Bro I no how u feel about wanting it now!!! When I was 18 I was playing football and wrestling and I wanted that "edge". I had a coach, it was obvious that he was juicing. Talked to me and another player and he said, "why take that next step when u have so much potentional right now". It really sunk in man. He knew me and this other guy were wanting to take steroids do to gossip. So I decided to wait. I ate like crazy, trained like crazy and made gains naturally. If your at a plateau, change it up and confuse your body, it's all about your mind and training and when your not training diet and rest. I would wait till I am at least 21 if not older. Enjoy being healthy and enjoy not having to go to the doctor for blood work and all that good stuff comes along with this game. Wish you the best of luck. When I was 18 I was 6"2 230-235 natural. Not the leanest but strong and got a scholarship to play ball. Do it natural lot less complications and money, just for a while bro.

308power, congrats on the powerlifting that's great. How often did you juice per year at that young age? What did you take as well? For testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), is there a certain amount of something that can trigger those permanently low T-levels? Or do length and mistakes of a cycle have key factors towards it? For example I were to run a 12 week test e cycle with all the knowledge I could possibly ever get (theoretically) and were to run it with everything necessary to come out of it healthy? I mean I understand testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) varies with every person differently because everyone's different but is there a "safer" way to do it that would decrease the chances. Once again everybody just some good questions on my mind

or how about shedding hair at that age 20? any of those sound good to you? all possibilities when starting that youngThe only difference between starting at 18 and starting at 25 is psychological side effects and possibly stunting your growth. All the other side effects are possible at any age. You are at a better starting point for gear than a lot of other people I've seen, thats for sure. I would tell you to go for it, but as you can see, I would get flamed for voicing my own opinion.

You've gotten solid advice, its up to you now to make the correct decision. Stick around even if you make the correct choice (waiting) you will learn a lot and be prepared for when ever you do decide to cycle. There is no harm in reading/researching AAS, but there is if you jump in too early!

Ligand, that is true. If its done wrong even by a 30 year old there still will be consequences, I can just see how an 18year old or younger person possibly doing a bit more damage than that of an older person. About the stunt growth topic (assuming max height) Wouldn't that just be a "myth" or coincidences in some cases because doesn't the reason all of that happens is because estrogen binds to the growth plates which closes them?(reasons why girls stop growing at an earlier age) and with the increase of the testosterone it promotes the process of growth and which adds to that is you typically reduce estrogen in your body in some phs/AAS or with the post cycle therapy (pct), Aromatase inhibitor (AI) etc so in a sense wouldn't you think if done right you can actually quicken or preserve the open bone plates? Please correct me if any of that is wrong

Yeah I've gotten some really good responses and thoughts about this and has helped me not want to do it as bad as i used to. Great points and examples too. Even if I decide not to take it which at this point I'm pretty convinced not to.. I will still be around the forums looking around for info like i always do haha I actually find it quite amusing learning about all of this and for when i do decide to start later on I should hopefully be set
