    Merc I have a questionfor you. How can Progesterone be responsible for the increase in arousal? I found a read that actually stated that Progesterone can increase LH pulses which in turn can create arousal....this true? BTW, thanx for the redirect

    sorry, i guess the question was if superdrol can eradicate estrogen just like the injectable masteron which I have run with test b4 and had really good dry results.

    Hey merc I wanted your thoughts and opinions on my coming up cycle. This will be m second cycle first cyle was EQ, Test C, Var. I really like the var and EQ. I really don't like the long esters so im going with all short esters for this cycle. My goal is to gain about 15lbs solid. Please give me all the input you have. If possible I would rather do EOD injections I'm not afraid of the pain but I know Test P is potent. Thanks.

    D-bol 40mgs dly wk 1-4
    Test P 75mgs ED wks 1-8
    NPP 75mgs ED wks 1-7

    I'll be taking eromasin and nolvadex for PCT I will also have A-dex on hand.

    You could look into using the cycle you layed out in your above post... Test , Deca.. Alot of people like that stack..

    I would look into doing Anthony Roberts pct..

    http://forums.steroid.com/showthread...ny+roberts+pct

    Keep me posted on what you decide and on your cycle results when you start..






    about the prop and superdrol
    sorry, i guess the question was if superdrol can eradicate estrogen just like the injectable masteron which I have run with test b4 and had really good dry results.


    Bitta take a look at this article from the SD write up ..

    As stated earlier, Superdrol is a mild androgen, and anti-estrogenic. Testers found no occurrence of acne, excessive hair growth, indications of benign prostate hypertrophy (BPH). You will not want to brave the back cramps to take enough of this to make you have to begin to be worried about androgenic sides. At 40mg, one tester noticed a tendency to bruise more easily. Zero estrogen conversion with this one, because it's 5-reduced and A-ring alkylated on top of that. Binding to the aromatase enzyme, estrogen production will be reduced. Also, the parent compound (Masteron) is used exclusively as an anti-neoplastic for metastatic breast cancer, so Superdrol is a strong anti-e. Clearly, Superdrol is not progestational, it is non-aromatizable, and even anti-estrogenic. But this said, it is worth reminding you that no one is clear on what the reasons are for why people get gyno. It can occur even in people using substances with these characteristics. One tester thought he could be having some early symptoms of gyno, although on paper there is clearly no reason to suspect Superdrol contributed to this. The point to take from this is that it is imperative to always have nolvadex or generic tamoxifen citrate powder on hand to administer at the first notice of symptoms of gyno.

    JDM,

    I like prop ED ... I have seen people do ED and EOD and the was no diffrence results wise.. You do get a more stable blood level when injecting ED though.. Your cycle looks good..

    I have been getting alot of postive feedback lately from people using dbol and prop.. If you follow most post about it on the board you will see that alot of people only liked using dbol for a kicker when using a long chained ester... Now alot of people seem to really like dbol and prop..

    Just make sure your training and diet are on point and you should do very well..

    Keep me posted on your cycle results... Or let me know if you have anyother questions...

    Hey Merc, I thought I'd ask you this since you 're on HRT. I'm thinking of going that route sometime.

    Question: When Doc puts you on testosterone and then has you come in for testing later, is he able to tell the difference between your natural test levels and the prescribed test levels he's got you on? I mean how does he know how to adjust your dose?

    Reason being is I'm thinking I want to come in for a physical during a cycle, get tested low, and get prescribed!

    Ecto .. When they start you on HRT they take blood to get your hormone levels... They will use that as a reference to see how you are responding to the dose that they have you on ...

    So say you go in for blood work and your test level is 247 NG/DL .. Than they start you on HRT using 150 mg of cyp per week.. In about 5 weeks they will have you return for another blood test to see were your hormone levels are at .. So they can then tell how effective the dose they have you on is ..

    Have you ever had your hormone levels tested before ? Are you on a cycle now ?



    hey merc,how are you bro ?

    Mr Newbreed

    Glad to hear you are still having good results .. How long is left on your cycle ??

    Thanks Merc. No I'm not on cycle now. Yes I've had my test levels checked. Last year they were 440 NG/DL. This year they are 550 NG/DL. I know that is normal range.

    So I'd need to be on a PCT before getting test levels checked again, for them to register low, if that's what I want huh?

    I just did'nt know if a testosterone check would tell the difference between endogenous and injected testosterone.

    Ecto,

    No you dont have to go on pct ( sorry I wasnt more clear ).. I was just wondering if you were on cycle... That is good that you have had your blood tested.. Is always better to really know were everything is at..

    Yes your test level is in range ( for your age).. But you are still in about mid range .. 247- 840 ng/dl (is within normal range)..

    If you still have low energy and low sex drive( with your hormone levels begin were they are at now) you can report this to your doctor and tell him you would like to be prescribed testosterone .. Even though you are in mid range the doctor might want to bring your test levels up since you are noticing that you just dont have the drive and the energy you had when you were younger..

    Hi Merc. I ran a PCT of HCG, Aromasin, Nolva, and Vitamin E, for the 8 week run I followed on the board. Ended about a month ago. I remember you replied to a couple of my questions. I just had my labs done because I have been feeling like SHIT for a long time. My Serum was 18 ng/dL and Free test (direct) was only 0.3 pg/mL.... I'm freaking out! No wonder I feel like I should be floating in the toilet. I haven't even had the urge to bang my girl, who's one of the hottest girls on the planet (I'll send you pics) for so long I'm worried she's gonna haul ass. I just turned 33, my other labs were normal other than HDL being a little low at 34 mg/dL. Is there anything I should try before HRT? I want to have a kid in the next year and it's not gonna happen like this If you would be willing to share some of your time and knowledge with me I would gladly pay you for it. I just don't want to go to a general practitioner who's not going to know a damned thing and maybe make things irreversible, if they aren't already. I can't PM you or I would give you my #. I will seriously pay you for your expert advice right now. Thanks for all the info I've already learned on the board from you!

    Hey D,

    Sorry to hear about the problems you are having .. I really appreciate your kind words .. You dont have to pay me anything .. I just try to give some insight to people from what I have learned from begin on HRT..

    Sometimes it is best to see a good Doc ( in your area) when you have problems.. I could help try and locate a good endocrinologist in your area if you want ... That said I can try and help give you some feedback ...

    So you did pct for 8 weeks ? Or you ran a 8 week cycle ? Sorry for the confusion I want to make sure I was totally clear on this?? And how many weeks did you use the HCG for ?

    Also what compounds did you use on your cycle , and how many previous cycles have you done ?

    I did do 8 weeks of PCT, I believe it was Anthony's from the site here. Felt like it was working, however it may have been psychological. Last cycle was Test Suspension and Winni which ended early October. I believe it was 1cc of each every other day, two 10cc of each. I've been on and off (more on) for the past 5 - 6 years and used Test E, Deca once about 4 years ago, Test Cyp, Test Susp, Winni, about 300 iu of HGH about 2 years ago at 3iu a day, Prop, Sustanon, and Fina a couple times. I tried to do even on / off times but often didn't. Occasionally did back to back cycles of 6 to 10 weeks without any breaks, much less PCT. This past PCT was the best I've done. Only taken HCG / Nolva once in the past. I'd be willing to bet my nats have been low for at least a couple years through cycles. I've definately not had the libido I did before (not even when I was on) and it's gotten worse over the last 4-6 months. That's pretty much it.


    Any advice or referrals you have would be appreciated... so tired of feeling like crap and the lab results just kicked me in my (apparently inactive) nuts. - which BTW did return back to normal or near-normal size during and post PCT but what they are producing is almost clear, very liquidy sperm I believe that means my sperm count is probably nada
