cycle pre.bloodwork

[Bones14]

I have done 1 cycle last fall 2014. It was a basic 500mg test e a week. With 4 week standard pct.

Post bloodwork 6 weeks after last pin showed recovery to be fine with levels in range testosterone at 599

This time I'm thinking about running the same cycle
Age 31
Cycle 500 mg test e week for 12 weeks
Ai is adex.
Pct clomid and nolva


But pre bloodwork came back and I'm a little concerned
Testosterone 392. Seems low
LH 4.6
FSH 4.1
Estradiol 6.3 seems low.

My moods feel good sex drive is UP!!
What's everyone thoughts? On pre bloodwork

When bloods were drawn I was cutting eating 2100k and was on a keto diet. I just ended that 2 days ago and will do 2 weeks maintenence calories before I began to lean bulk for next year. My question is could the keto diet skew the results. For my e2 being that low I feel great. No way it's 6.2 and now I'm wondering if I should use an AI at the beginning of the cycle or let e2 levels rise a bit.

You blood work you got 6 weeks after your pin gave you a false reading. You need to wait 4 weeks after your PCT to get blood work done because otherwise the PCT drugs will still be in your body and give the blood work a false result.

The PCT you ran after your cycle was not near sufficient. That's why your current testosterone levels are on the low side. The 2 SERM PCT is very old school and not optimal at all.

The body actually grows best with low estrogen levels. Your estrogen levels are great. You want them to be in the low-normal range. You should use the AI throughout your entire cycle and PCT.

You are safe to start your next cycle but this time - run a much better PCT afterwards.

[FONT=wf_segoe-ui_normal]aromasin 12.5mg every other day *A much better AI then arimidex because it is a suicide AI so there will be no estrogen rebound when you discontinue usage*[/FONT]

Thanks
I do have armasin and can use that. For the pct I'll have to check it out

I think its still the SERMS from the PCT that gave you the false impression of high test

if you abuse steroids your HPTA will be damaged as you get older..

at 31 your T levels are decent and you can work with that. i like your LH and FSH levels too. just remember if you continue abusing steroids you will be on TRT before you know it.

The overall cycle idea is good, but you really need to improve your PCT, especially now that you are a bit older than before. Remember, the better the PCT, the more gains you will be able to keep, and the smoother will be the recovery. So you should never cut corners there, and make the PCT as complete as possible. The Perfect PCT procotol is the way to go here.

Also, aromasin would be the better option for the following reasons:

1. Aromasin is a suicide inhibitor, so there will be no estrogen rebound once you stop taking it. Meanwhile, this estrogen rebound is well possible with arimidex, since it is not a suicide AI.


2. Arimidex will stress your lipids by increasing the levels of LDL cholesterol (the bad one), whilst aromasin will increase the levels of HDL (the good cholesterol).


3. Aromasin will increase your IGF-1 production by up to 25%, which is very good for muscle growth and recovery, which is not the case with arimidex.

Muskate nailed it......you ran post cycle bloods too soon. The main thing now is that your test levels are in the normal range and you feel good. No sex drive issues. There is no reason to be concerned if you are not feeling any symptoms of low test. Just remember to do a much more thorough PCT this time so you can recover better.
