I was reading on another forum about this subject but found bro science mostly. If someone on TRT were to add NPP would test levels jump as far as labs could detect? Some people posted studies that they believed showed indirect rise of test level due to NPP. But others said NPP couldn't do that unless the maker spiked NPP with test.
Does nandrolone raise test levels

Total Test = No
Free Test = Yes
Free Test = Yes
I did not know that, what about tren?

Tren would be the same.

How about the science without getting all sciency. Because I am definitely not a scientist. I was a business major in college.
Nandrolone (or Tren) will not show up in a blood test as Testosterone because they are not testosterone. That part is simple -- assuming your gear is real and pure.
Free Testosterone increases while using these compounds because they will be bound by SHBG. If nandrolone or Trenbolone are competing with exogenous testosterone to be bound by SHBG and Albumin, that leaves more testosterone to float around freely all other things being equal.
Halfwit or someone else will have to do the sciency part...

If our on TRT and plan on adding it to a cruise and hoping it won't show up on blood work be sure you dr. isn't testing for Free T like mega explained about or he'll be wanting to adjust your protocol.
As for it not showing up as TT again as Mega said if your gear is clean and pure you should be fine. There have been guys here adding nandrolone to their trt and getting bloodwork and their TT was pretty high well either their source mislabeled the vial, they didn't clean lab equipment when switching from one brew to another etc, etc, etc. There is a possibility though remote that your TT level could rise.

Sounded sciency enough for me. Not bad for a biz major!

Happened to me with deca. It must have been mixed with some test.

Perfect explanation to me! I know this already
but It helps others that didnt know.

I'd start with no greater than 30mg/wk with NPP, and slowly bump it up if there aren't any issues with virilization. It's not as androgenic as say testosterone, but it can cause those sides, especially in sensitive individuals.
