    Deca and/or EQ alongside TRT

    After an amazing experience with NPP....

    I have decided to run deca @ 100-150 mg per week alongside my TRT dose of Test C.
    Anyone else do this? What are your thoughts.
    Do you see any issues with this as long as lipids are monitored?
    Do any of you find you still need to take a dopamine agonist with it at those dosages?

    What are your thoughts on running EQ @ 100-150 mg per week alongside TRT?

    Furthermore, what about a combination of both?
    Test C 150mg per week
    Deca 100mg per week
    EQ 100mg per week

    I know thats 350mg total weekly, so its closer to a blast than it is a cruise....but I am curious If anyone has done this and for how long and if there were any issues?

    Forget the Eq, up the deca to 350mg/week. Have caber on hand, run labs 2 weeks in and Check prolactin.

    I run deca at 125 mgs per week alongside my trt. Have for years with occasional breaks. Caber has not been necessary although I prefer it. Read this:

    Have ran
    test 100-125 plus Deca 150
    test 100-125 plus Tren 50

    I prefered the Deca. I tried the tren for the reduced Estrogen conversion. Come to find out you retain as much water on Tren and low doses do not stop sides.

    Just a forewarning.....Adding substances to test TRT are a gateway....to cycling lol

    That's probably riskier than blasting /cycling isn't it? Because you stay on it. If you don't stay on it by definition it isn't a cruise. Correct?

    That's what I was looking to hear.
    I am thinking 100mg per week for me, do you think this amount will still yield joint benefits?

    Any word on doing the same with EQ for the endurance related benefits?

    100 is fine. Just takes time to yield results, which is what we're looking for. Slow and steady wins this race. No, I would not do the same with EQ.

    Well I am on a blast now which includes NPP @ 350mg per week, so If I time it right I am assuming it will just kinda piggy back off that?
    Perhaps start pinning deca 2 weeks away from finishing my last NPP dose?

    Sounds like a plan to me.

    What is your TRT dose? What are your levels? What effect does the deca have on your levels?

    Equipose is useless. Deca is great.
    I am in no way trying to be rude but why do you think eq is to be ran with deca? I have seen a thousand posts from guys asking the question, "deca or eq?".
    The answer is simple are you bulking? If yes then use deca and pitch the eq in the trash. All eq is good for is raising your rbc count and giving you the illusion of gains.

    Once again not being rude I just swear this is an epidemic. Many years ago we all knew deca and eq were not anywhere near in the same class and the general consensus was eq was the shittiest steroid available.

    60 - 70 mgs x 2 per week. Anywhere from 1200-1500 depending on timing of blood work. Deca has no effect on my testosterone levels , it's not test.

    I am gonna try deca on trt. My pain without it has been unbearable. Nsaids dont touch it. Cortizone works but still isnt as effective as deca. During my deca cycles my arthritis is practically painless.

    do you never go below 1200?
    are docs OK with those levels constantly?
    I have a new doc, and did bloods, was just below 1200,
    and he sent me a letter on all the perils of test use, it would be unethical to prescribe it,
    in the end, I was unaware he was testing my levels, so pulled blood 2 days after shot,
    but, after I had a discussion with him he gave me a 3 month script, and was referring me
    to an endo...nervous if this is a good or bad thing

    Rarely below that level.
    My Uro is fine. I control my protocol and he's there to help me. He respects my knowledge level as I do his.
    Testing 2 days after shot is showing your peak level, not your trough level. Your doc needs to factor this in as well, but most don't understand half-lives.
    Love to see the letter on "Perils" of test use....
    Doc's title doesn't mean much. I prefer Uro over Endo but the main thing is that they understand hormones. It's really not that hard but they tend to over-complicate things due to age-old dogma.
