I was about to start my 2nd cycle today, but I checked my bloodwork and my test levels were low. Below is my first cycle and blood work results. I ran that cycle 2 years ago I'm currently 28 years old I feel fine my sex life feels normal. I don't know if there is anything I can to get my natural test levels back up if there isn't an I probably won't run my 2nd cycle. Any tips or suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

THanks

Cycle:
-WEEK 1-16 Test enanthate 500mg/wk (250mg Mon/Thurs)
-WEEK 1-16 Equipoise 400mg/wk (200mg Mon/Thurs)
-WEEK 1-16 Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) 500iu/wk (250iu Mon/Thurs)
-WEEK 1-22 Aromasin 12.5mg ED

Use 500iu's of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) every day for the 10 days leading up to 4 days before SERM treatment.

PCT: Start PCT 2 weeks after last test sustanon injection (Week 19-22)
clomid 50/50/50/50


Testosterone, serum 287 range 348-1197 ng/dL

Luteinizing Hormone (LH) 5.6 range 1.7-8.6 mIU/mL

FSH Serum 3.1 range 1.5 - 12.4 mIU/mL

Prolactin 7.1 range 4.0-15.2 ng/mL

Estradiol 15.3 range 7.6-42.6 pg/mL
 
Instead of cycle. You could try running clomid 50mg e3d for 4 weeks. Wait 3 weeks and then get bloodwork again. If test is still low..then its testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) time
 
Time to go see a doc man. With those LH/FSH values, it's looking like you have a case of primary hypogonadism (in my non-doctor opinion) which can be caused by anything ranging from opiates to a varicocele. Just be sure to avoid mentioning weight training/muscles/fat loss/body building/exercise as docs get all twitchy when they think you're there for something other than treatment.

Just don't panic, it could be something simple and reversible. Either way, you'll want to take care of this before you cycle in my opinion. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for everything to clear and possibly make things worse for yourself.

Hey I need some help guys, I'm 18 and I started a Sustanon (sust) 250 cycle, I have taken two injections of 1cc each. I'm deciding I want to stop so I don't damage my natural test and to wait till older. Do I need to run a pct from those injections or is it not even in my system yet and I don't need one.
 
You can probably just ride it out as you've only done 500mg. You may be in for a bumpy ride for the next couple weeks, but it'll pass.
 
What do you mean by bumpy ride ? And are you sure my sex drive and natural test will be ok ?
Bumpy ride as in you have already suppressed your natty testosterone and will have to wait for it to recover. Yes, your sex drive and other facets related to hormones will likely suffer a little as you recover. You can run a PCT to help speed this along, but it shouldn't be too bad given the amount of time on and the dosage/compound used.

I can't tell you if you didn't mess anything up though. That's the risk you took by putting that needle in your body, only time will tell. ;)
 
Should I just continue with the cycle ? Or do you think my natural test is most likely not going to be harmed.

We're kind of hijacking this thread here, but my honest advice is to quit and wait until you're 24-25 before you think about doing AAS again. I don't have a crystal ball to tell you if you're going to suffer any ill effects, but know that the longer you're on and the younger you are - the greater your odds of messing yourself up. It's best to quit now while you're ahead. ;)
 
Could you tell me how to post my own thread so I can do that ? Idk how

So you basically have 1 cycle under your belt and you did it 2 years ago and have recovered to 287 ng/dl T.T
You're 28 bro..you should be double that.
You feel fine you say???
Your LH is elevated, FSH is getting up there too.
You do not need a cycle...you need to get your natty T going.
Don't mention anything bout working out to your doctor...e.t.c.
 
lol why the fuck do we all have low testosterone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I can honestly say if I had testosterone levels of around like 700 to 800 for the last few years I would have gotten so much more done in life.

At last, an 18 year old with a brain!

Thanks halfwit, what kind of a doctor would you recommend because I was just planning on going to a small family doctor right here by my house. Wouldn't it be best to let the doctor know everything that's going on?
