Without getting into a long dissertation, I'll get right to the point.
For the most part, what many people regard as PCT... is an illusion.
Fact: HCG is not a recovery drug.
HCG can be useful in getting the testicles out of an atrophied state. This is advantageous from both a cosmetic and psychological standpoint and it may help in allowing them to more quickly function normally. BUT, excessive HCG use can also be supressive and chronic use will actually delay recuperation. After extensive experimentation I am also of the contention that far less HCG is necessary than what is often prescribed. People have been using dosages recommended to induce pregnancy. 500 IU.s for two days is usually enough to correct atrophy. Less is better than more.
Fact: Nolvadex is site specific -- therefore, very limited.
The stuff is good (not great) for preventing gyno. If you're super prone to gyno, it's good to have on hand. But it's no guarantee. It's also a lousy anti-e. And as far as it helping in recuperation, well, I'm just not convinced. It lowers IGF. It hinders gains if used during a cycle. It's also a dick killer for a lot of guys. It seems to me that if you don't get gyno during a cycle, using Nolva afterward is closing the barn door after the horse ran away. And of course, I have to bring up the fact that in the 60's and early 70's nolva didn't exist, and nobody had gyno. People have to understand that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Be judicious in your usage. Don't fuck yourself up and expect a drug to fix everything. At any rate, Nolva ain't it.
Fact: I was WRONG!!!
Well, kinda. I used to think that Proviron was the best choice as an anti-e because it helped with libido at the end of a cycle, had few side effects and lowered SHBG. But Proviron is a bit more suppressive than I realized and the other problems are easily corrected with the use of "Unleashed".
As anti-aromatases go, I believe low dose Arimidex is the best bet. BUT BE CAREFUL. A-dex is powerful and can lower e too much (which is what I didn't like about it before). 1/4 mg EOD is usually plenty, so it really isn't that expensive considering how little you need.
A-dex isn't a great recovery drug though. Some people will argue it's useless PC, but there's always a chance for a disfavorable T/e ratio so I do believe it can be useful PC.
Fact: Have I forgotten to mention...CLOMID SUCKS ASS!!!
(Please, dont post any of those same 4 studies that everyone posts that's supposed to prove Clomid works.)
Okay, anyone familiar with my work knows this is an ongoing theme with me. For the record, Clomid does help some people. (Even though in some cases I think it really doesn't do anything, they just think it does. But I'll give them the benefit of the doubt). The thing is, Clomid is an estrogen and whenever you take it you have to hope it will occupy receptor sites that otherwise would be taken up with aromatized estrones. That is REALLY, REALLY chancy. If it backfires, you wind up feeling like a 12 year old girl with her first period. And when you cum, it's like, HERE IT IS! HERE IT IS..........drip.
Some people claim increased ejaculate from Clomid but I feel that's wishful thinking or maybe they're among the lucky ones. At any rate, CLomid may actually delay recovery.
Fact: Bridges are just extensions of a cycle.
I have to laugh when people say they work. Yeah, "Methadone" works for heroin addicts too. You're just replacing one drug with another! If you bridge, you're suppressed, not recovered.
Fact: Time heals all wounds.
When you come right down to it, time is what brings about recovery, no matter what you use. And what's most important is how you utilize that time with proper rest, proper training, proper eating and proper supplementation.

(I'll make it quick)
Seriously, this is why I developed "POST-CYCLE" www.proteinfactory.com It isn't a cure. It isn't a replacement for medical attention. But it will cover the bases to help you recover faster. Here's why:
Five ingredients to clean and detoxfy the liver.
Three ingredients to normalize estrogen levels.
Four ingredients to boost libido.
And a nice combo of ingredients to prevent impotence.
That's a pretty good deal IMO.
Okay, commercials over.
At any rate,
PCT should not be an afterthought. What good is gaining 20 pounds if you're just going to lose them a month later? Don't just look forward to your next cycle, look past it. What will you keep at the end of it all? And at the end of it all, that's all that matters.

etulant little insults about how I have a little mind is just childish bullshit and not tolerated here. Give your argument. Stete your opinion. But try and stick to the facts.
