too soon?

[snowblowjoe]

My first cycle lasted 11 weeks and now I am doing 4 weeks of pct. Is there anything harmful or dangerous where is if I go starting right back up on a cycle after my pct is finished? Common sense tells me it would be better if I waited a little bit but I'm wondering what the science or experience says

[swm1972]

General rule of thumb is time on cycle + time on pct = time off. So a 12 week cycle, 4 weeks pct = 16 weeks after pct before cycling again. I think breaks are a good idea, but its easy for me to feel that way being on hrt year round and throwing a cycle in whenever I want to.

To answer your question, yes. It's way to soon jumping back on right after pct. What is the point of pct? To reestablish your natural testosterone production. Right after pct you are just 'getting' there. The days immediately following the end of pct your not done and ready to go again. I'd wait a minimum of 10-12 weeks if it were me. Jumping right back on is setting yourself up for a hormonal train wreck in the future.

Can anyone justify what I am probably going to do anyway?

[JohnnyVegas]

Why get your natural production going again if you plan on immediately shutting it down again?

I hope someone knowledgable will chime in on whether what you are doing is any more healthy than blast and cruise.

[snowblowjoe]

I hope so too. I thought pct would give my body a break get it back to normal before I start again. That's why I did pct

if your doing it anyway then why even ask

and if thats how you intend to continue cycling then personally I wouldnt bother even coming off

[ghettoboyd]

if you where smart you would go see your doctor and have blood work done to see where you are at before attempting another cycle imho...but im guessing your going to reclessly jump back on so good luck and i look forward to your "i started another cycle to soon and fuked myself up, what do i do?" thread...

,, I am getting my blood work done before I cycle. And I'm asking because my mind isn't made up yet, but if knowledgeable members said it's not that big a deal its like blasting and cruising then I would definitely do it

[gixxerboy1]

blasting and cruising does have a long term effect.
i wouldnt recommend jumping right back on. Just becuase you finished pct doesnt mean everything has returned to normal. It typically takes months for everything to go back to normal

i didnt say it not a big deal

if your going to diaregard the time off and have no concern for long term health which you dont if you go back on then id stay on

stop trying to twist my words to justify it

and bloodwork straight after pct wont give you a true answer the pct can influence levels for next couple weeks

[snowblowjoe]

If I do my blood work and everything is fine is there any reason why I shouldn't start back up?

What time frame are you talking about? How long after PCT are you going to get it checked?

[snowblowjoe]

As soon as my pct is complete I will get bloodwork within the following week

[gixxerboy1]

As soon as my pct is complete I will get bloodwork within the following week

that will not be accurate. You will still be effected by the pct meds. You need to wait about 4 weeks for accurate labs

Not that I recommend it but I finished a 12 week cycle (my first) followed by 4weeks pct and jumped right back on.. currently test p 150mg eod and I'm prob gonna add decca in a little... I'm not recommending it but ur not alone if u do lol... (ill prob get flamed for this post) but I do realize ill prob be on trt after all is said and done... well c but I have a addictive personality so ill prob blast and cruise from here on out... if your going to jump back on just be ready for the consequences that come with the abuse of aas

[warmouth]

Man, I wouldnt risk it. I am no vet, but natural production is WAY more important than administered production for life. Its just 2 or 3 months. Whay not just wait and avoid the possible consequences? Just my 2 cents anyways.

[swm1972]

If that was your plan you should have just never even came off. Total waste of pct and time doing things like you plan.
