So whats the final word on test shutdown?

[darklurker88]

From some I hear that Ill be a raging bull and others that I will shutdown.
From research I have understood these are phases, usually presented in 3-5 weeks (shutdown) and lasts only a few weeks.
1) how common is this?
2) will i have steel like erections and then none at all?

what ru ta;kin about shut down during ur cycle ?

[darklurker88]

Many users have reported shutdown such as deca dick, flu like symptoms, all which (i have been told) lead to lack of sexual desire, potency of erections, and other pieces of info like that.
NOW, other people say you get a great sex drive while on the juice.
My question is do you first get one phase, then plunge to the no-desire fase?
How is it like? Im about to do my first shot in a few weeks, still researching and asking as much as possible on contradicting view points.
Peace out

It varies from individual to individual, and also the types, doses and length of AAS used. ANY AAS has the potential to shut you down. Usually with test and related esters you will notice an increase in libido, because it is a natural substrate for the AR and also allows conversion to DHT which is essential for maintaining libido. A few other drugs fall into this class as well (proviron , d-bol). But other AAS like fina, nandrolone , anadrol (some), they don't do much for supporting sex drive. It also depends on length and dose as well. You may notice a super increase in libido during the first part of your cycle, but may lose this towards the end, possibly due to estrogen accumulation which can kill sex drive. Any drug which binds the progestin receptor or functions like a progestin will kill sex drive (nandrolone, fina etc). Also consider the depth of inhibition which seems to accumulate with longer "on" times. But the good thing is that a little hCG can go a long way in restoring sexual function.
