How much does giving blood (~500 mL/ 1 pint) lowers hematocrit ?

[Oxbow]

Hi everyone, going into my 10th cycle, I use AAS for now 15 years and I am very experienced. In my life I am a chemist and I know a lof of stuff regarding various AAS subjects.

The ONLY side effect that scares me on cycle is high hematocrit.I think doing a cycle without donating blood is pure madness because the risk of stroke will be very very high.The best solution is to give blood. I've spent days looking everything I could find on the net. Not a single thread/study tells how much the hematocrit goes down after one blood donation.

I was at 55% after only 5 weeks. I gave blood. You are supposed to lose what ? 0.5% ? 1% ? 5% 10% ?Looks like nobody knows.



Thanks if anybody has an opinion on that.

Also :

- we have to take iron supplementation otherwise giving blood will kill your iron levels
- grapefruit is a myth and does not do anything for hematocrit
- giving blood is the only real way to make the hematocrit going down
- the only serious side effect of steroids, the only one that can kills you is high hematocrit. Thick blood is actually the cause of all the cardiovascular issues including high blood pressure.

there is no formula ive seem 500ml blood = lowers hematocrit x% and everyone is different
