Alright, so let me explain the current situation. I came off of a short TestE 600 cycle as per a doctor's recommendation, dropped everything cold-turkey because he wanted my baseline levels. Got bloods 3 weeks later (May 5th). Results came in. My test was lower than it should have been at the time (380) but my E2 was in range (26). I was generally feeling pretty good off the cycle (wasn't feeling well on cycle due to my inability to dial in E2, hence why I saw the doctor in the first place). Had some ED issues but it was apparent that the Test I was using must have been under-dosed because the taking into consideration the half life, I should have been higher at the time of bloods, only 21 days post the last pin.
So, here is where is gets a little complicated. Prior to reviewing my bloods with my doctor (May 19th), I started up again May 5th (immediately post having blood drawn) with same TestE I had been on prior. Pinned 250 Test E and 750iu HCG that day. Didn't know it was underdosed at the time because I hadn't seen the bloods. Kept it as 250, once per week. Also started taking some Proviron 50mg ED, HCG 500iu E3.5D, and .25 ADEX EOD. Things were generally pretty good. Some days I'd have great wood though, others not so much, like 70% quality. In hindsight, good wood was typically after I pinned the HCG. Morning wood was hit or miss. The first day I pinned though (May 5th), I was like a stallion. That quickly subsided.
Then I saw my doctor, we concluded the TestE was garbage. So I obtained some Testoviron amps from Bayer Schering. Really nice stuff. Pinning 250 EW, Friday morning. Have done this the last 2 Fridays, that includes today. I am going to stay there. Now, since I switched to the pharma Test, I have been having issues with my pecker again. Can't seem to dial in that E2. I figured because the .25 ADEX EOD was good on the underdosed stuff, I should bump it up a little. So last Friday I pinned the Testoviron for the first time. Saturday I took .5 ADEX. No morning wood all weekend. Tuesday, pinned 500iu HCG in the morning took another .5 ADEX that evening. Wednesday, nothing. Thursday morning (yesterday), I actually had decent, not great, morning wood and libido was generally pretty high all day. Pinned 250iu HCG. Erection quality during the day was 70%. Took .5 ADEX yesterday evening to keep the EOD schedule. No morning wood or anything really this morning. Actually felt pretty lethargic. Pinned the Testoviron.
Now, I know I can't really be certain as to what the hell is going on until I get bloods again, but here are some things to note at the higher dose .5 ADEX, so far:
-Nips are not sensitive, but a little puffy. They were a little sensitive at the .25 but not so much and not consistently.
-Testes, they seem to hang low in the mornings/evenings but are pulled up during the day. When I was taking the .25 and on the supposedly bunk gear, they were hanging low all day. However, while they did become enlarged and hang lower post the HCG, I noticed they shrunk up still about 2 days after.
-Joints seem to be okay. I know low test can result in soreness/pain. I normally have some creeks anyways, so nothing out of the ordinary.
-I don't feel bloated.
-My back acne started to clear up very nicely at the .25 EOD. It was actually none-existent by the time I pinned my first shot of Testoviron last Friday. Then, I took that .5 ADEX Saturday and by Tuesday, I had a little more acne again. So I was thinking I was going high on my E2 again, mind you this was a day longer than the typical EOD I'd like to stick to.
-My pump at the gym last night was amazing, better than I have had in a very long time. Libido was up, wood was not great though, but was still horny. But still short of that optimal level.
So, to just recap. On the supposedly bunk gear, 500iu HCG E3.5 days, 50mg Provi, .25 ADEX EOD I was hit or miss on the morning wood, but generally speaking, my erection quality was far better and I had seemingly better libido. Now, erection quality is mediocre on the 250 pharma grade Testoviron, 500iu HCG E3.5 days, 50mg Provi ED, .5 ADEX EOD. And from what I have read, while the Provi doesn't seem to make me horny as hell, if my E2 was low, due to the higher DHT, I should still have great erection quality. That doesn't seem to be the case.
In short, and I know this is all over the place, for where I am at pinning 250mg EW, 500iu HCG E3.5Days, 50mg Provi, and .5 ADEX EOD, what are your recommendations? Personally, I may stick with the .5 ADEX EOD for another week because I know it hasn't reached its full potential, but I don't want to crash my E2 either. I've also contemplated dropping everything and starting at .25 EOD again after about a week, but because that was working fairly well on the bunk stuff, I don't want to risk going to high and the Acne coming back. Essentially, I am looking for some insight. I want to stick to a certain dosage and then get bloods again in like 2 weeks to see what the hell is actually going on.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
John
