Test e 500mg per week cycle log (first timer)

[Davo66]

Hi

Nearly on my second week of my test e only cycle so I thought I would log as I go for others to see and for any help I may get from others on this forum.

Age: 28
Height: 5"11
Weight: 182
Body fat:11.4%
Gym experience: 5+years

Blood work
Test total- 5.51ng/ml
Oestradiol- 27.3pg/ml
(These were taken at 2pm which I have since learnt that I should of had them taken first up in the morning)

Weeks 1-10: 250mg- mondays/250mg- Thursdays
Weeks 1-15: 250iu hcg shot twice per week
Weeks 1-12: arimidex 0.25mg EOD

Pct- 2 weeks after last shot
Clomid- 50mg for first 10 days followed by 25mg for another 10days

Training will be 5 sessions per week and my cals will start at 3200 daily which I will adjust depending how I go.

Is my estrogen level fairly high or what are your thoughts?? Thanks

Nice log keep us posted. Just curious y clomid over nolvadex or why not both. People think it's over kill running both but I don't. I think recovery is the most important part of any cycle and should b treated as such.

I just read that they are the same thing so decided to run one but I have been told by several people on here to run both. I completely agree its the most important part so I will run both thanks

Id rather run both serms at a low dose than a single serm at high dose. Clomid and nolva compliment each other, and you can reduce sides with the smaller doses.

40402020 on the nolvadex and I'd keep the clomid at 50 all the way thru.

So currently nearly finished my second week. Half way through this week I noticed a weird feeling in my left pec just out from my nipple and the next day I felt it in both! Decided to up my arimidex to 0.5mg EoD. This went away after 2 days and but then when i woke up yesterday morning my nipples were crazy sensitive. I brushed one of my nipples with the barbell at gym and it hurt alot! So I decided to up my ai to 0.5ed. Last night they got really bad and were stinging so i decided to take 50mg of clomid just to try and get on top of things because the ai didn't seem to be helping. Today there still sensitive and I'm unsure what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I know this is early on in my cycle to be experiencing gyno symptoms but I am 100% experiencing this and not imagining it like I'm sure a lot will be thinking. I'm not sure what my next course of action should be. I was running adex at 0.25mg EOD from the very start of my course and my pre cycle blood work is above. Currently I am still taking the adex at 0.5mg ed. Thanks in advance!

Could hold off on hcg to about 6 weeks so you get a good feel for what each drug is doing. I think in the long run if would be useful for you to feel test with out hcg and missing a few weeks of it isn't going to hurt. If you have estrogen by week two the test isn't even kicking in good yet.

Hcg gives me tons of estrogen I take it 3 times a week instead of 2 which helps out a little.

I actually never even considered it to be the hcg. The sensitivity has gone down a lot after taking the clomid for 3 days. So I'm just going to stay on my adex 0.5mg ed for a while. So do you thinking lowering my test dose to even 400mg each week instead of 500 could help?? Or just stop the hcg and see how my body handles it.

Experiment bro no one can really tell you how your body will react I say lower it and see what happens next run try aromasin instead of adex may work better for you try different things see what happens. Alot of people here run hcg through the whole cycle I say the last 6 weeks up until pct is wut I prefer but everyone is different

Yeh your right big rich. I'm going to lower the test to 400mg/split per week and hcg to 150iu twice per week and see how things go. Thanks for the advice.

Start of 4th week today.
Things are back to normal. Nipple sensitivity is gone and I have started seeing good strength gains in the gym as of a few days ago. I am still taking adex at 0.5mg ed. I was going to lower this or change to eod but am feeling great so am thinking I might keep it the same. Test is at 400mg/pw and hcg is 200iu/ twice per week.

take your clomid up to 50mg ed for all of pct....


run .25mg of adex eod.. but if you see rapid bloat and weight gain from bloat move it up to .5mg eod

looks like a decent first cycle setup...

whats your diet looking like?? a cycle with a poor diet is worthless

Hey mate I have recently upped my ai because my nipple's got crazy sensitive but they are all good now. I will probably drop it back down slowly until i get to 0.5eod. My diet is on point. I'm on 3400calories per day at the moment and the scales are creeping up nicely so I plan to just monitor it and up it if needed.

Nearly finished week 4! Feeling great and my strength and weight has definitely started going up. I weighed in at 190lb last night so 8lb up so far. Diet and training is all on point! I am still taking 0.75mg eod of adex after my gyno symptoms a few weeks back. I was planning to drop this to 0.5mg eod but since I am feeling great should I just leave it at the 0.75mg? My nipple's are back to normal and I was planning to do bloods at the end of next week to see where things are at.
