    Itchy skin whilst on cycle

    Hi guys,
    Strange one and can't seem to find anything relating to this.

    I'm itchy as fuck on this cycle, my arms, my feet, my legs, my wrists, its driving me mental.

    I'm taking tren , test, deca and winnies.

    Anyone had anything similar to this?

    I've gotten hives from running tren before.
    Benadryl helped.
    Lowering the dose helped more.

    Other H1 receptor antagonists are Loratidine (Claritin) and Cetirizine (Zyrtec), neither are associated with drowsiness and CNS depression.

    Actually cetirizine crosses the BBB in about 25% of people so it can have significant side of drowsiness. I like Allegra (fexofenadine) as a non-drowsy 2nd generation H1 blocker as well as Claritin.
    Zantac (ranitidine) can also help with hives/itching due to histamine and if you are having heartburn treat that at the same time (orals give some people heartburn, not sure if you’re running anything oral). I would monitor and make sure you don’t see increased or escalating symptoms, and it may be latex in the rubber stopper of the bottle, or any other constituent in your gear.
    Hope it goes away, as that is best case.
    If it gets really bad you might have to bag the cycle and next time add one gear at a time until you’re sure you’re gtg or you’ve identified the offending agent.

    Good luck!

    Winny pills..??

    Itchy skin is indicative of liver toxicity. Are you running two orals?

    *misread "deca: thought it said dbol ...but is the winny oral and what dosage are you running it at?

    Thanks for the responses guys.

    Yeah win pills, do you think it's those?

    I'm week 5 tomorrow and have been advised to switch to Mast prop at week 6, should I bring it forward a week?

    Yeah that's long enough to be on oral winny as it's pretty liver toxic. Of course everyone has a diff threshold where they start having symptoms but without knowing anything about your personal life ie recreational drug use/alcohol use, a good assumption is that your liver enzymes are high enough to start making your skin filter more toxins which can make you itchy as hell.

    The beautiful thing about the liver is it regenerates so within a few days of being off your enzymes should come down and the itching will stop.

    It sounds like an allergic reaction to something.

    I'm gonna have to crack on with it. I've no idea what could be causing it.

    2x Benadryl a day tends to help it quieten down.

    Swapping my winnies to Mast Prop next Friday so could eliminate with winnies.

    Had my liver checked and all good.
