For those who experienced testflu.

Hey
I guess having testflu in the beginning of a cycle is pretty normal. But for how long do you usually have it? My friend has been feeling like shit since his first shot with test prop 3 days ago.

pretty much the first week is the norm for me... i think its just due to new substances entering the body and the body just trying to figure out where the extra test is coming from.

HA HAAA, so you tellin me that this shitty cold i've got is cos i been on prop 3 weeks?

I never stop feeling like shit with Prop. I always end up discontinuing my cycle.

Fuck that, i'm gonna see it through, got 4 weeks to go yet! I've got my Lemsip, Covonia etc! I'll be fine!

Test flu can be avoid by starting at a low dose and going up from there each week. But most of us are into getting blood levels up right away through short half life esters or by the method of front loading. For me, no what compund of test it is, if I start high I usually shock my body into a weakened immune system most severely in the first couple of weeks then after raising immune function a little my body will stay at a low level immune function throughout the rest of the cycle. I've found that in order to avoid a weakened immune system entirely, I start at a low dose and gradually work my way up and down; pyramiding just like the oldschoolers.

Most steroid cycles regardless if there's the onset of "test flu" will result in a weakened immune system. It's just not normal to have 1000% of natural hormone levels circulating in the blood.

I think prop fucked my world up to. I went up to a gram of test a week (enanthate), but I had some prop in there too. I was fucked up bad for a few days, couldn't eat and couldn't lift.

Test flu sucks, I got it twice in the first 3 weeks of my test-cycle. I recommend drinking a lot of water and take at least 1g of Vit C/day.
