How likely is this to shut me down and harm my health?

[TheNattyLickaroo]

22 year old male who completed his first cycle. 50 mg/day of Turinabol. Just one week left of my PCT, which is 20/20/20/20 Nolvadex. Feeling good and saw results.

The thing is, I don't wanna wait 10 weeks before juicing again because the cycling formula says so.
If I feel good a week after the PCT, I figure it's unlikely that I'll shut myself down if I start the next cycle of 350 mg/week Test E? I don't wanna shut myself down on purpose, but if it does happen, I'll just blast and cruise for the rest of my life, no big deal.
I figure it's unlikely to harm my health? I mean, 350 mg/week is barely above testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) dose, lol.
And how likely is this to shut down my testosterone production for good? Does it help to run a SERM along with the Test? Does this also keep my balls full and lower risk of gyno?

Also, feel free to troubleshoot my cycle+PCT.
350 mg/week Test E for 10 weeks. 40/40/20/20 Nolvadex for PCT.
My dealer doesn't have an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) in stock unfortunately. Clomid and Nolvadex are available. Are those helpful in safeguarding against gyno etc.?

Oh dear, starting off with an oral-only cycle and wanting to move onto another cycle right after. Do you really want to be married to the needle and vial for the rest of your life? I'm on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and while I've been able to make lemonade from this, it's not all sunshines and rainbows - I assure you.

To answer your questions since I'm sure you don't want to come here just be scolded for making a decision to take things without knowing the full consequences/drawbacks:

1. The reason for waiting between cycles is to give your body a chance to recover from the suppressive nature of AAS. The longer you are on as well as the higher the doses of AAS increases the chances that your HPTA will not recover - pushing the reality of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) that much closer. As I said, unless you want to be forced to pin the rest of your life (think many years from now) you might want to think carefully about this decision.

2. 350mg/wk of test is a low-dose cycle and while it might provide decent results, it will shut you down all the same. I prefer to start at 500mg/wk as this is a decent dose and will provide excellent gains provided you have your diet and training in check. A poor diet or training regimen would make any amount of AAS a waste in my opinion.

3. Nobody can tell you at what point you will be shut down for good. It could be from your tbol cycle that was ill-planned, or it may never happen. Everybody is different and our bodies all have differing genetic predispositions to permanent shutdown. Know this though, every time you take AAS you do throw those dice. A SERM will not do ANYTHING to prevent this.

4. You really do need to read the stickies at the top of this forum as it is clear you do not understand the difference between an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and a SERM. An Aromatase inhibitor (AI) prevents the generation of estrogen (needed for many reasons aside that of gyno) while a SERM (used in PCT) is used to prevent any floating estrogen from attaching to your receptors, causing the generation of breast tissue. A properly laid out cycle will have BOTH of these. Neither of these will keep your testes from seeing atrophy, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) does this.

5. RUI, the red lion at the top of your screen has plenty of AI's and other ancillaries needed for the successful cycle. See the PCT sticky for proper outlines of doses and protocols. 10 weeks is also too short imo as you have a 4-5 week ramp up time for the ester to clear, short changing your "active" time during the cycle. I prefer 12-14 week cycles personally for this reason.

Thanks for a lengthy reply.

Ye, but what are the odds of that happening from this protocol though? 5 % chance? If it's unlikely to happen, then well...

Like I said, nobody can tell you what the odds are. Could it be 5% or 95%? Sadly there isn't an owner's manual for the human body...yet.
