To Cycle or not to cycle...that is the question

[eregitano]

New to the TRT starting tomorrow, 200 MG per week of cyp, however I've seen some suggestions to cycle this TRT and some who say stay on year round.

Want to make the most out of this without completely shutting down my system becuase while I'm low in the T dept, I'm borderline low. See this TRT as a way to both keep the T up and increase my performance in the gym closer to how I was 5-10 years ago.

What's the consensus on this question?

Some stats from you would be helpful. How old? Weight? Plan on having kids?

I think you're more likely to be able come off of TRT and have your natural testosterone production capabilities return to a decent level if:

- You're under 40
- You're currently over weight
- You run some hCG with your TRT -- either periodically or full time.

I think the younger you are and the more you can improve your health via diet and exercise, the greater your chances of getting off of TRT. So, if you're in your mid 30's with a body fat of 25% or greater, and you're just getting back in the gym -- you might find that temporary TRT coupled with dropping weight and gaining lean muscle mass could get you back in normal ranges with your testosterone production.

Want to use this TRT to not only bring back test levels but to give me a boost in the gym and some assistance in recovery
