I don't plan to take steroids until I am 24 years old. I am currently 21 years old and have been lifting for about 2.5 years. I wanted feedback on the cycle I plan to do when I turn 24. I am trying to minimize side effects, mainly balding and acne. Balding does run on the my father's side of the family and I actually started noticing slight hairloss in the temple areas of my head at the age of 19. I've been on finasteride+minoxidil since then and whatever small hair I had lost has grown back. Do you think the following cycle would be safe for my hairline if I continue to take minoxidil + finasteride while on cycle?
week 1-12 : test-e - 250 mg every 3.5 days (500mg/week total)
Week 1 to 12: hcg - 250 iu every 3.5 days (500 iu/week total)
week 1 to 14: armidex - 0.25mg every other day
PCT
Week 16 to 20:
cllomid -75/50/50/50 & nollvadex - 40/20/20/20
I understand the principles of nutrition and track my macros everyday whether I am bulking or cutting. I also understand that progressive overload is the key to building muscle and have been focusing on increasing my strength every workout at the gym. I am also minoring in nutritional science to expand my knowledge on the subject a bit more.
My stats:
5'8" 157 lbs. ~10% bf. I'm hoping I will be around 175 ~10% in 2 years which is when I plan to run this cycle.
Like I said before, my main concern is the acne and balding. I had acne when I was about 14 up until about 18 and I talked about the balding earlier in the post. How bad do you think this cycle will be side-effects wise?
Any advice is appreciated.
