Oxandrolone only cycle..

[PetrX]

Yes I know don’t do it etc .. different situation here .. I’m on Trt for life ( long story short had cancer and it nuked my system) . Have been off trt for 8 months and looking to get back into swing. Has anyone gone oxandrolone only for say 8 weeks? I have unlimited amounts of everything but don’t want to deal with water retention and injections yet lol . 25 mg twice a day , would that increase Libido for now until I go back on trt ?

Stats- 35 yrs old - 6’3 248 lbs body fat is currently at 13.2%

If you are going to do an oral only for any length of time, I would recommend Proviron . Peep the drug profile probably linked on the word "proviron" for exactly why, but in a nut shell: minimal (sometimes no) suppression, and beats down SHBG.

It’ll suppress what little T you do have.

Would be safe to assume if you’re “nuked” and have been on for any length of time, 8 months may be getting you back to who knows what as a baseline? Have you done labs to see what your total and free test is now? You can run whatever the fuck you want, without TRT or a strong PCT, you’ll most likely lose it once you come off. Var at 50 mgs a day has its own issues in addition to suppression. Lipids, blood pressure, kidneys and liver enzymes…there’s a reason most stick to 8 weeks or less.

Plenty of posts on here with guys doing Var only cycles, you certainly won’t be the first. Short term gains, why not run it when you’re back on TRT?

Shots and water retention? Seems like something else is missing in the story

You want an Anavar cycle only, follow these easy steps found here in the most documented Anavar only cycle of all time.

I do have Proviron . I’ll give that a refresh thanks 🙏

Yea just got my labs back Saturday .. my test levels were at 21 (350-850 range) .. they’re never going to recover ( have done labs twice a month for years) they va prescribes me 150 mg per week of Pfizer test and I have tons of it out away so eventually I’ll go back on .. when on test my levels go up to 900-1030 and I’ve had some water retention ( minimal but still) and my estrogen levels stay within normal and my diet has little to no effect.. it’s the holidays and I tend to travel back to Italy around this time for a few months so I rather not deal with injections etc since I won’t be doing labs . So I was curious about just running oxandrolone alone but another member posted about proviron which is probably a better option . I guess my main focus is ab boost in libido and mood now that I think about it lol

If your total test is at 21 then you need testosterone.
Why on earth would you not consider it?
If prescribed then you can travel with it.
Keep the dose down and you'll survive two months without labs.

Var, Proviron, etc. Neither are test which is what you need.

I just didn’t want to deal with injections right now ( I hate needles lol) I know I’ll have to go back on test injections but wanted to see if only var or proviron would be a good temporary for a few weeks. Have never taken anything other than testosterone

There are other methods for TRT apart from injections.

I’ve done an anavar only cycle. 50mg for 8 weeks. But my test levels were normal, and it didn’t make an ass hair of a difference.

Even if it could make such a difference in 8 weeks, anavar isn’t at all a long-term solution for TRT.

The answer is simple.

Get comfortable with injections.

Or...

Get comfortable with how you feel natural.

A few quick thoughts....

I'm assuming you are primary not secondary since you were already on the needle for life. If not, or if you are unsure, you might try PCT'ing or restarting with a SERM like Enclomiphene, clomid or nolvadex.

Gel is an option if you just don't want to do injections. Yes, the absorption rate is horrible at like 10%, but I guess if you apply enough, you would get to that 100mg equivalent per week level. I read somewhere that applying to the scrote has better absorption, but can not confirm, and that would seem to be problematic in other ways...

Oral test has similar problems to topical. Horrible absorption rate, and neither gel nor oral are widely available on the "alternative markets" we frequently shop for such things. Still, oral is an option as well.

Injection does not have to mean intramuscular. You can do TRT level doses subcutaneously. This is almost a nit. You could use luer lock syringes to draw with a larger needle and inject with a smaller, or just use insulin pins for both drawing and injecting.

Finally, and man, I am reluctant to suggest this, but it IS an option (albeit probably not very popular), you could use 4-andro as your "test base". This is available as oral or topical as well. Yes, I know "4-andro" is a P-word (prohormone) but there is a fair amount of good info floating around on it.

Get your HrT straightened out. It is the difference in healthy and not healthy. If your test is pharma it is directed as subcutaneous injection.

Anavar is not a very powerful drug. I know of 0 cases or readings on cases where Anavar supressed natural test production (to a major degree).
