    natural test returning??

    I've been done with my pct for about a week now. Someone told me morning wood was a sign that test levels are coming back. Is this just bro science? I had a semi when I woke up this morning for the first time in a while... Too Much info??

    Agree with above - a good sign, but not definitive like bw.

    morning wood is one of the best visible/physical indicators you are going to get about your test levels but it fluctuates too much due to missing some sleep, being stressed out, having an extra drink the night before etc. blood or saliva testing is the best overall.

    forgetting to let the air out of the pumps inflatable chamber does not qualify as morning wood.

    Ok so I was planning on getting blood work done one month after my last pct dose, because I know nolva/clomid inflate test levels. Is this the best bet?

    One month or later post PCT is fine.

    But i would do two if you can, 4-6wks apart to ensure hpta is up and hormones values are close to, or where they are expected.

    L O to the f***ing L !!!!!

    On a side note....are BW results the ONLY indication to follow if you are ready to go on another cycle or not? For example, we know the protocol is time on = time off. But what if one gets BW done 1 week after PCT and their test levels were the same as before starting the cycle, does that make it OK to start the 2nd cycle despite that time on was not time off??

    Its not just about bloodwork, although that is very important. But there is also the CNS (Central Nervous System) to consider. This system needs to rest after the trauma and stress you just put your muscles, hormones, and body through. This is another reason to wait time off + PCT.

    Dont try to rush it, otherwise you may find yourself with other health complications.

    One week after pct the levels will still be inflated due to pct drugs. And generally time on + pct = time off. Now if you wait long enough for your levels to balance out after pct, then this is a valid question...

    Its definitely a good sign. The best way to know for sure though is thru blood work.

    Ask him for a full male blood panel, including an E2 sensitive assay.

    I agree. Wait one or two months. It's too soon.

    Youre welcome.

    Yes, its called an assay. And I would deny any AAS use to avoid insurance complications down the road.
