Cholesteral levels skyrocket on cycle!!?

[freakusmc]

Do anabolic steroids raise cholesteral levels? I am in week 13 of a 14 week cycle of 750 mg test, 800 mg eq ew, with 100 mg winny ed for the last 6 weeks. I just had a physical for a new job and I had serious health concerns. First off, as everyone assured me I passed the drug test just fine. Next, my blood pressure is a bit high 150/80.....Most concerning though were my cholesteral levels though my HDL levels that should be under 100 were actually 283! My LDL levels should be over 40, but instead they were at 9!!! I dont know of any family problems with heart disease, but since im 25 years old, 5'11", 225 lbs @ 10% bf, I would hope to be a little healthier!! Am I in just that bad of health, or will my levels be whack during cycle?

HDL is the 'good' cholesterol

LDL is the 'bad' cholesterol associated with heart disease.

The ratio between the two is used to determine the risk factor for MI.

I would not stress too much (just increases your BP).

I would have your BP and cholesterol checked when you have been off a cycle for awhile, it takes 3 months for your cholesterol levels to change.

Were you 10 hours fasting BTW?

What were your trig levels?

Anything else slightly abnormal?

get off the Winstrol - stanozolol, try fish oil caps, kyolic garlic with lechitin. i was hitting the var and cholesterol actually improved from 183 total to 168.

you have a confusion there. Check your papers.

HDL is the good. Should be 40 or higher. LDL is the bad and should be under 200.

My bad, got the hdl and ldl confused, however my bad cholesterol is still 283 and my good is 9. all my other levels were normal and yes, I fasted 10 hrs before.....

What were your HDL and LDL before you cycled? May have not moved much. You should have it checked before you cycle so you have a base to work off.

Omega 3s - Fish oil, policonasinol, fiber, oat bran caps, clean up your diet, increase cardio, stay away from orals.

I recently started a thread about WINSTROL & CHOLESTEROL just the other day:

...just out of curiousity, any chest tightness? ...shortness of breath? (maybe on the treadmill?)

IMO,
...I'd take an asparin a day
...take B12, B6, and folic acid (to keep your homocysteine levels down)
...and I'd take NIACIN (flush free) ...POLICOSANOL ...and REDYEAST RICE

and, as been asked, what were your triglycerides? total cholesterol?
...actually you should post your entire lipid panel

And I would also examine how many carbs and how many crappy carbs you are taking in per day. In addition to the gear - mostly stanozolol - messing with your lipids, you have the classic profile of a guy that eats very little fat and a ton of carbs.

If you are so inclined, you might want to try a low carb high fat diet for a couple months and watch those numbers turn around like you wouldn't believe.

Eat a ton of oatmeal and soluble fiber. This will clean your pipes out the natural way.
