I actually get the same thing...no acne on cycle, but once I start PCT with clomid....wham! Red spots all over the chest, back, and shoulders. I just don't get it either
Usually not. I do run a low dose of Nolva but all Nolva does is keep estrogen from binding. An aromatose inhibitor stops estrogen from forming but it also fucks up your cholesteral levels.
I agree. If anything I would think the AAS would have the opposite effect and make the situation worse. needsize brought up an interesting point. Post cycle your hormone levels are in a state of imbalance, which could be a contributor to the acne post cycle.
You would be doing it in the name of SCIENCE ...So if you die from high cholesterol, it wont be in vain
LOL, I have always rationalized the cholesterol profile skews with the thought that my bp wont be as high from the tremendous amount of estrogen related water bloat one would be carrying w/o an aromatose inhibitor
my theory has always been that with even blood levels, your hormones are even, so no acne. But afterwards, your hormone levels are all over the place, which leads to acne. Just like being a teenager
This is correct. During a cycle you test levels are constantly high - thus no much fluctuation. But once you come off you drop significantly and then try to raise it thought pct. basically your hormone levels are like a yo-yo. This constant up/down is what causes the acne to appear
Quadsweep and Term are probably the most accurate. It's the swing in hormones that messes you up as far as acne goes.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT LIPID PROFILES WHILE ON THEY WILL GO BACK POST CYCLE. And then you have no worries.
There is a study that we've added to the Bjaarki Library at AnabolicFitness.com that would be good for you to read. In fact there are several added studies this month you may find interesting JA.
"Reversibility of the effects on blood cells, lipids, liver function and hormones in former anabolic–androgenic steroid abusers"
