    There are lots of different tests you can get.. I know testing for your Test levels is important, what else should i be testing for? And im assuming i should do all this after PCT?

    4 times a year for me. Before a cycle is a good idea to make sure you are going into it with a "clean slate" and than during the cycle to make sure nothing it out of control. Doing it a month after cycle to see if test levels are back up isnt a bad idea either.

    I checked with a lab here that does blood tests they said I must have a doctors slip to get blood tests.

    If i do a test for Liver, cholestrol and lipids while on gear, will it show on the test or to they not check for testosterone levels in the blood.

    I dont have a doctor im really comfortable with, he's sort of a family friend.

    Exactly the same as me. I'll do it more often when neccessary. Such as using 17aa's for prolonged peroids.

    Just to add. I get the following tested at the times Bino's stated. 1-2 weeks prior to a cycle using any As/ProHormone's. 5-6 weeks in, when using 17aa's. The bloodwork then will determine whether I stay on the 17aa's and cycle altogether. Then 5-6 weeks after PCT has ended when all PCT compounds have cleared.
