HRT question

[gorilla_boy]

I think that my doc is going to put me on HRT. I'm going to want to cycle again in January.

Am I right to assume that compounds other than test will not show up as free or total testoserone in the subsequent blood tests?

Compounds like deca, eq, dbol, anadrol, winstrol?

What will show up as test?

Will nolva, a-dex, l-zol, clomid etc screw with the shown test levels?

Of course they will, they all mess up different hormone levels.

Yeah bro like Bigandy said, they will all increase your test levels and otherwise screw with your bloodwork. Here is what you need to do: If going on HRT is the right thing to do, then go through the process with your doc, get your dosage right, then, when he feels like your on the program, and doesn't need to see you for a while, then do a cycle. Then go on your HRT dose after and get bloodwork done again.

I know it fucks with all kinds of hormones but how is it that a compound OTHER THAN test will show up as higher test levels esp. since it shuts down your HPTA? If it's true then what's deca dick all about and why the need for proviron etc?

Bro - it shuts down your HPTA BECAUSE it raises your test levels. The term "deca dick" relates to after your cycle since you are shut-down because deca raised your test levels during the cycle. Trust me on this. If you want an accurate test level for HRT purposes, you need to only be on your HRT test at the time. End of story. I know its not what you want to hear, but, thems the facts.....

I'm not looking for a heated arguement, I'm looking for logical discourse. I'm not saying that you're wrong.

It just doesn't make sense. If your test levels are raised, then where does a lack of libido on certain compounds DURING a cycle come from?

You say "trust me". Ok then, how do you know this?

 

[BigAndy69]

Gorilla boy, prolactin. It absolutely kills your sex drive. I know because I had high prolactin levels (blood tests) because of sleep apnea and it drestroyed my sex drive...nothing at all.

Also Deca post cycle will lower you test levels.

As little as 5mg of Dbol raises test levels quite a bit.

 

[gorilla_boy]

Now THAT makes sense.

Thanks guys.

Is there anything that won't raise test level aside from GH & slin?

I'm not looking for a heated arguement,

Don't worry - you wouldn't get one from me. Just spending a minute to try and help you out.

You say "trust me". Ok then, how do you know this?

18 yrs of personal experience with gear, thats all. Do you want a study?? Don't have one.

Nope. Again - you'll need to be only on your HRT dose when you take the test. Then you can go on.

 

[gorilla_boy]

That's cool, Man. Just seeing where you're coming from. There's a lot of parroting that goes on around these boards and people talking out of their asses. Your experience is valuable and I appreciate that. Thanks again.

the reason your test levels show high when on a cycle of Deca (or any other AAS) is because all AAS are based upon the Testosterone molecule. they are synthetic versions of Testosterone, therefore they show up on a blood test as Testosterone. this is also the reason your body thinks they are testosterone and shuts down its own natural production.

AAS are not, however, real testosterone because they have been chemically altered to add more or take away some anabolic or androgenic characteristics of real testosterone such as protein synthesis, oily skin, aggressiveness or desire to fuck. so, even though you may have a gram of synthetic, altered testosterone in your system you have very little real testosterone and you might not want to fuck.

did i really just write all that?
