Explain to me what really is HPTA.

[Counterstrike]

is Hpta your test level in the body? everyone uses the abbreviation but never the exact spelling. I always read that winny or dbol or primo etc... supresses your HPTA if this is your test level in the body then i have this question if winny really supresses it how different, bad or good is it from taking test for cycle? is one more dangerous than another or will one bring out side effects or problems you would of naturally have had eventually but just speed it up? thanks

As far as suppression, it is the same as Test or even Deca..negative feedback mechanism. the reason one takes clomid or HCG or nolvadex (per llewellyn) is to jumpstart the axis again..otherwise you have a long wait and crappy side effects to deal with. Winstrol is harsher on the liver.
