20 yo: My steroids story, questions, needing help

Thyroid issues are pretty common, it's very important you go to a good endocrinologist and figure out how to fix your thyroid issue. Do this before anymore cycles. If you end up taking thyroid med, its a hormone too and you dont want to be messing with more than one hormone at a time. Take this seriously. I too have an underactive thyroid, hyPOthyroidism and I've always been skinny as a rail. I had a goiter (adams apple) that was pronounced and thats often a dead give away that someone has a thyroid issue since thats where the thyroid gland is. In my case, my thyroid gland was overworked trying to produce enough T3 for the body which actually kept my metabolism higher than most people = skinny as fuck. I also run hot. So now I take T3 daily and my goiter is complete gone, I have a bit more energy and dont get quite as lethargic after I eat. And I've gained a modest amount of weight and muscle. But I'm 31 and fixed my thyroid issue 10 years ago and things are slowing down now. If I were you, I'd do post cycle therapy (pct) and fix your hormone issues first, get blood tests and once things are stable then you can return to your dreams of using aas at an early age. Be careful buddy.

The doctor told me to forget about post cycle therapy (pct). She wants to see whether or not my levels would be able to stabilize on their own. Your comments?
 
I am not to sure on the throid issue; I have never heard of that being a problem from just a one-time semi mild cycle such as the one you listed. My take on the using AAS at such a young age is this:
If you have very good genetics, and plan on making a career out of something bodybuilding related, whether it be competing, personal training, or a fitness model, then yes, AAS is a good idea.
But what it looks like from your post, you need to quit. You're 136lbs? You need to be spending all your money on food, and reading all you can about nutrition. I myself started using at age 20, but I had serious goals and aspirations. I had already competed, won shows, and now I am a personal trainer working on competing more and using my body to help my career. Cycling on steroids for beach looks is silly in my opinion.

Regarding the thyroid issue, I also don't understand how I could have an underactive thyroid. Could it be a result of taking steroids for merely one and a half weeks? I don't know. Perhaps my thyroid's activity isn't as high as it should be. To be careful, my doctor calls it underactive (by her standards).
 
Is there a weight I should be aiming for? You know, am I too light for juice?

5'8 you should easily be 170-180 lbs. naturally. Developing a barrel chest is also easier at this height, which makes you look 10 lbs heavier than you really are. You just need to eat son.
