HRT Later in life?

[ecto9]

Is it true that ppl that use steroids will eventually need to get on HRT later in life?

Not if you do them correctly... ie, PCT...

[Merc..]

It is not always the case.

People that have never taken AAS have to go on HRT .. Keep in mind that Test levels decline as you age. There are cases where males in there early 30's (even younger)have low test ( andropause) and need HRT and have never done a steroid in their life.

I agree with Merc, your test levels decline something like 1-2% a yaer from when you are about 25 till about 40 or 50... I dont think steroids are a direct cause of needing HRT... Chances are if you want to maintain your size at an old age, you will need HRT... a little bit of GH wouldnt hurt too...

OK thanks bros. I know test levels do decline with age, and i know with a proper pct your testes start producing test again after being shut down. I was just wondering if cycling on and off over time can cause the body to weaken in it's ability to "come back" after time...

Such as my case...but I have done pro-hormones unwisely.

I follow several boards and quite a few posters say they have been on cycles so long that they have permanently damaged their HPTA and so they do 200-500 mg of test per week as HRT while "off cycle". Some never bother to come off cycle at all. I am certainly no medical expert, but I do suspect that being on permanent high doses of AAS could have negative long term heath risks. But what the heck, adults should be free to make these decisions for themselves.

As We Age, We Age Because Our Hormones Decline. Hrt Is Replacement Value Therapy. I Personally Believe That 35 Is A Good Place To Start. I Started At 35 And Currently On Hrt Of Hgh, Test And Post Cycle Therapy Medicine, Hcg And Arimidex. Long Term, Low Does. Not Short Term Abuse. Feel Better, Great Sex Life, Happy Feeling. It Does Give You An Advantage In The Gym. Good Pumps, Speedy Recovery. Expensive But Worth Every Thousand Spent.
Follow A Good Clean Diet With One To Two Cheat Meals A Week And You Will Be Amazed Of The Results.

Ive looked for studies on this but havent found any yet.I have only found that the longer the cycle the longer the recovery.
