    Dbol gyno/roid gut concern

    I used one cycle of oral dbol (can't remember dosage but it wasn't anything crazy) probably five years ago in college and I'm afraid it was a huge mistake. I was pretty naive and stupid about the whole process and didn't take anything to offset the estrogenic effects right after the cycle was complete. The buddy I got it from was very confident that one cycle wouldn't cause any gyno or other negative side effects, but I feel like now five years later there have definitely been some effects. I definitely saw great gains with the dbol and I shot up past 210 lbs where I started around 190 or so and my strength gains were great as well. Which looked pretty good on my 5'10" frame.

    Anyhow, that was the first and only time I've ever used and I've continued working out since then. Keep in mind the transition my body has gone through could also be contributed to the fact that I'm not nearly as active as I was in high school or college with sports and all. I can't imagine that sitting down for 6-8 hrs a day at a job can be all that great for the physique.

    I can't remember exactly when it was but sometime after that cycle I started noticing the roid-gut that people get where the upper abs protrude. I've never bee too bothered by it but it's definitely something I did not have before the cycle. Before I cycled I was a more slightly built guy with a mid-distance runner type of build. I had good definition and was always pretty close to having a consistent six-pack. After the cycle though I feel like I've ruined my physique forever and that's something I can never get back. I also started noticing some potential pre-gyno activity in my chest. Now I haven't been to a doctor for this but I feel I'm definitely on the brink or have been for quite awhile. I've always had a large/strong chest but now it resemble more of what you see in the gyno pictures you see on the web (muscle with flab on top).

    So my body has gone under a complete transformation to where now I'm around 240 lbs. Like I said I've not abandoned working out as I'm probably the strongest I've ever been now so I know that contributes to some of the weight gain. The slight-track type body is all gone and I'm more of a fullback or linebacker now. Which at this point is not all that desirable. I'm just wondering if anyone else has seen negative side effects from using dbol just once and would those side effects remain in the body or alter your body's biology four to five years later?

    I also see people writing about letro as a combatant to gyno but would that be an effective treatment for me being that it's been so long since I've cycled? I would assume usage of something like letro would only be good right after a cycle is finished.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    I've heard of growth hormone gut nut nothing from steroids. Letro will not likely be of much use this long after your cycle. The only option is likely surgery. The best bet would be to get your bf down as low as possible and see where you are at. You need to run an ai like adex or aromasin on cycle. Also post cycle therapy is required after a cycle too.

    Thanks for the input. Yeah I'll try to get my bf down as much as possible. I've just been on a bulking/building mindset for so long that I think it's going to be pretty difficult to do. Once I got to around 220 it seemed like I couldn't put weight on fast enough, but at that point I didn't see much use in being 5'10" 225+ lbs anymore. I'd like to get down to 210-215 but I think that's going to be very tough to do without a major lifestyle overhaul.
