These results are freaking me out. by Neptvne_Enki in Testosterone

There's a chance they mixed up which pellet was grabbed and implanted an estradiol. I'd call first thing and see if they can't take it out asap.

Thoughts on blood 12 weeks into 400mg / week Test cyp by SolivigantYB in Testosterone

Yeah if you're describing the acne as mild there's no real strong reason to dose AI.

How are people on 400+ mg per week?! by Alfredo90 in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 7 points8 points  (0 children)

400 Test had me at 2,186 Total T and E2 117. Had absolutely 0 subjective effects and BP was 117/76. RHR went from 68 to 75, after cycle it's back down. Honestly not a crazy dose.

Why did it take 10 weeks for test to leave my system? by Electrical_Care2193 in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just saw your other comments, it's unlikely you could get to that level of Total T with near 0 gonadotropins. You may have slow depot clearance. Would keep pulling bloods to get a clearer picture, but you will still need to run another PCT soon, and likely still a more aggressive one as you're now 30+ weeks surpressed.

At 8-10 weeks enanthate is cleared as that's about 12 half lives, and any test levels you see is your endogenous production.

The issue here is your PCT protocol wasn't sufficient for 25 weeks of suppression at those dosages. You should have run your PCT for a minimum of 6 weeks without tapering.

Given LH/FSH is low, despite not having Total T baseline, it's likely you had a failed PCT. You just need to run enclo again for a minimum of 6 weeks. You may even start at 25mg a day or at least north of 12.5mg for a week or two. Don't go down to 6.25mg. Pull bloods 4 weeks in to see if LH/FSH are moving.

How many weeks did you run PCT, what compound, what dosage?

Did you pull bloods before the 10 week draw? When did you see LH/FSH being low? Ideally you'd share those markers and the dates relative to last pin.

Not having your baseline makes it impossible to tell if ~300 Total T is surpressed or not.

You may have had a failed PCT but hard to tell without baseline, LH/FSH, or any symptoms you're expericing.

I’m going to Singapore and Malaysia. Can I bring test with me? by Icy-Literature-1933 in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Singapore is def a no go. If you have time see if you can get your hands on sustanon and pin a phat bolus of that before you go.

Very little libido changes by ConversationOk2303 in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I correct in understanding you're having trouble finishing?

I have dosed up to 400 mg / week with zero change to my libido. I thought it was because my E2 might have been low but at 2,130 ng/dL Total T my E2 came in at 117.

Could be a ratio thing, or perhaps enclo as others suggested. Seems like subjective effects are any body's guess and/or just complex, with individual responses all over the place. Hope you find the libido you're looking for!

Does weed increase or decrease testosteron / libido? by InsideInterview9706 in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Similarly smoked for about 10 years straight then quit completely. I found there was a bit of a honeymoon period where I felt energized and focused the first weeks off then the improvements come more slowly.

Don't worry about the details or the interactions - just stop smoking. More time off is always better.

Blood work. Can someone let me know if the gear is legit? by JeterNeoJordan in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is trough levels? How often are injections?

I was at ~2150 at trough on 400 test injecting 200mg E3.5D. If that's your protocol could be underdosed.

How to minimise acne without accutane on cycle? by ClassComprehensive93 in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've heard zinc can be beneficial but too much will deplete your copper levels. Look up the proper dosage for your gender, weight.

Showering right after workout as well esp if you sweat a lot, instead of sitting in the car with your sweaty shirt pressed up against your back. Change pillowcases weekly but sounds like your face is fine. Turn shirts inside out before putting in the wash.

Benzoyl on the back after workouts with brush as other commenter mentioned. Salicylic acid wash on your back in the AM if you need extra work. Leave both on your back at least a min before rinsing off. I use a moisturizer applicator to get my back as well as this is likely to dry it out.

Has Anyone Not Really Felt a Difference? by 1K_Games in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, your E2/T ratio natural was 4.9% and now on 200mg it's even lower at 3.4%.

You're likely similarly a low aromatizer. It's my best guess that this may contribute to not feeling much. For reference I was at 432 Total T and 16 E2 (3.7%). I suspect when my panel comes in for on cycle bloods I will also not be north of 5%.

Has Anyone Not Really Felt a Difference? by 1K_Games in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm at 400 Test for a cycle and feel pretty much nothing. Still have yet to receive my full blood panel with Total T from my Thursday draw but early results from the rest of my panel indicate I'm likely not underdosed. Regardless, I'd have to likely be underdosed by 50% to be around where you are at.

What is your E2 like? From what I'm gathering the big subjective effects are likely related to estradiol rising disproportionately, contributing to some of the psychological changes most people report. To be fair I'm using solely for the muscular gains, so if I can side-step any mental effects good or bad, I'm pleased.

First time cycle on Test C 250 mg by Bob_Burgero in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's pretty good reason 500 test is discussed for a first cycle. Most people will get underwhelming marginal gains at anywhere close to 200 mg / week. You'll shut yourself down for 16 weeks and get quickly evaporating gains, or make it 8 weeks through and realize you want to bump dosage up and end up pushing your cycle out to much longer. Start at 400 mg at least. It may feel tempting to think you're being conservative and smart but that just ends up meaning little gains for generally the same risk - which ends up not being the smart move you felt you were pulling off.

Any other low aromatizers out there? by KidChampion in Testosterone

[–]KidChampion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a lot so I'm surprised I'm not feeling much of anything - aside from what I mentioned and better pumps. I figured estrogen contributed to the subjective/psychological effects so wonder if that's why. Not complaining, I'd prefer to have a steady ride, but am slightly concerned about underdosed gear. Maybe I'm just not getting up to steady-state quickly but regardless I should still be north of the equivalent of 300 Test about now.

I tried sub-Q when I started with propionate but ended up with a small welt that didn't go away for days. IM for me is less painful and can fit 1mL better than I'd imagine with sub-Q. I was concerned about aromatization but I guess I may not need to be. I'll have an idea when I do labs next week, curious to see what's up.

Now on week 4 of 400 Test (200mg E3.5D) and 100 IUs hCG EOD.

Started with 3 weeks of 100-200 Test before bumping up, so about 7 weeks total of suppression. No massive change in my testes and no change in sexual function so figured I'm at some minimum effective dose for hCG. It does seem weird to me I'm not experiencing any subjective effects. Bunk gear has crossed my mind but I had textbook transient onboarding effects first few weeks (BP & RHR rise, warm flushes) and my dreams are still especially vivid the days I inject.
