By the end of the third week you should see a difference in your body,especially the upper body. A liittle test wont hurt but you will get bad side effects from that and might need some nolvadex witch will help with the estrogen conversion and it will also help to get your own test production back going. i have done EQ alone before and it worked good and not any bad side effects. My body likes to convert test to estrogen so i cant use a big dose,500mg a week at the most.
