I am doing my first cycle and need some advice.

My stats:
Age: 30
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 165 lbs
Body Fat: 17%

I got my prescription from a doctor. I talked to him about cycling my gear use and he suggested me not to do that.

10/13/2010 Start date
200mg/ml Testosterone-Cypionate taking 1/2 cc every 5 days
1000IU HCG EW
Vit B12 EW
Anastrozole twice/week
DHEA 25mg ED
Thyroid Armor T3 30mg ED
1 mg Finastride (DHT Blocker)
I have hypothyroidism so Taking 125 mcg synthroid ED

My Blood work result
Total T: 614
Free T: 177 (2.89%)
SHBG: 15.7
IGF1: 279
TSH: 2.89
Cholesterol within the range

My Goal: 180 lbs with 10-12% body fat
My Diet: 4 times/day 2200-2500 Calorie (40/40/20 ratio)

Question?
1) I want to do a cycle so that I keep up with my natural T production. Planning on doing 10 week on and 10 week off. Does my cycle look good for first timer? Also My HCG supply is longer than 10 weeks, should I continue doing HCG after T supply is over?

2) I have been feeling really tired after the first shot. Libido is down too. Erection is fine. Is this normal in the beginning?

3) I paid almost $900 for doctor and supplies which I know is a reap off.

4) Any other suggestion would be appreciated.

Sorry, T3 is 30mg ED (1/2 grain).

You mentioned about this level of Test killing my Natty Test production but I am taking HCG too on my cycle so my balls would not shrink. Also, why higher doses would not have the same effect?

I am ramping up on Test next time to 1cc. I just wanted my body to adjust to new changes.
 
Updates!

My libido is also slightly lower than when I was not doing any cycle. My natural T level was above 600 before cycle and I felt horny and hard all the time. My erections are still good now as always.

My last two gym session was hard core. I felt like I was going to tear the gym apart. lol!

My weight increased by 4 lbs in 3 days of first shot, I guess mostly water.
 
Doesn't matter. You're living in Skinnytown with a brief vacation in Fatland.

Listen. Get you're bodyfat down to less than 14%. Get your natural bodyweight up to above 185lbs through PROPER diet and training. Then worry about a cycle. Especially since you have hypothyroidism, you need a clean diet and to keep the BF% in check even more.

Stick to the doctor prescribed amount. Stop looking for shortcuts.

My body fat was around 14% at 150 lbs a year ago. Once I started taking Synthoid and hit the gym hard, I bulked up to 165. I am bulking up right now so my fat percent went up as well. My hypothyroidism is back to normal.

Regarding the doc pres, he wanted me to be on 1 cc EW but I told him to start with lower in the beginning and then move up.

WAS = past tense. Having an inactive thyroid you are more at risk for weight issues. Even if you didn't, I'd still say the same thing.

You have alot to gain naturally and you need to get your BF% in better check. You're gonna do what you want, just adding some advice.

I agree that I still have a lot to gain naturally. I used to be 140 lbs skinny guy 18 month ago. Hope I can add some good muscle naturally. I stopped seeing the results since last 3 months so decided to do my first cycle.

So what do you think is the good level of body fat on bulking phase before starting on cutting?

I never went over 14%. Just too many issues arise. Harder to drop the fat later and maintain muscle. Potential gyno issues (supposedly). High BP issues.

I would look into your diet and training before I did a cycle. Cause even if you do a cycle, that has to be on point.

Doing this cycle and using HCG I am still using by balls to produce Test naturally plus extra Test I get from the shot. No need for PCT for me.

I think doing higer doses of Test and completely depending on exogenous source would kill the natty T production more.

Most gear user I see uses high doses of T and endup with small balls then go with PCT to kick start the natty T production.

wrong. any amount of exogenous test will shutdown the HPTA to some extent. And HCG is also suppressive to the HPTA.
