Will 250mg Enanthate per week completely shut down HPTA?

I've read a lot of conflicting posts on this topic, and I'd like to get some closure here...

Yes..

YUM

Okay, I'm going with yes. If anyone disagrees speak now, or forever hold your peace.

you cannot say yes or no. it all depends on who you are. most people on this board know that theoretically, yes, you would get shut down off of 250 a week....but some are more resistant than others. i didn't get shut down off of 875 mg test/week, actually i came in larger amounts, and afterwards even 2 monthes out, suffered no side affects of diminished testosterone levels. so you won't know until you actually try it.

How do you know you weren't shut down on that amount of test???

I have taken low amounts and felt only a little bit of shut down, so I guess that would still be a yes.

What do you mean you "felt a little bit of shut down"? How do you know?

Unless you're having your test levels checked you have no way of knowing where they are.

I would think 250mgs/week of test will shut you down. That's why people don't bridge with test.

There aren't levels of HTPA suppression. Yout testosterone production is either shut off or not. 250mg of enanthate a week is just about a theraputinc dose of test. It will replace your endogenous testosterone production with an exogenous source. For most poeple it will be a good bit higher than thier natural production so they will get "bennifits" from it though not massive gains. With this exogenous source of testosterone there is no need for the body to produce it's own. This is done through feedback in the HPTA. The body senses adequate tesotsterone present in the blood thus it does not make any.

And Keep it beefy. Ejaculatory volume has nothing to do with natural testosterone levels. This is no indication of your endogenous testosterone levels nor is testicle size.

yes it will shut you down. the body naturally only produces roughly 3-8mg of test daily. do the math and that is 56mg/week on the average. so 250mg compared to 56mg is a huge difference. they will shut down.
