    Question for the middle aged guys ?

    Just finished my first cycle 14 weeks of test E 500mg. Feeling GREAT and made pretty good progress. Really thinking about cruising instead of getting off. Any thoughts ?? I'm 41

    Depends... how were you feeling before your cycle? Did you go on only for gains or were you displaying other low test symptoms? TRT is for life so as long as you're good with that then just do it the right way, meaning, let your cruises last long enough without getting itchy for a blast.

    Yes was tired all the time blamed it on allergies. Now I feel great 21 again that's 1 reason I ran it for 14 weeks allergies are acting up but at least I'm not tired all the time.

    Bro,
    First off your 41 just finished your 1ST cycle ever!?
    Why would you want too stay on....Pretty much garuntee that you WILL end up on therapy.
    Im 42 have several cycles behind me......At our age its touch and go wether we recover our natural test or not.

    So the long and short Im getting at give it a few weeks for the test too clear ,Go see your Doc and get blood work

    If you can't get it legally it is a lifelong commitment that is outside the law, which is something to consider, Mr Mupfo.

    I hope your Doc visit pays off. It ought to.

    did you get blood work to establish a baseline before you cycled?? I did and my natural test was in the 300's and that was before I even touched gear at age 30.

    I think you'd be a fool if you didn't stay on... lol. Go see your doctor, get some bloodwork done & monitor yourself... you'll be fine. Good luck, bro!!

    I think you're doing the right thing by staying on. Age wise, you're a good candidate for this and especially if you don't want kids, why not? It's just taking a head start on what is going to be something you'll need soon enough anyway...

    You gonna cruise at a TRT dose of 250 mg per week? Then later blast your way all the way back up to 500 mg week for your second cycle?

    Sounds pretty freakin safe to me. But like the others said, you are prolly gonna be on at least 250 mg per week for life once you start this.

    One of the ideas behind the blood work is to see how much test your nuts are making naturally. If you go in for the test while using 250 mg per week then it is not going to measure your natural levels. The only way to determine your natural levels is to go in while you are completely off geer.

    On the other hand, if your natural levels are already so low that you feel like shit, then you prolly need to be on for life anyway, so why not just stay on as you have planned?

    Think it takes about 21 days to clear your system.....but if you have been on for a while I am thinking you would be suppressed. You would have to complete PCT and then go get tested.

    I'm on trt, and had to have blood work done for my doc. It was two weeks after my last blast of 200mg, and my test level came back at 23. My doc has me on test e. The pharm had screwed up my dosing instructions and had me on 200mg every two weeks. So if you wait about two,- two n half weeks to have blood done you should be bottomed out.
