    Question Question!! How Long Does Sust & Deca Keep While Refrigerated?

    Quick question!
    How long can you store Sustanol & Deca if refrigerated?
    The seals have been broken, there is about half a bottle left in each, leftovers from the last cycle.
    They kept sealed for 12 weeks of the cycle, then opened the last 4 weeks. It has been going on 12 weeks since the end of the cycle.
    In short, 12 weeks sealed, 16 weeks since seal has been broken.
    If another cycle was started in 4 weeks (20 weeks since seal has been broken, 32 weeks old in total), would it still be good to use?

    Thanks in advance!!

    Another thought, do the fluids tend to seperate over time?
    Is there any sort of maintenance that needs to be done when storing over long periods of time?

    Yes it is good.
    No need to refrigerate.
    Keep in a cool dark place.

    Don't referigerate - keep in a cool dry place. Gear lasts years

    No seperation should occour if it does then you will see crystaline structures form on the glass. If this happens just put a half inch of water in a coffee cup and microwave the water only, (no vial in micro) then once the water is about boiling hot just set the vial inside the cup and the crystals will dissolve again.

    Taking it out every 30 seconds or so and shaking it a little speeds the process but isnt really necessary.

    Is it damaging to have it refrigerated, or just unnecessary?

    Also... i said a half inch as the point is not to submerge the top of the vial. Just clarifying

    It shouldnt damage it but it is totally unnecessary and once it has been used and outside air let in, it can become clody from condensation. Just keep at a steady room temp and it will be fine. When you remove it from the fride let it gradually come to room temp to prevent cloudiness.
    I.e. little water, ice cube, let it gradually come to room temp on its own.

    I have shot plenty of cloudy gear though. Just mastrubative I suppose....

    Perfect, that's exactly the answer I was looking for.

    I appreciate you taking the time to give good advice, and I hope to get to know everyone better on here as well.
    The amount of information available on this site is almost overwhelming to be honest lol, it's like getting a second degree trying to learn everything.
    It's good that people are willing to provide advice and info, keeping noobs like myself from doing something dumb and hurting themselves

    Brother we are thrilled to have you.
    We are gonna get this place jumping with a personality of its own with guys like you sticking around.
    I can also guarantee there are things here doctors dont know. Almost 20 years of cumulative knowledge and ideas from guys that lived the life all their lives. This is the oldest and most extensive stash of info there is. Other boards have the same general info but a lot of it came from here. Its not as dense in their feed either. This site is dedicated to info only, as it has never been a source board.

    I believe it too!
    Doctors are so highly restricted from prescribing it, most don't even bother messing with it.
    I only had one military doc while I was in Wounded Warrion Btn that was willing to prescribe me, a couple cycles of oxandralone, and I remember all the extra hoops he had to jump through to get it cleared and specially ordered. It was such a hassle that he quit after the second go round, despite obviously high success in increasing my strength & efforts to get out of the wheelchair.
    I've been on my own since then to try and help myself out, educating and obtaining.
    This site is a gold mine when it comes to the education part, because like you said, there's a lot of experience here.

    I do have another question, can you recommend a site, or a thread on this site about recommending sites to obtain from? I know that's venturing into the more taboo questions that not everyone is comfortable talking about, but it's something I am pushing for now that the last source I had went dry. If you're not comfortable giving an answer, maybe just give me a nudge in the right direction

    I heard that name passed around before.. but I have also heard there has been widespread issue with counterfeits associated with the name as well.
    Is there any advice on ensuring genuine products?

    You'll also see expiration dates on gear - that is more a formality than anything - it won't make you explode if you use it a month or two beyond the date.
