I would not cycle steroids unless I were to be on TRT for the rest of my life. You will lose pretty much all of your gains and go back to pre-cycle status within a couple of months or more of stopping the cycle. So you will have accomplished nothing but screwed up your HPTA and caused some possible irreversible damage to your body. Getting off cycle sucks even when going back to TRT, now imagine how bad it sucks going back to natty... The guys who claim to keep anything from a cycle are guys who were never near their genetic limit to begin with - after 12 years of training, I assume you are close to your genetic limit.
That said, a recomp doesn't really work, imo. People throw that around, but I've yet to see someone do a successful recomp. You can gain more muscle than fat during a bulk, which would technically mean your BF % went down, but that doesn't mean you now have less fat than before; you have more.
You may think "I'll bulk for 1.5 months, and cut the next 1.5 months." Doesn't work that way. You will lose anything you've gained, much more quickly than just bulking and then going natty. The body needs to hold on to muscle for a long time for it to become more or less permanent. If you just put muscle on in 2 months and then immediately cut, you will lose most or all of that, and that's with TRT/steroids.
There are compounds like tren that you can blast and possibly lose fat while gaining muscle on a cycle, but the doses would have to be on the higher end, and you'd probably feel like shit most of the time. These compounds come at a cost, which is your health and wellbeing. Think before you jab
So for you, I'd stay the course until you want to go full blown TRT and then you can cycle to your heart's content.
