How Long to Run a Low Test Dosage For??

[senior_xj]

I've been on a 250mg dose per week of Test-E for 28 weeks, plus 0.25 of arimidex EOD. I have only a few weeks left so here goes my question; should I order more & keep going, (preferred), or should I stop & run a proper PCT & give my body a break???

What are your circumstances and stats, particularly your age.

28 weeks is a long time to be shut down, if you're not on TRT I would recommend stopping immediately and running a proper PCT followed by blood work 6 to 8 weeks after PCT

why are you running such low dose for such a long period of time? What is the point of that unless you're on some type of TRT ?

36yrs old, 6' even at 230lbs. I'm no newbie here as i've ran plenty of cycles in the past & have always been a fan of low dosed test for lengthy periods of time...

Probably best to say that i'm not on here to build mass, but more so with strength gains & increasing overall pot usage.

[Igifuno]

Pot usage? I'm confused.

With regard to your original question, however, I would still recommend stopping right away, running a proper PCT, and getting blood work 6 to 8 weeks afterward.

If you have run several cycles at long periods of time, you very well may be an HRT candidate anyhow. Post PCT bloodwork will give you an idea and, if so, you should see a doc and consider going on HRT, at which point you can utilize a blast and cruise methodology or just continue running a low dose permanently.

Typo, sorry.

Increasing strength & cardio output is what my goals are.

Stop and PCT. Your HPTA might be hosed and you'd be a perfect candidate for HRT. Then you can cruise forever.

I'd recommend a break, although I'm not convinced a PCT will lead to a proper recovery. It is a low dose, but with that length of time, a complete recovery may not be practical. You said you've run long low dose cycles before. What was your recovery like - and by that, I mean, what did your blood work look like? How much time are you taking off between cycles.

I think you really need to cycle off, but keep in mind, if your serum hormone levels don't recover, your time off may now be a TRT dose of testosterone.

Also it is in your best interest if you donate blood asap, being on that long is a surefire way to have elevated rbc.

Just had blood taken yesterday.

You need to come off. Research the Scally Power PCT Protocol.

I thought I had read somewhere that 250 and below of test per week is barely more than what your body would produce naturally? Whats the point of this?

High end TRT is usually around 200mgs. It all depends on your metabolism though. Much less could put some people at a supraphysiologic level. We all respond differently.
