If you feel you are ready, you are. There are some additional side effects that might occur when taking steroids at this age, but they are even more critical when taken with 16-19. Your growth plates can close. This is a risk you have to deal with, but I for myself already had a well developed bone structure and height at the age of 20, even 18+ so.
You have to remember that millions of youngsters took steroids in the U.S., for getting more successful in sports - who don't have a clue of what the **** they are doing, doing no proper PCT, heck, don't even inject sterile.
The vast majority is absolutely fine tho.
Correctly administered a simple test E cycle will do little, if any harm. You should check if you are prone to male pattern baldness. If you do carry the gene responsible for it, I would not consider using steroids, as they are known to rapidly accelerate the progress.
