Are there any benefits in extended pct?

On my previous 2 cycles I have ran standard 4 week pct protocol. I have a little extra tamoxifen and clomid and wondered if there would be any benefit in extending my pct another week or 2. Planned 3rd cycle:
400mg T-enan/wk x 17wks
500mg EQ/wk x 14wks
500iu HCG/wk x 19 1/2wks
.5mg A-dex/wk x 19 1/2wks (adjustable based on mid-cycle labs)
PCT - tamoxifen/clomid
I already have everything together, just ran labs, will have mid cycle labs and expect to donate blood due to the EQ. Thanks
 
If you aren't producing good numbers then an extended pct is exactly what I'd do. I have gone 6 weeks instead of 4 and just lowered my dose. To be on the safe side.....I would think that if you got blood work now and see relatively low numbers then you could extend. But if the numbers are high then probably no sense in extending, just save for next time. Perhaps some more experience will chime in here and give you a better answer. Best of luck bro

Makes sense. Might be best to run the standard 4 weeks, run post cycle labs then use remaining to run another pct if needed.
 
The only negative effect would be prolonged exposure to any negative effects of whichever pct drug you are using

Agree with this great advice, when are you starting this cycle op?
 
I think it looks alright. You are stopping the EQ a few weeks early to let it clear, and waiting 2-1/2 weeks after stopping the test-E which is good for PCT timing.

HCG looks good.

The AI looks a little bit light. EQ aromatizes half as much as test, so it's like you are taking 400 test + 500/2 for the EQ = 650 mg/wk. You'll want closer to 1mg /wk (or a bit more) versus 0.5 mg/wk, break it up into EOD or at most E3D dosing.
 
I always run a 6 week PCT. typically I would do clomid at 50/50/25/25/12.5/12.5e2d/ it is has a better stable effect on jumpstarting your natty T. It is easier on your well being and labido. It also minimizes any estrogen rebound once the SERM is gone. If I have had a really hardcore shutdown cycle [Tren, Trest, Anadrol] I can go with 50/50/50/25/25/12.5 and still have an easier time while my balls are being shocked awake.

Copy on that...thanks for the reply

Thanks for the feedback. My last cycle I started at .5 every 3.5 days but I crashed my E into single digits...miserable. I ended up with .25 every 2.5 days and it held perfect, but I was running T and low dose deca. I have plenty adex so I can adjust as needed based on sides and my labs round week 6.
