High Test E Only PCT Help...

[hvylftr]

First a few specs:

29 y.o., 6' tall, 230 lbs, 17% bf., been working out for 8 years on and off. Heavy for the last year.

I have done a test only cycle before when I was about 23. It was with test cyp and a fairly low dose (250mg/wk for 10 wk). I didn't feel any side effects and my results were moderate. I did not use any PCT. I guess I was young, dum and full of natural testosterone.

I am planning another cycle and am very excited. I will definitely be more prepared this time around. Since my early twenties my testosterone levels have decreased substantially (Decreased sex drive and inability to gain LBM)
and I know I will need not only a higher dose for good results but also a good pct to get my boys working again. This test only cycle will also let me pinpoint the source of any side effects.

Please give me some feedback on the following cycle/pct. I have been doing alot of research regarding pct and it has left my head spinning. I have prepared the following with what I have learned here on the boards.

Wks 1-10 - Test E 750mg/wk

Question: I can't afford nor do I have access to arimidex, I know I should use .5 to 1mg of it daily throughout this cycle. Can I substitute Nolva in place of arimidex in this cycle? If so, how much daily throughout cycle?

PCT (Started Approx 7-10 days after last injection)

1,000 IU's HCG 3x/wk (mon/wed/fri) in combination with 20 mgs Nolvadex ED for a total of 3 weeks. Then, discontinue HCG and continue with 20 mgs Nolavdex ED for an additional 2-3 weeks.

Question: Should I start HCG during cycle with such a high dose of test? If so, how much and when.

Thanks so much.

I just found out that proviron could be used instead of arimidex. I cannot afford 100mg/d throughout this cycle. Any suggestions?

Forget about the Proviron. It's useless as an aromatase inhibitor and has nowhere near the same effect as Arimidex.

You might as well run the cycle for a full 12 weeks or shorten it to 8 weeks.

For an 8 week cycle, I would recommend including Clomid during PCT and/or increasing the HCG dosage to 1,500 IUs if you do experience significantly noticable testicular atrophy.

For a 12 week cycle, I would recommend using the mid cycle protocol of 500 IUs HCG ED and 20 mgs Nolvadex ED for 7-10 days consecutively. Then use 1,000 IUs HCG 3x/wk (mon/wed/fri) in combination with 20 mgs Nolvadex ED and 50 mgs Clomid ED. Then, discontinue HCG and continue with 20 mgs Nolvadex ED and 50 mgs Clomid ED for an additional 3 weeks.

I'd highly using an aromatase inhibitor such as Arimidex during this cycle.
