lol, this debate has been going on for years now. That was Fonz, not Ulter, who was the big dbol bridge advocate, and wrote many posts on the subject, by the way.
I think results will vary in many cases. Age of subject, dosages used during cycle, and length of cycle will always be the big factors in HPTA recovery. The body is always fighting to maintain homeostasis. IMO 10 mg dbol will NOT "shut you down". I also think the body can very well be "tricked" but only for a short period of time.
Lastly, if you are curious, try it. Take into account all the other factors (age, cycle length, dosages, your normal recovery, etc.) and go for it. Experiment and get your bloodwork done. You can get a total testosterone test done for less than $40 and keep it off your medical records through privatemdlabs.com.
if 10mg won't shut you down, then what is the point of taking it as a bridge? i think it would do nothing for you if the HPTA stays full throttle. also why not take beastdrol 10mg? or another oral? what makes dbol so special in this case?
me thinks it could be water retention confusing people into thinking they are keeping their gains.
I am playing devils advocate here but i am leaning towards this being a bad idea unless you are planning on going on TRT anyway. for people who cycle it sounds like an unnecessary gamble. you can keep most of your gains with a good PCT and hard work after cycle. i know cause I 've done it every cycle.
