Further you could also use low doses of a pct compound to keep you "running"

However because the low doses of proposed anabolics still hold a risk, it is now to be determined whether the risk outweighs the possible benefit of using said compounds. I am guessing that there will be gains, but those gains could easily be ruined if the hpta does shut down. Hmmm what to do... thanks for the post Marcus.
Using compounds what are less suppressive will have a lesser effect on the HPTA and will take longer for shutdown to occur, remember if you use enough of the compound for a long enough peroid even the weaker steroids will cause shutdown. You can also get injectable's what clear your system very fast, that's just ester related and you cant run low dose PCT compounds to keep your natural test running while using steroids. If we are talking about someone young who isn't fully developed yet I wouldn't advice any kind of steroids and I would tell them to wait till he is reached peak testosterone levels and fully mature.

It is also impossible for anyone to run loads of steroids of any length of time and not to be shutdown or to have a negative effect their natural testosterone production, I dont care what you have been told its a complete lie.
