First Cycle Question...

[rjc]

Hey Guys,

Im currently on my first cycle of Test E @ 400mg per week. Im at the start of my 4th week today and so far everything has been going good. Weight is up 5kg (11 lbs) so far and strength is up too.

In the last week i have been getting really hot flushes and my face, neck and arms look red like im sunburnt all the time i have abit of bloat too.

I still have not noticed an increase in libido, if anything it has gone down and also at times have trouble staying hard when im with the gf.

Could this be from my estrogen levels being to high? or is it still to early in my cycle yet to notice any difference?

I go some arimidex from my doctor and was thinking about starting off on .25EOD to see if that helps.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

this can be a number of causes. High estro, high androgen levels, high rbc, high blood pressure. too low of estro, hormone fluctuations...you get the point. its really hard to tell man. any other sides you are experiencing? how often are you pinning?

I would wait another week or two for your blood levels to stabilize personally. If things do not improve then consider the adex. If its any consolation i ave ridiculous hot flashes and sweating on cycle as do alot of people.

also dont forget to stay hydrated

Im pinning twice a week, Monday morning & Thursday night.

I had my blood pressure checked by the doc when i got my adex, it was fine (which is why i thought it may be estro related) I thought my nips were getting a bit sensitive a few days ago but they seem ok today so i could just be paranoid.

He asked if i wanted a blood test to check everything but i wasnt sure if it would be too early in my cycle to tell anything from that.

mid cycle would be a good time to get levels checked. if your not having any other issues then personally i would just deal with it. its not uncommon.

Ok... Thanks, I'll wait it out and see what happens.

I thought being a test only first cycle my sex drive should be through the roof. Friends who have done the same cycle say theirs was but i guess everyone reacts differently.
