Gyno or not? + Test prop question

[fullboost]

Hey guys, started my first cycle today.

140mg Test prop EOD, 8 week cycle (500mg p/w)
Arimidex: 0.25mg EOD
HCG: 250iu 2x p/w starting week 3

PCT
Nolva + Clomid

Couple of questions.
My nipples are naturally tender, they've always randomly hurt, randomly been itchy etc so i'm concerned that if i do begin to show signs of gyno, i won't notice it, or on the other hand i'll react to symptoms which aren't there.
Has anyone else suffered the same issue? How have you been able to distinguish between the two?

Also Test Prop, from what i hear, is supposed to hurt like hell. However, considering this was my first pin i noticed no pain at all, a bit of discomfort if pressed on for the first few minutes, but its been a good 11 hours since i pinned it and still nothing.

Thanks in advance.

If your getting gyno you will know about it trust me

And pain depends on solvents used so I wouldnt worry too much about it being painless, count yourself lucky because some stings like a bitch

Okay thanks, i bought way over required amounts of nolva for PCT in case of gyno so i've got it on hand if needed, plus 4x the amount of adex actually needed (had to buy a whole pack!)
Another question, with prop as it's a short ester, when should i start noticing it kick in? I'm not expecting to rock up to the gym after the weekend and bench press a the weight of a baby elephant but it'd be useful to know when i should begin to notice.

For me I notice it in about 7-10 days although I run higher doses and pin ed, but I would like to think you will feel it in or around 3rd week at most

Thanks. Out of curiosity - how much do you run? I was advised 500mg p/w is a good amount of test for a first cycle, but i have enough to up it if i feel it is underdosed later on in the cycle.

Shot quality Prop, felt just the same Enan.

teste or even tesp will still take weeks to start to notice for most. teste hits its peek per dose at around day three.
it is not so much (kicking in) but more just giving it time to work its thing.

but I would say 3 or so weeks you shoul start to notice.
for me it takes like 4 or 5 weeks (ther than libido)

yes some feel pain others not so much.
I would not judge gear by amount of pain thats for sure.
well I mean if it was very painfull I would worry of course.

Thanks for the responses guys, was worried when it didn't hurt after all i had read, but it is supposed to be good gear and was bought abroad where it is legal + readily available.
