1st off- this could be answered by reading the stickies.....
2nd- what are you gonna take?
3rd- have your labs done 1st to know what your bp is starting out.
Most all AAS CAN make your bp go up. Doesn't mean it will go up.

Alot of good bro's on here with good post- read alot to learn......

Steroids do and will increase your blood pressure especially at higher doses and for extended cycles. Due to steroids ability to raise your red blood cell count and Hematocrit levels, steroids can cause blood pressure to rise significantly. I bought a blood pressure monitoring cuff and check mine daily. If you stay hydrated and watch your doses you should be fine. Remember , you build muscle by diet, training and more training. Slow and steady gains are the only way to go. I hope this response has been beneficial to you.

One good measure to keep in mind would be family history of bp problems. For me? My fam has bp issues throughout. Mine is excellent Bc of diet and training but if not for that I know I'd have issues too. And in my own experiences? Winstrol tabs did badddd things to my bp lol. First steroid I ever got my hands on and I ran it at 50mg ED for about.....5days and decided my bp being at 170/124 wasn't gonna fly so I discontinued and will never mess with that again. Currently running my first 'cycle' of dbol alone (3weeks in) at 25mg ED and my bp has just ever so slightly increased. Trial and error my friend, but just make sure you check it frequently and you won't be blindsided as I was. I mean it got so bad I was dizzy and weird feeling overnight. I happened to be at walmart and I said WTF lemme sit down at this bp machine in their pharmacy dept. Surprise!! No wonder I was dizzy. Live and learn. Be smart, and if something arises, discontinue use Bc it don't make a damn difference how big and strong u get if your ticker kicks out on u.

everyone above me summed it up well.

but I will add that when i ran deca, dbol, and test with no AI i was holding a lot of water and i gained a lot of mass rapidly... even though going in I was in as good a shape as anyone out there being a former endurance athlete my blood pressure on this cycle went sky high. it was a rookie mistake on my part to choose not to run an AI..

since then if i run anything aromatizing i always run some forma with it. and i don't have any bp issues on cycle. then again i am running low dosages and keeping cycle short which allows my body to recover when off

as a side caveat make sure BEFORE you run AAS your blood pressure is good.. if it isn't then you need to do some running/swimming and get that heart strengthened. do not go into a cycle with already high bp.

It depends on the person. The only way to know for sure is to get a home unit (they are cheap and affordable) and keep an eye on it.
