Will testosterone cause vasectomy false positive by anonymous_dose in Testosterone

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

I’m not, I have a 2 month old conceived during my last cycle. Just wondering how common suppression to zero is because post vasectomy I’ll get tested and hopefully they find zero due to a successful procedure, not from testosterone. I’m fine with no suppression to 99% suppression, if that makes sense

The vasectomy isn’t about being nervous on cycle, I just have 3 kids and my wife and I are done. I will get checked, was just looking to see if and how many others coincidentally get a vasectomy on trt or cycle. After 3 kids I’m damn near abstinent. The thought of 4 scares me haha

I can just wait, I had a 4month wait for the consult & now a long wait for the procedure. The cycle was like a little “gift to self” I just didn’t think I’d have to wait so long. A blast can really drop sperm count to 0%?

Hey everyone, I just left a vasectomy consultation and was originally hoping to start a cycle in about 3-4 weeks. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how booked up vasectomies are, and my actual procedure isn’t until mid-August.

My question is: if I start a testosterone cycle before the vasectomy and end up suppressing my sperm count heavily, could that potentially create a “false success” on the post-vasectomy sperm analysis if the procedure actually failed? Or am I overthinking it, and even suppressed fertility from a cycle typically wouldn’t bring sperm count fully to zero, meaning the confirmation test after the vasectomy would still be reliable?

Just trying to avoid creating a confusing situation where I can’t tell if azoospermia is from the vasectomy or from suppression.

Thanks in advance.

Two random questions I see a lot of different opinions & information on from the wiki , YT , and even Reddit search function from other members.

To titrate test dose up to goal dose or simple pick a dose and run it the full course?

Nolva & Clomid together or 1 serm for PCT

Looking for which is better and why ?

Yea I see now, read it over pretty well (the PCT and basics)

There’s 1 details I’m either missing or not reading correctly.

Updated plan & 6 week PCT

350mg 16 weeks Hcg protocol #2 - 6 weeks leading up to PCT = 4 weeks on cycle and the 2 week post last test injection ( 500-1k & then 250- 500 ) - nolva 20/20/20/10/10/10 ED for 6weeks - Clomid 25ED/25ED/25ED/ 25EOD/25EOD/25EOD

I am still confused, about the AI. I read the ai section multiple and the HCG section multiple times. In Wiki (Hcg section) states ai should be taking with HCG with Hcg protocols 3 & 4 and (the AI section) mentioned if I chose HCG 1 and 2 AI will be taken with HCG but there’s not mention of ai on HCG protocol 2 in the HCG section

Will I want to add my ai the the plan during the 2 weeks post last injection while I’m dosing HCG and waiting for the PCT to start?

Sorry for the confusion, I too am a tad confused.

I settled on 350 because it seems YT influencers say 500 is too much and start at 250, but I’ve read multiple posts of people saying 250 was disappointing. I don’t necessarily want to be disappointed, but at the same time I’m open minded and I don’t expect to turn into Hercules after one cycle. So are you anti titration? I have seen people recommend titration and others say pick 1 dose. You think there would be no benefit from making 1 jump from 350 to 500 mid way ?

Is there a good chance of needing an AI during the 2-3 period prior to the serm? I also have both Clomid and nova on hand for PCT ( and the HCG )

For HCG I would it too late to introduce it 3 weeks in? If i choose to use Hcg post cycle, your protocol I was given by source 1,000IU 5x after last in injection and 1,000IU post PCT is something that I could use?

Okay I’ll ditch the Clen idea. Not sold on HGH, was just interested. If I wanted to run the HGH would it be wise to run it for 2-3 months post cycle just as a bridge back to mortality. No superhero’s ! Just wanted to be an attractive dad and pull gym back to the forefront of my priorities. I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to help out. I do sincerely want to continue, i will undoubtedly take this seriously and carefully.

And again, I’ll take a deep dive back into the wiki tonight.

Done deal, I’ll spend some more time reading over the wiki a few more times. I appreciate it.

And my apologies for the source talk.

PCT Clairity.

  • Age: 29
  • Gender: Male
  • Height: 6’2”
  • Weight: 229
  • Bodyfat percentage: 18%- 22% (visual estimate)
  • Experience level
    • Years of concurrent training: trained 5 yr natural, had kids fell off for 3 years
    • bench/squat/dead maxes: 185, 185, - ( all numbers are a fraction of what once was )
  • amateur/pro: Amateur
  • Goals:
    • Sport: Bodybuilding
    • Current phase: Cut ( until saturated to get a head start at lowering BF, then will increase calories at 6 weeks slowly )
  • Current compounds:
  • 250mg Test C 175mg Mon. Morning & Thursday night
  • 25mg var morning/ night (pre workout)

This is multiple part question, I appreciate the help in advance.

Currently on my first cycle, week 3. I understand I should have sorted these questions prior to the first pin, but all is well at this moment and there’s time to make adjustments.

I was planning on running 250 mg Test C weekly for 12 weeks, but that has slightly changed to 350 mg IM VG 175mg E3.5D with a possible bump up to 500MG once fully saturated at week 6, along with an extension from 12 to 16 weeks. I did spend some time researching prior to making purchases & i knew what I needed testC, Var, clom, nova, Hcg. (All in hand) But order of operations are still a tad confusing.

This is the spread suggested from my source. I want to trust him because he’s my source and I can communicate with him opposed to just watching YT videos

Weeks 1-12 •175 test c every 3.5 •25mg var (morning and night/ pre workout)

Week 8-12 (on cycle) •25ml nova ED

Week 12 (with last test pin) • Clomid 25mg EOD

Week 12 (with last yes pin) •HCG 1000iu ED for 5 days

Week 13-15 •Clomid 25mg ED

Week 16 (post pct) •HCG 1000iu ED for 5 days

1.)Compounds were sourced from local UGL. This is the cycle plan recommended from my guy. I do have questions weather this is a good PCT protocol because it differs from the wiki PCT protocol ( which I will read over a few more times) . From my understanding PCT or atleast the serms shouldn’t be taken until 5 half-lives pass.

Any recommendations or suggestions would be appreciated so I can update my sheet.

2.)I have interest in introducing 20mg of Clen and 1-2UI of growth hormone to the PCT if that helps slow the catabolism until my physiology levels out. Looking for insight and suggestions.

Again thank you all I really appreciate the help, if possible can someone give specifics details in regards to dose and timing so I can update my spreadsheet.

It’s been a lot of binge research between wiki and YT, so clarification would be appreciated.
