If it's only been a few days you should stop immediately. You should never, ever, cycle without testosterone. Take some time and read the Successful First Cycle thread at the top of the AAS Q & A Forum. It will be enlightening for you.
Welcome to the forum as well!
Thanks for saying so, I may get testosterone if I have the funds then. Nonetheless, is pregnenolone a good idea on steroids/dianabol?
No it's a bad ideaQuote:

Well it's going to take a while for you to feel the shut down.Quote:

Any exogenous aas is enough to signal the hpta to stop producing test, but nothing but test is bioidentical enough to replace it
should i wait till the cycle is over before taking aromatase inhibitor?
25 days of 40mg/day dbol alone should be just enough to really screw you up. Report back with how you feel when your "cycle" is done. It might help others to not make the same mistake.
No, dbol aromatises like 10x more than test does.Quote:

All AAS is based off testosterone with added molecules here or there to structurely alter then and make them different.
Though nothing will be used in place of test by your body, other than test.
You should have been on AI since day 2 of the dbol. You should have been on test from day one.
Any strength increase yet? And more noticeable definition or muscle separation?
Or did you just get over all slightly bigger?
i'm slightly bigger. felt stronger on day 1, though it may have been because i wasn't fasting. started my inhibitor, feel a lot more emotionally stable. test comes tommorow. only been on for 4/5 days or so hopefully the negative effects are relatively negligible.
is it normal/expected that i felt better once i started the AI? after a couple of days of dbol alone, i started feeling kind of depressed and emotionally volatile. but i started AI and now that's subsided.
Yes, most AIs are fast acting and a of the side effects of high estrogen are fatigue and mood swings, low libido etc. It's good to keep your estrogen in check. Kind of hard to make good progress on a cycle if you are tired all the time, kind of defeats the purpose.Quote:

I just really like pinning, as odd as that sounds
Maybe it's mental, or whatever but once that needle leaves my body I feel on top of the world. Like "moohoohehehaha, just took my jeckle juice, time to go monster some weights"
Are there any foods to lower estrogen also?
If you have come here to only want answers that suit you , then just go on with your “cycle”Quote:

First off ...
It’s your FIRST cycle, which means you should and only be using a testosterone base.
If you have done the research and are aware of dbol then add it in at 20-30mg a day the most. 40mg is a lot for a beginner.

Don’t exceed 4-5 weeks max

okay dude, well i've taken the advice and gotten test already so it's all good. the delivery is delayed until saturday though, which is annoying.Quote:

There's not Test to maintain your HPTA and to interact with your liver to produce the hormones necessary for building muscle and regulating other essential hormones like estrogen. Your body chemicals can go out of whack and you may start to feel some negative sides. Some may be emotional like depression and other maybe physical like hard acne.Quote:

You're partially mistaken - I have been on dbol for 6 days, and test is coming tommorow.. I already have an aromatase inhibitor, and a PCT. I've been on the aromatase inhibitor a few days and it's been keeping me fairly emotionally stable. So given that I'm getting test tommorow, already got hormone support, I think the cycle should work out okay, maybe not as good as if I'd prepared 100% properly, but I'll salvage most of it. Thank you guys for keeping me in check though, otherwise I probably would have screwed myself over. Respect.Quote:

okay, i'll run test and try it on it's own. hopefully that goes good. i read the FAQ btw
will the AI help prevent shutdown or is shutdown just guaranteed anyway?

All, i repeat ALL steroids will have you shut down. Done more instantly than others. But 2 weeks on any compounds will shut you down.
I really want you to read about the negative feed back loop.
I'm from the school of thought that I want to know why the advice I'm being told is the way it is, instead of just blindly following advice.
Also what do you have for PCT?
if it's not 1575mg clomid (clomiphene) and 700mg Nolvadex (tamoxifen) you need these drugs and those amounts.
It doesn’t matter if your test is coming tomorrow or Monday or Tuesday ...
The point everyone is making is you are running dbol without test.
EVERYONE is saying to stop now and start all over once you have everything in place. You are truly not taking what experienced people are suggesting and just continually just doing what you want
Dbol is a pretty harsh oral especially running it at 40mg a days ESPECIALLY WITHOUT TEST.
Test and dbol should be started together.
And this is your first cycle; why would you want to have a first shitty cycle. Do things to a standard to see how your body reacts and then experiment with other compounds later to see how you respond to each ..
BUT ALWAYS RUN TEST.

The only advice I'm going to add... is before you started introducing hormones into your buddy and following your buddies advice to take Dbol on its own... You should have educated yourself
You're obviously not listening to what anyone here is saying.. So when you're hip deep in shit... because you will do something else stupid in the future with these substances.. Don't come here complaining or asking for others to help fix what you could of avoided.
Relax, I've been paying attention, reading the FAQs and making adjustments. Don't need a bunch of people flexing their advanced experience on me and insinuating disaster snarkily when I've already made several attempts to rectify my noob starting point. I'm on test now.
Dude just krrp running the dbol.Quote:

That's not even remotely close to "disasterous".
Some cycled are even purposely planned out that way.
Run your test and dbol how you planned.
A dbol front load is one of the most common cycle plans there is.
I'm going to run this:
Test 400 per week with a prop front load daily at 25mg fir the first week with the test 400 and 30mg dbol. Daily.
You'll be fine. In fact I'd be surprised if you even felt any different if you run test from day 1 with Dbol.
I'd just double up on test this week.
Also fellas, you've been up this dude's ass hardcore. He's Been chill the whole time.
No Neef to rub his face in shit daily untill he snaps back, then you'll call him a troll or tell him to GTFO
Courtesy is rare these days, huh....?
Thumbs up to you Couchlockd. No hostility to these dudes but to be fair a lot of their replies were based off the initial first post without scrolling down and it got redundant.
Joking aside. He has taken what has been said and made adjustments so there is some hope. I would like to ask what his diet and training looks like.Quote:

So keep reading and reading... Also listen to your body and mental state whilst you're on cycle... If a problem occurs don't just blow through the stop sign.
Take it easy you big ol stick in the mud we know you're the coolest guy here and the most knowledgeable so you don't got to flex your muscles buddy we're all less than you are we promiseQuote:

Why don't you lighten up a little bit man?
The place is the same as it was eight years ago.. People not educating themselves and only wanting answers they wish to hear. I don't have issues with people asking questions, my issue is people only listening to what they want to hear.Quote:

Quality over quantity for me. But perhaps your right, I need to be more patient.
