Please help with some info about anabolic steroids and protectors

[Angelo_47]

hi there guys
tired of going to the gym and not building muscle I have been injecting test for …let’s say 6 months. 2ml (or 500 mcg) per week. FANTASTIC !!!

Since then I started developing issues with prostate first (going overnight to the toilet up to 4 times), boldness and God knows what’s going on my body right now…

I read Test would ultimately affect liver, kidneys and heart. But how can I protect (limit the damages) from that ?

I m taking Finasteride 1 mg for the boldness, and 5mg for the prostate but then? any suggestion it’s appreciated as I m really lost !!

cheers Angelo

Welcome. How old are you? Do you have any kids? Do you want them?

500 a week for 6 will ultimately cause issues a lot of places.

I would drop down to 200 a week. PCT, Or go see an endocrinologist as you will possibly need trt or need assistance jump starting your natural production.

I would never ever recommend 500mg of test for that long.

Are you taking anything for estrogen? When was the last time you had labs done?

 

[Ominous]

As stated. Did you get bloodwork before, and during? And then you will need it after.
Without having bloodwork there is no way to know how your body as reacting to what you are doing to it.
Age, weight, height. Goals for this “cycle”?
We need more info.

Welcome I agree with those before me this sounds like you started using the juice with no research involved.

 

[Angelo_47]

I’m 47. 1 kid and not more kids in the future.
I knew 500 mg for a lot but…well…you know…

Prostate looks working good now but still my question is there: even dropping to 200 a week in long term I might expect issues to liver, kidneys etc right ? how to protect myself ?

 

[Angelo_47]

…sorry forgot: why are you mentioning estrogen ??? never took anything else besides test

 

[NeuroRN]

500 is a supraphysiological dose. (Above what’s normal for your body) which is where you will run into trouble long term.

First things first. You need labs ASAP. ASAP. ASAP.
Some test will convert to estrogen and cause lots of problems, in guessing it’s high and if high enough you’re talking blood clots, heart attack and stroke.

We here at UGM preach harm reduction and safety. So I’m going to shoot you straight. If you don’t know you need to monitor estrogen when taking 500mg of test a week, you don’t know NEAR enough to be taking test. You need to drop your dose. Now, in my opinion. You need to get blood work done. You need to get off test, PCT if you can. And you need to spend several months learning a lot more than what you know. You are putting yourself at a serious health risk.

 

[Angelo_47]

never done blood test. not even sure what to check in there.I m 47, 185 cm, 92 kg, and I want to bulk up faster . I have stopped test for now 6 weeks and tell you: I m shrinking by the day !

 

[NeuroRN]

Because you didn’t do anything to re start your natural production. You need a CMP, CBC, test, estrogen.

Depending on your state, you can order them yourself and go get them done. PrivateMDlabs dot com.

You need to not even think about touching gear again until you know a lot more, use the magnifying glass to search what you want to know.

 

[Angelo_47]

yes I did. I started out of curiosity and desperation as at my age (47 y.o, full time work, kid and parents to look after ) putting on muscle was a real challenge . In less than 6 months this stuff transformed me! I realised later on that there was a price to pay for it…I want to understand now ’ what’s next’

Pct protocol simple version Steroid Cycles and Discussion

A normal conventional pct protocol is a combination of Clomiphene citrate and Tamoxifen Citrate Or clomid and Nolvadex. If you run a long ester cycle with enanthate or cypionate you would start 2wks after your last injection. If you were running a longer ester such as an undecanoate or a deconate you might want to wait 3wks or longer. If you’re running short esters like prop phenylpropionate or others usually 3-5 days later is the time you would start your pct depending on the ester and its ha…

And you should get a psa level tested.

@Angelo_47

Brother you’ve gotten great advice already.

All I’m going to say is you’re at an age where there might not be a point of return. This stuff will/can mess you up real bad.

 

[Poppy]

Probably wouldn’t hurt to donate blood either…thin it out some. That’ll help clean you up.

Sorry if that was already mentioned.

 

[Poppy]

Ok brother.

I just reread this thread for the 3rd time.

Let’s try and get you straight.

First thing is drop your dose to 200mg a week as stated by @NeuroRN

Do you have a family doctor you’ve been seeing regularly?

Do you have health insurance?

 

[Poppy]

You just getting off work?

 

[NeuroRN]

Yessir. Done with my three, not back until Tuesday!

 

[Poppy]

Whoop whoop!

Crazy hours

 

[JLee]

Welcome to ugm. You can’t just stop test after taking as long as you have. Need to do post cycle therapy asap.

 

[Poppy]

He’s taken 500@week for 6 months at 47 years old with zero ancillaries… I’m thinking he’s shut down hard maybe for good.
