Test E - No Results?? 25 days in

Hi all, I'm 25 days in to my first Test-E cycle. 250mg 2x a week. I've pinned 8 times so far. I'm only taking Test-E at this point.. Nothing else..

I'm starting to think my gear might be bunk. I thought I was noticing some common side effects..
ie: testicular atrophy, oily forehead, seems like I'm recover faster from workouts. I haven't really been sleeping well since cycle start (restless).. Sex drive seems about the same as always. My nipples seem a little more sensitive and harder. I'm working out hard, and eating clean and often and upped my protein intake.

However.... I'm really not seeing any gains/growth. I find when I work out I feel like Im more pumped, and look bigger, but wondering if it's all placebo effect now.

Am I just expecting too much too soon? I'm starting to feel like I'm wasting my time.

thx.

8 injections in is only 4 weeks. its 5 weeks MINIMUM before you START to see results. give it time. If you are unsure, go get some bloodwork done around week 5-6. this will ease your mind. if you think ur gear is bunk now, you are going to doubt it your whiole cycle, this i promise you. i strongly advise to keep going and get bloodwork done around week 6.

^^^this man's advice is golden!
 
Ok thanks I'll stick it out. I read that sometime it's late to start working for some (like 5-6 weeks). That sort of got me wondering.. if it doesn't kick in til so late how come people recommend like a 10 week cycle. It's like you've only got 3-4 weeks to grow on a 10 week cycle. Also, can you point me in the direction for bloodwork in canada? private I assume. thanks for your reply!
 
Did you notice increase in sex drive or anything else?
Around week 5 is when it's getting real.

You'll know when it's kicking in

Lol, thats why no one around here recommends a 10 week cycle. anyone who says "im planning a 10week test blah blah blah" and they have good information, the response back is usually, "Looks good, i would just increase to 12 weeks." And dont forget, the 2 weeks after last pin, the test levels are still high enough to gain.
 
im about to 7 weeks in and don't feel shit, but my gears legit. And you say your not gaining anything yet? How much weight have you gained on cycle so far, has your lifts not went up any?
 
That's the best part about kick starting because you don't have to wait. I have had test E that I noticed kick in about 3 weeks and I have had some that felt like it took about 6 weeks to kick in.
 
My 1st cycle of TestE I kept thinking I should ":feel" something. I didn't flu up and I did not notice anything in terms of feeling bit at weeks 7 and 8 I looked at all my lifts (up) and my weight (up) and by fat (not up..little down) and I dialed my food in more and got blood done.
 
thats the problem with low dose long esters. it takes forever to really start feeling it. like others have said, give it time.
 
Yea I'm 6 weeks and don't really feel anything but gear is legit and test levels are 1500 plus... Think some people just react differently and the ones that don't get the "feel" expect this dramatic feel.. Just not the case sometimes... Weight has gone up and strength just no libido, sides, etc.... I'm ok with that.. Wish I could find some proviron though
