Cycles safe for kidneys

[Andrew0409]

I had some issues with my Kidney around 7-8 months ago. I haven’t had any issues and have been completely off gear since. Kidney functions are with normal last I did a check up 4 months ago.

I wonder if I should jump on a light cycle in a few month. What would be some safer steroids for the kidney?

I’m no expert, that said I hope you take this very seriously gear or not. If you haven’t seen a nephrologist DO. If you smoke your kidneys it’s a slow countdown to zero function and getting another one in the us is hell, after you get 1 you’ll be watching out for the new problems. Diabetes, cancer from anti rejection meds, constantly getting labs, and definitely NO LIFTING…EVER. you really need(imho) to wait 12 months with a nephrologist oversight before doing this bro. If you got a bad report from a GP you can get a good1 soon after but that doesn’t mean damage wasn’t done. A kidney specialist would be the best bet for the true picture of how you really are. I know that’s not the answer you’re going for

I agree with Sig; with that being said, there are many factors that can “affect” kidney function. One of the biggest factors is the intensity of your workouts. My doctor was scared when he saw that my function was slightly out of range and we monitored them for a year straight with no change, it came down to the intensity of my workouts. I had suggested that to him at the beginning when he was worried but he didn’t think that was the case until a year later. However, kidneys are no joke, so make sure to do ampule testing

 

[swoldier]

Yes you are right about that. I just had a biopsy done yesterday on mine because my nephrologist isn’t sure what’s going on.

I would just do low dose testosterone. My kidneys were bad when I did high doses. I think tren was the hardest on them. I had blood in the urine on the molecular level. Years later the doctor said my kidneys looked fine.

 

[Andrew0409]

Definitely not running tren again, that messed me up for sure. Along with orals.

If I do run a cycle, it would probably be 400-500mg test and monitor my kidney throughout. Maybe eventually 600-750mg ew.

 

[Andrew0409]

Yeah, I will do another test soon before I do anything.

 

[swoldier]

What is your GFR?

 

[Andrew0409]

I honestly don’t know. I’m living in Italy and my Italian is basic still. I just went to get a check up and was told I everything was normal now. I assume i’m not doing terribly or else they would have had be do a biopsy by now.

 

[swoldier]

Oh ok. GFR is Glomerular filtration rate that doctors here use to tell you how well your kidneys are working. Yes if something was serious they would let you know!

hi, apparently I m on the same page. Been on gear for straight 6 months, 500mg per week and now PSA level up to the roof. Going to see a specialist soon but my question is: what’s the relationship btw test and kidneys? I mean, why test affects so badly kidneys even in the short term?

 

[Bigmurph6]

It could be preexisting and gear makes it worse faster or it could just be from the testosterone itself compounds passing through the liver and kidneys definitely have an effect even some of the safest in moderation things usually aren’t bad but using above moderation anything is going to effect almost everything your hormones your prostate your kidneys your liver your cholesterol your sexual function so much more testosterone being our main hormone when we mess with the HPTA system it throws alot of different things in the body off especially in higher doses.

Im sorry to hear about your psa but they do have many treatments nowadays I wish you the best brother

 

[Andrew0409]

Test doesn’t directly cause kidney damage. It’s the BP that’s hard on the kidneys.
