First Cycle Advice with Test E.

[newrobb]

last summer I did a short, poorly adminstered cycle with Test E and i want to try again. i've been training on-and-off for many years but haven't seen the results that I'm after. i want to do a cycle that is in between HRT and a bodybuilding cycle, but I don't want to have to worry about hair loss and other side effects. i am being treated for depression with an antidepressant and a mood-stablizer and have been on these medications for many years. my med-psychiatrist told me that steriods have a 30-50% chance of causing depression, which is a pretty serious percentage. i'm also worried about hair loss. my MD prescribed Finisteride to help combat this, which i haven't starting taking yet. so, when i last did Test E. i shoulder-injected 100mg once-a-week and noticed an increase in energy, some size, libido and a decrease in bodyfat. i believe that i also became more depressed, but it could have been situational at that time.

what would be the best way to determine my dosage to avoid hair loss, consider the Finisteride effects of Testosterone , while still getting the benefits of developing muscle but not needing PCT? Thanks.

this is my two cents on you Qs A: your gonna have side effects how many and how bad determined by how bad you abuse the drugs. And becoming more depressed on aas, is in you small little mind you should feel like you look or want to look; spectacular! If your depressed get over it becuase the meds you are taking are no better than placebos given in the most recent studies ive seen. Once more walking around with a hard on again like you twenty should make you feel at the minimum proud. Nobody understand how sideefects are measured as far a drugs. if you having more than one side affect from a drug your nutty to begin with. Soooooo after realizing your being treated for mental problems, you better stay away from steroids so i dont read about you in the paper and how you took them once and it caused you to be an idiot.

Hi New,
I understand your consideration on steroid used.
Almost every medicine or substance has sides effects but not all users have it and some can tolerate some sides effect. For instant I'm almost 60 yo taking testosteron but my hair haven't changes... they said every body is different.
My advice are, do more research for the AAS you will take bc I believe there is a drug to prevent hair loss but a don't remember the name.
Read the threads on what to do before taking AAS it is very important.
The most important is: do PCT after any cycle, you don't want your gain, strength, and sex life lost may be pemanently do you ? It was 4 month for me to educate myself before taking AAS.
The the benefit or calculated risk are for the users..... so it's up to you bro.

Hey Bro, don't pay any attention to jerks who spout off becuase they are ignorant, or because they have messed up personalities. Everyone alive has experienced depression and other mood swings at different periods in their lives. Just do what you're doing to take care of that and you'll be fine.

At 100mg per week that is the same dosage as trt. You shouldn't experience any more depression from using that dosage and most likely will feel better. Also pct wouldn't be needed for 100mgs per week.

I'm on trt now from my doc. Cypionate at 200mgs every 2 weeks. You should ask your doc to put you on trt. It's cheap, works very well and you can argue that it would help with your depression and quality of life. That way you'll be getting pharmaceutical grade and blood tests at the same time. Give it a try. It was easy to get my doc to agree.

Good luck.
