The Basics = your cortisol levels will be elevated after a cycle, due to the supression during cycle. It will happen and there's really nothing you can do about that, but follow a good PCT regime and use some GH as well.

Cortisol is a product of stress. Basically your body catabolizes muscle , the liver uses the aminos to utilize glucose for energy so your brain will have fuel to work while unbder stress. Normally cortisol is highest in the morning so what you were talking about the before bed snack thread would be good , maybe add some sugars at night too... it really depends on what your situation is.

Elevated cortisol is not a good thing.

After seeing the thread between jkurz and jenetic , his cortisol levels MAY be elevated due to him takes AAS and not doing PCT and having let the situation ride for a long time. so the cortisol remain high because nothing was done to increase androgen levels.

Who won 2 out of 3 in the ALI - Frazier saga? All I have to say is "The Thrilla in Manilla"

what do tou guys think about elevated cortisol levels with high test levels

 

[JKurz1]

My problem stems from supressed test, incorrect pct (I was ignorant, I know..) and overtraining.........I'm on HRT now for 30 days, followed by a solid pct and bang, my next cycle......hoping everything turns out right!

According to Jenetic , this doesn't happen as there is a balance between androgens and cortisol , which seems to be like a "DUH" . Makes total sense since cortisols function is to metabolize muscle for energy

 

[wellbilt]

my recent blood work says differently my test levels were high as were my cortisol levels

Post your blood work and ask him (Jenetic) to interpret

[JKurz1]

My cort levels weren't that high......more like 26 or 27, but I havent touched anything in a year which is why I've been so fucked lately and not knowing what was going all made it all the scarier....coupled with the fact the my wbc and rbc were low sucks....just hope it's not serious and we have it under control.

Hey wellbilt and JKurz1. I can tell ya that high cortisol can happen with high test levels. I my test was 1400 and cortisol was 30.1 mcg/dl, have not talked to doc yet. I think this may give me some insight why I have always recovered poorly. Did you guys ever get your cortisol straight?

 

[jay1]

You guys need Relacor.


j/k

Infact I'm going one of those right now. But the test is collection of urine for a 24hour period. But there's another test where the doctor injects a chemical in you and the cortisol should elevate drastically.
