My gear was bunk or underdosed =/...what to expect now?

[6Tom6Tom6]

Well this was my second cycle. My first was test prop and eq and i had great results. My second(this cycle) was just test e. I wanted to try a different test to see how i was with it. I received ZERO gains. Before this cycle i was receiving what i would call average gains....but pretty much as soon as i started the test e my strength went down, then back up, then down, and now im working to get it back to what it was before i started(about a 10lbs difference now, no biggie at all). I don't know why it would even do that if it was underdosed if my diets fine and i'm taking in about 240 grams of protein a day.

Now, here's the thing....i received all the sides though....a little hair shedding, the acne on the back and a little on the shoulder area, increase in masturbation =D, and the testicular atrophy =(. This means the gear was either a bad batch or underdosed i'm guessing. So, on to my questions. I was originally going to do 12 weeks of the test e. I'm just finishing week 10 and i think i'm just going to stop. Why not, right? My questions are....

QUESTION 1- Should i wait the 14 days to start my PCT or just start it now?(its been 7 days since my last pin of test e)

QUESTION 2- Will i receive the small strength loss coming off like i did after my first cycle? My first cycle my gear was great, i got awesome gains and i only lost a minuscule amount of it after PCT and months of being off the gear afterwards. But since this stuff was either shit or underdosed(most likely underdosed) will i receive that small amount of strength loss if the gear didn't do anything? Or will i jump right back to how i was before i started the cycle? I was making little gains but they were still steady gains. And now that i haven't pinned as i usually would have i actually feel pretty dam good in the gym.

So what should i do guys and gals? and what are your predictions? Thank you for reading. STAY STRONG =)

if you can id go get blood work to see where your test levels are as well as some other key factors to see how shutdown you may/may not be

Your test may or may not have been bunk or underdosed, but there are other things that can affect gains. Diet and training gave to be on point. I'm not saying they weren't but its always a factor.

Bloodwork is the only way to determine what's going on, but for now PCT just as you would if you gained 15 lbs.

Do a PCT. ANd PCT should start at the end of a cycle, not 2 weeks later. As for why you got sides and no gains, that can be ,any things, most likely training related. . But most second cycles aren't as dramatic as the first.
