Alright guys, I started a T-bol only cycle of 40mgs ed for 6 weeks. Here are my stats: I'm 5'10" & 185 lbs 33 yrs old. I've trained for 5-6 years & decided on a whim that was going to try this cycle as I heard it produces great results & is relatively safe if there is such a thing. My diet is decent as I understand the basic protein & caloric intakes needed for optimal training.
Here is my questions that I would appreciate some knowledgable advice on. First let me state that I started this cycle without a full knowledge of ALL the effects, results, & info that I probaly should have researched before doing this. It was a thought that I acted on kinda spontaneously with the help of a friend doing the same cycle (peer pressure). Since I started I researched a ton & have a better understanding of things now but I want to make sure I do everything properly since I'm 2 weeks into this already.
This will be my first & last cycle that I ever do - After reading things & reevaluating what I want from training I've decided AAS are not the route I want to go however I would like to finish my cycle. Dumb to start in the first place I know but want to make the best of my situation.
After reading tons of stuff on this site & reading comments from experienced guys I'm still a bit lost as everyone has different opinions regarding dosage, PCT etc. I have experienced no sides at this point & have gained about 2 lbs, good strength gains. I was ultimately looking for strength gains & LBM gains - nothing hardcore thus the reason for selecting T-bol.
Questions: After 5-6 weeks of cycle I was planning on running nolvadex 20mgs ed for 2-4 weeks. Some say no PCT required for T-bol because of its non-aromatizing properties - some say yes PCT is required. Is this a proper PCT
Question #2 - I've seen no change in sex drive at this point & have noticed testicular shrinkage a bit. Also had a difficulty with an erection the other day before the deed. Is this normal?
Obviously you are going to be shut down at some point from this cycle so I wanted to make sure these things were normal & that I will be able to restore things after the cycle by a proper PCT. ANY help or advice would be appreciated. Please refrain from flaming me but I'm willing to accept proper advice even though it may not be what I wanna hear.
