What are the chances of not recovering from a Test only cycle (HRT)

[nombie]

"If for some reason you are unable to recover to an acceptable amount of natural testosterone production, you will eventually start looking into Hormone Replacement Therapy. If you end up on HRT, you will be on this for the rest of your life. You will be prescribed either a testosterone gel or intra-muscular injections to help bring your testosterone levels into an acceptable range. Before you think this is a good thing, think again. If you are 25 now, you will be using testosterone injections until you die. 50 years? 60 years? Who knows. Self medicating your hormone forever is a huge commitment and you had better be comfortable with this possibility. Even if you somehow think you will only be doing one cycle."

Iv been planning my 10 week Test-E only cycle for some time now. But after stumbling across this on the web^^^^^ I nealy turned white at the thought. What are the chances of not recovering from Test only cycle??

I was planning Test-E for 10 weeks @ 500mg inc PCT

very low

If the cycle is done properly with a good pct than the chances would be very low.

If you are healthy and young then you will recover from a 10 weeker.
I can see you are not gonna recover if you are 80 years old though.

If your older its a gamble, if your young and it happens you well probably be BBing or staying extremly fit most of your life anyhow. ....its all a gamble. If you drink for 10 weeks straight you could die!! m2c

It would be definitely low.

This is based on the premise that you are over 25 years of age.

With this being said, if PCT is started at the correct time, and you have all your auxiliary compounds for PCT in place, you should be fine.

This is why you run blood work 3 times.

Before cycle/during cycle/after cycle.

Then there is a baseline presented for comparison.

The correct time being approx 2 weeks after last shot? Is nolva alone sufficient for 10 weeks of test?

My pct looks like this nolva 40/40/20/20.

What dose of HCG is best on cycle? Would running AI (aromasin) hinder my gains?

[marcus300]

If you are old enough and your HPTA is fully functional the chances are low IMHO if you dont do anything stupid and use a good pct, but if you continue to cycle on and off for yrs i do believe the chances are very high that you will be on hrt sooner than you would be if you hadn't of cycled.

[gymnerd]

I agree, chances are low IF you run everything correctly. However there is always the chance that YOU are the one on that low side so it is something to consider very seriously test isn't grape fruit juice. IMO you should be OK but you always have to consider the chances you take.

Would running HCG during cycle make recovery easier, and significantly reduce the chance of never recovering?

when i was in my 30's i did cycles and recovered naturaly with no problems.I did probably 12 to 15 cycles usually not over 8 to 10 weeks long. Now i am 63 and have done 5 or 6 cycles over the past 3 years and also recovered naturally. I have done probably 30 cycles since the 80's and am not on HRT,my test level although not like it was in my 30;s is still good. I think as long as you dont stay on steroids for long periods of time you will be fine.especially if you use something to get your test level back up.

Yeah HCG will definatly help recovery but I bounce right back bro with good pct and IM 36 so you younger guys should be golden. The only point I was trying to make is there is always a chance although very small and it should be considered before you ever start just my .002

Im trying to get access to aromasin and HCG, I have nolvadex and the test at hand. As soon as I track a source for AI and HCG I will start the cycle

My cycle looks like this

Week 1-10 Test E 500mg
Week 3-10 HCG (Not sure how to run?)
Week 3-10 Aromasin (What dose?)

Week 12-14 Nolva 40mg ED
Week 14-16 Nolva 20mg ED

During puberty I experienced gyno, ( lumps behind nipples and sensitive nipples) so I think im prone to it on cycle.

1) Since Im planning on running HCG during cycle what dose AI should I run? 2) If gyno occurs do I run nolva till it subsides?
3) Is nolva alone enough for clomid?
4) How should I dose the HCG? bearing in mind this is my 1st cycle?

I sent you an email to help with hcg.
