Wanted to report a successful recovery as a 19 year old using steroids.

[Far from massive]

Glad to hear about your succesful recovery. The thing is no one that I have seen has ever posted that if you use steroids at 18-20 years old you will definately damage your HPTA. However the chance of that happening while your HPTA is still under construction is much greater than it is for someone whose HPTA is fully developed. Also with each subsequent cycle the chance of damage increases.

Really while I understand you post its somewhat like going on to a MADD (Mothers against drunk driving) website and reporting that you drank a dozen beers and drove home and did not cause an accident and kill or cripple anyones children...while that may have been the case it certainly is no indication that your actions were rational.

or without consequences.

Check back in 2 or 3 years and see if you can still say the same. Hopefully you can but there is no way to know if you have cheated yourself out of 1in or more of growth, if your future ED is related to doing a cycle at an early age. The warning and suggestions are not just for the known obvious and immediate side effects but also to help limit the possible future side effects or problems.

I have read post where people/kids come back 3, 6 or more months after a PCT and thinking everything is fine but now they are having problems. ED, itchy nips, gyno etc.

Like I said before best of luck to you.

PS,
Here you go, we see post similar to this almost daily and Ill guarantee you MOST people who have problems do not come back asking for advice or sharing.
