Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I completed a 18 week cycle 5 weeks ago...I know some people say I need to be off for 18 weeks to be safe. I don't plan on going back on right away but was thinking about it say after 10 weeks off. What kind of tests do I need to have my doctor do to see if my body is ready to go back on?
Question about time off

Have your doc check your liver values. As far as the time off, I've been on cycle myself for at least 18 weeks. Today I am starting PCR and don't really know how long i'll take off. At least 4-6 weeks, they say take off as much time as you were on. Some say that, some say when you feel your own test levels are back up to par, go at it again. Balls start to drop and you get their size back etc. ! I don't even know what i'd say if i went to my doc. he'd probably spend the entire conversation trying to get me off gear rather than give me suggestions.
Yeah...I used HCG and the boys are already functioning nicely. My pct is coming along the best it ever has. I used clomid and tried unleashed and postcycle from protein factory...I can't say that any one thing did it for sure but my strength didn't even drop in all excercise and the ones it drop in it was very little. I've never felt this strong 5 weeks after using but as soon as I plateau i want to go back on.
Mods? vets?

What were your lipids and liver values like while on cycle? What did the cycle consist of?
If you saw poor lipids and elevated liver values for a prolonged period of time, I would get retested post-cycle and make sure that you see good values for a similarly prolonged period of time. You can't go through 18wk of shitty lipid and liver values and then wait 4wk post-cycle to see so-so lipids/liver values then test again at post-week and (hopefully) see good values and make the judgement call to go back on.
Assuming you didn't test, err on the side of caution. If you were on 17aas for a long while then assume the lipids and liver values weren't too great. If you were on deca/tren for a prolonged period then assume you will be suffering from their metabolites for a prolonged period of time.
Am I making any sense?

Your making complete sense. I typically get my blood work done for test level, as well as red and white blood cell count and liver enzyme levels. I am just making sure that I have all the right tests run. Last year after a 14 week cycle my levels were normal (back to pre cycel levels) after 8 weeks and my pct sucked. I don't plan on going back on before 10 weeks but i also didn't want to wait 18. Here is the jist of my cycle
1-3 weeks suspension 100mg ed
1-4 weeks of 50 mg dbol e/d
1-12 weeks of 750mg enthate a week
12-18 weeks of winny 50mg
14-18 weeks of tren (75mg) and prop (100mg) ed
1-3 weeks suspension 100mg ed
1-4 weeks of 50 mg dbol e/d
1-12 weeks of 750mg enthate a week
12-18 weeks of winny 50mg
14-18 weeks of tren (75mg) and prop (100mg) ed

Hey bro, I run long cycles like you. Time off is necessary for a few things but you need it to make solid gains that you are going to keep! I cycled too much and too long the previous 2 years and coming off was and continues to suck (anyone will tell you that).
Blood values get fucked up the more you use. Recovery is necessary, do more like 8 weeks. More would be even better but I know it is hard. Maintain PCT and be honest with your doc. Get hormone, lipids/liver function, etc.
I will say I have run 18-20 week cycles for the last 2 yrs with 6 weeks off and I am in good health but I am going to do things different. I am also, or was a pro athlete so that played a role!

I had to tell my doctor because of some medical problems I had with my lymphatic system...nothing related to gear but i had two surgeries and they asked specifically about certain drugs that could interfere with the drugs to put me under. I came clean because I didn't want to die from a bad drug interaction. My doctor agreed not to put it in my file and he is totally against me using but agreed to do my blood work when i need it and now I don't even have to see him..he'll just set up the appt for the nurse to draw the blood and they mail me the results. Becareful though because you don't want info realeased to your insurance that you use gear or you could lose coverage.
