Test Dick ... ???

[houseofpain]

I've notice on my last couple cycles that when my test dosages were at about 1000-1250 ml per week (split up in twice weekly dosage), I've started experiencing weak erections, (like what you would expect post cycle).

During my last test cycle, adding 20mg of Nolva per day seemed to resolve the issue for me. But what kind of imbalance am I running into here? (I thought that much test per week would make it nearly impossible "not" to attain rock solid erections)... ?

Just as a side note, after the cycle and normal clomid follow up for 3 weeks, I'm not having any problems at all with attaining wood. So my normal test production seems to be working as expected.

prolactin levels are elevated get them checked, if so try bromo,dostenex,
or deprenyl,no experience with any of those meds, but what i've read
those three are the key to lower them,do a search and see what comes up,peace beotch!!

If nolva helped you are probably also getting some estrogen feed back I did when I went up to a gram. I did what femara I had left and then doubled the arimidex I was taking and was like granite all over

My guess would be estrogen feedback. You can get that from 1250ML's!!! a week!!! J/K - I'm assuming you mean mgs... If lowering the doses isn't an option, what about adding prov. to the cycle?

BTW - if that's you in the avatar, solid work bro!

Same thing here. Contrary to popular belief, excess test has an adverse effect on libido. It's sort of like the law of diminishing returns but slightly different. Too much estrogen decreases your sex drive by binding to test receptor sites, which creates an excess of SHBG. SHBG binds free test in a way that makes it unavailable to receptor sites in the balls. Test aromatises into estrogen. For test to produce "libido enhancing effects", it must be kept in the "free" form in the bloodstream. Bound test is not able to be picked up by test receptors on cell membranes.

Simple solution = anti-aromatase (ie arimidex).

How much arimidex should I use? And when should I start, when the sides start or throughout the cycle?

You should have started yesterday. Use .5mg ed or 1mg eod throughout your cycle. I cant believe you're using over a 1gm of test without an anti-e.
