    Year Long Anavar Cycle From Doctor

    Okay so i was planning on doing my doing my first cycle in january but i probably wont
    since my doctor is making try to improve my skeletal muscle and tendons, since they are weak, he is going to put me on 20mg of Anavar Ed for 365 days and maybe longer, possibily two years or more

    Is this bad? And will it suppress my test? He says it wont but should i take aromasin for the 365+ days as well for a test booster?

    Again this is not for me to get huge, i will have a proper cycle for that, but lately my joints cant handle my own weight and are becoming weak, therefore he is using anavar to strengthen them, I have osteoporosis.

    I already Picked up my anavar from the pharmacy and its in 5mg
    tabs and i take 2 pills(10mg) in the morning(10am) and at night(10pm)


    My Stats
    25 years old
    175lbs
    5 10
    Been training for 8 years
    8% body fat

    It will suppress your testosterone. More knowledgeable members will chime in.

    It is used for what you're doctor is prescribing it for. It's not as common for this purpose as it once was but it's still prescribed for it some.

    Yes, it will cause some natural testosterone suppression. Total suppression? No, but probably somewhere in the 40% range, meaning approximately a total reduction in total test levels by 40%...maybe a little more. At your age, it would be possible for you to keep your test levels above a low level state...anything below 300ng/dl is normally considered low in most medical circles. However, I'm not a huge fan of that number, it's too general and doesn't take into account what might be the possible normal for each specific individual.

    You should ask your doctor to check your test levels and to recheck them after 5-6wks of use. If a significant reduction in testosterone is found hopefully he'd be willing to prescribe you some type of testosterone. It doesn't sound like he will before hand but at least ask him to leave this option on the table for the future. There's no harm in asking.

    shut down will occur--you will likely need to get an a.i. or dopamine agonst just to be on safe side--my one and only bout with var--25mgs--shut me down (long story on this)
    but its how ino my var was legit, and my other gear was bunk or majorly underdosed..

    even with that dosage, with it bn pharm grade--uno its legit, and you will still notice lean gains...after about 12 days straight you see exactly what im talking about as your lifting.

    goodluck broski.

    Shut down with Var is dose dependent and at that low dose, I agree with Metel, full shutdown isn't likely but suppression is for sure!

    So would taking aromasin at 25 mg ED keep my test levels up? and i did adk
    him about the test and he said if i did that, i would have total shit down and would risk my balls never working again since they would be shutdown for so long.

    Real interesting. Good points by Metal. The amount of suppression will be contingent upon dose as well as the ops metabolism. There's a risk-reward to this type of treatment IMO. At the same time you may be strengthening your tendons and ligaments you are functioning at a much lower T level. Ligaments and tendons are protein based. Lowering your T your are lowering your nitrogen levels, thus, less protein synthesis. If your doc's giving you anavar he may as well consider low dose Deca as well? But then you'd be shut down hard.

    Your DHT level will also drop as T turns into DHT everywhere except skeletal muscle via the 5 AR enzyme. DHT is what makes you a man and effects your CNS and many other things. Testosterone is in your muscle but DHT is everywhere else.

    I don't know about this therapy for such a long term. At least maybe talk to him about adding some HCG to your protocol two or three times a week to improve T production in effort to keep it somewhat normal, IMO.

    Okay do i went to the my doctor today and asked about test boosters and hcg, he insists that this low of a dose will not affect my test production but i am being monitored anyways and that if it does he will suggest either an OTC test booster, or aromasin, and after the long cycle will i need to do a PCT?

    Sounds like an interesting Dr. I haven't heard of many people getting a prescription for that... let alone for a full year? wow! Maybe some liver support would be needed for that long of a time?

    I need to see that doctor!!! Lol... Maybe get some deca, HGH, and test if he's throwing around anavar!!! Jk/lol

    Anavar is my last hope for repairing my tendons, i have been through tons of physical therapy and plenty of other non-steriodal solutions and none have worked. Ive had the problem since i was 16 and so he wants to give anavar a shot.
    Anyways any thoughts on using a OTC test booster, or aromasin? and after the long cycle will i need to do a PCT ?

    OTC testosterone is a joke!!! If he prescribed anavar then he should have no problem prescribing test!!! Sometimes you just have to ask, it seems like a totally legit request considering your goals... Good Luck!!!

    If you can't get test, I would work the hell out of my legs if I were you to try to keep your natural test elevated. Cardio, weights (obviously) even some HIIT training on a bike or whatever you like for your legs

    Fantastic answer.

    And i also agree with the suppression opinion vs shutdown, at that dose.

    He doesnt want to give me testosterone, because my body structure isnt strong enough to support my weight, adding in test would be bad, my levels are decent already and id be put on 300mg/week to maintain the levels i have now, so thats not much and its not worth the total shut down, plus extra test isnt for repairing joints/tendons/etc... thats why he wants to boost my test so there is no suppression through aromasin

    get on the Var then check your test levels in 6 weeks. I wouldn't ask for any test unless you feel shitty. I did a var only cycle at a higher dose for a few months and felt fine. Var is a DHT based drug and 20mg isn't much; you should be ok.
