AI as needed.
PCT: Nolvadex 40/40/20/20/20 (started 2 weeks after last pin)
I didn't use any hcg
Background: This was my 3rd cycle and prior to this pct was always fine. I never had any issues recovering, but this cycle has proved much harder to bounce back from. I know it was stupid to do this so young and to not get bw prior, but you live and learn and no-one could've told me otherwise. I understand it was dumb.
It's been 9 weeks since my last pin (7 weeks from once it cleared from my system).
About a month ago my total test came out at 368 with a range of 348-1197 ng/dL. :tear:
Today my results came in at 589 range of 348-1197 ng/dL :7up:
I'm definitely not my old self yet, but it's a far cry from how I was feeling at 368.
My E2 came up pretty high unfortunately. Estradiol 64.3 with a range of 7.6-42.6 pg/mL
I'm going to get another panel done next month and I really hope that my total testosterone has climbed back to normal by then. It's been a very long 9 weeks.
I wanted to post this so anyone else my age that is going through the same situation has some relief. I was really worried that my t-levels were not going to rise much since I have never felt this bad post-cycle before but things have gotten better. It was extremely temping not to just medicate the issue away instead of pulling through the wait, but it looks like it's paying off. Next month will be the real test.
Here are my results for anyone curious. Any feedback is appreciated if you got any. Also just curious, is a jump of 220 ng/dL in 3-4 weeks considered good/poor/average? I understand everyone is different and there are many variables, but if anyone knows... It would be astounding to think that it could possibly be another 220 higher next month if things work like that.
