    you have test, doing a test only cycle of putting more test in isnt going to do anything. You are low on the enzyme that converts test.
    so a lack of dht is what downregulates the enzyme?

    no, doing a tren only cycle downregulates the enzyme. Tren does NOT aromatize nor convert with 5ar.

    so when he did a tren only cycle, he stopped producin test. Since test is what converts with 5AR, there wasnt any conversion going on. When things arent used in the body, most of the time they go away; same concept here. The tren didnt convert, he didnt have much test converting, so that downregulated the enzyme. 5AR is tissue specific, meaning its where it needs the DHT. Since there was no conversion, the enzyme started to go away. When he did his PCT, his test was great cuz none of it was converting, or very little. Thats why his num are high and yet still has issues.

    so its the lack of the use of the 5AR that downregulates it.

    gotcha, sounds exactly like the loss of leydig cells without LH
    crazy how its an enzyme that goes away
    i wonder that if test was eliminated from the system, if the aromatize enzyme would also downregulate
