I had previously done 4 Test only cycles back in the late 1980's......no PCT back then except for my last cycle I did 2 injections of 5000 units of HCG a week apart......didn't really notice much difference but I always recovered completely in about 2 months anyway.
I'm obviously much older now and did a relatively long (20 week) cycle of Test and EQ (500 and 400/week respectively), AIFM throughout (along with Aromasin for a few weeks when I had a rash from the AIFM), HCG 5000iu spread over a week at weeks 8 and 16.
I am currently 6 weeks into PCT (6 weeks since last poke)......did 1000iu of HCG daily for 14 days after last stick, 100mg Clomid ed (starting 3 weeks after last inject) for 1 week and 50mg daily for the last 2 weeks.
In the past my recovery always seemed "linear".....meaning I had depression and libido loss for a few weeks and it slowly improved to normal ofer about 8-10 weeks. This time it seems that I am all over the scale as far as libido and erections, but mood has been completely fine (even with the clomid).
I'm just wondering if this is just age related or is it PCT related......at this point I'm not seeing the value of PCT except for mood stability (no depression). My libido seems to rise and fall (pun intended) on about a 6 day cycle: up for 2 days down for 4!
I have kept all of my gains so far, picked up a little water weight but I attribute that to cutting my AIFM dose in half post cycle. Appetite is more than while on and gym intensity is spot on.
Any insight appreciated, just wonder about others experience with cycles at different ages and with/without pct.
Damn that turned into a long post....sorry!
