Thick blood and steroids

[PowerGym]

Hi guys i am 20year old wanted to do cycle but after consulting with people on this forum i decided to wait a bit more.
I have thick blood (probably genetics,my whole family has it) so i wonder if i decide to start cycle some time soon would this be a problem? Do i have to lighten my thick blood before i start a cycle?

If by thick blood, you mean a high hematocrit, then yes you will need to keep it in check. If by thick blood you mean you have a clotting disorder (I have Leiden Factor V), then you will need to be doubly cautious.
I am glad you have decided to wait. 20 is young, IMHO. Your test levels are probably close to optimum.
Stick around and read and learn. Also, read up on polycythemia.
Please also visit our nutrition and workout forums. There is a wealth of info there that could be very useful.to you.

My doctor told me that i have much more blood in my body then i need , i thought thats what thick blood means.
Also told me that i should start donating my blood.
Anyway only reason i even considered doing cycle is bcs i have competition soon but for the sake of future competitions and my endocrine system i decided to wait for more years.
This question was just out of curiosity and thanks for reply

He may have meant too many red blood cells. Your hematocrit value would tell.you that. Again, stick around and visit our nutritional and workout forums. They likely would be very helpful. Bodybuilding, powerlifting, etc. isn't exclusively steroids . Steroid use is only a small piece of a large puzzle.
Really glad to hear you are waiting for a while. It shows wisdom, patience, and responsibility on your part. 2 thumbs up!!

Stay away from steroids at this age if you love your life. Mainly, if you suffer of clotting disorders. Strokes, could be around the corner. Don't joke about your body and the drugs. Be responsable. You can reach a good muscle gain without Steroids too, especially at your age. Don't be stupid. Pull yourself taking advantage of your age.

Good luck !
