad words spreads much faster then a good one!

    Thanks man, I've been lifting for a long time so the work ethic is definitely part of my pedigree.

    I did "think" i had nipple itching and possibly more libido but when all was said and done, I realized it was all in my mind.

    Thanks G. I definitely never had the exponential strength boom. Just slow and steady....
