Advice for a newbe?

mattw_70 · 19-Oct-2011, 03:34 PM

My apologies in advance for the long post, but I'm lookin' for advice/info. on a few different points. I'm a 40 y.o. male diagnosed with low test. several months ago. My doc gave me test. testosterone cypionate. 200mg q 2 weeks. Not surprisingly it really improved my life in pretty short order- especially my workouts. My first labs showed my free test. on the low side of normal so the doc was happy, and has denied my several requests for a dose increase. I resigned myself to taking matters into my own hands. I got a 10mL vial of Pfizer 200mg/mL from a pharmacist buddy of mine ... one time deal until I could go online. For the past 8 weeks I've been using 500mg/wk, and I've been thinking I'd probably go for another 8 weeks or so.

I was having fantastic results with the Pfizer test.- crushing workouts, energy, Libido, and some of the best sleep I've had in years. The most recent test. I got I'm not so sure about though. I bought 2 vials of test and am wondering if it at best it might be underdosed. The bottles and boxes have lot #, exp. dates, holograms, and look otherwise legit, but the metal caps on the vials spin without much effort at all. And, I don't feel nearly as good.

Just in case I've since ordered more test. , as well as a couple vials of equipoise as I'm curious as hell. I'm thinking that after I finish my cycle I'll probably scale-back and address my low-t with 200mg/wk. I'm curious what PCT will look like for a guy who will continue to supplement with low dose test. to keep his levels normal. Are all post-cycle drugs hard on the liver? This is something I need to be careful about as I have some issues in this dept..

Although I'm completely new to anabolics, I'm a nurse so I'm not totally out of my depth. I have a firm knowledge of the endocrine system, pharmacokinetics, etc.. And although I've been living with hep. c for a number of years, aside from elevated ast/alt I'm completely asymptomatic.

Any help?

matt I edited out the sources. If you can take pics we can put this in the Fake Gear section and then you would be g2g.

Also ment to tell you matt that on TRT/HRT you dont do PCT. Reason is cuz your still gonna inject test after your cycle. It all goes back to the fact that your bod just does not produce enough test so in reality you are permantly shut down. So there is nothing to start back up. I had the same question when I first started TRT.
