Hello all. I'm in a bit of a dilemma maybe someone out there can help. I'm 5'10" and about 180 lbs. at 34 years old. I was trying to bulk up and get in better shape and I noticed it was a very slow process so I consulted with my doctor and he ran some blood work and discovered my test was low so he put me on femara and I have noticed definite increase in motivation and strength but not much mass increase. I have a cycle of test and it will be my first cycle so there is the question should I or not? ? If so what should I expect?
to juice or not to juice that is the question.

I would do a lot more research before you take the plunge. Learn about diet and put in some hard time training.

Bro thats a question only you can answer once weighing the pros and cons of the game. Personally I feel if done correctly the cons are very minimal. Yet they are there and can be serious.
You are old enough for sure so you take alot off the table on the con side that these young fellas have to loose.
All n all it a personal choice your gona have to make. I will advise you take your time making the decision. Use this sight and google or what ever you preffer to get all your questions answered before diving in.

welcome to ology.
1st off femara is NOT a treatment for low testosterone so make sure the femera was for low test and not for high estrogen . if he prescribed that for low test then its time to look for a new doctor. try this , do a basic google search for low testosterone treatment and ignore the adds wanting to sell you something and focus on the real info.
@ snake ..I'm planning some hard training to get my core and cardio up to par before I start increasing my protein intake .......my diet is fairly well balanced to get to the point where I will have to choose whether or not to jump in.
@phatbastard I've been researching for about 6 months now and so far as I can tell as long as I follow up with a good pct I should be okay. What's ur thoughts on the femara?

@ dawg as far as he explained it I was at a level of someone 10 years my senior so he said this would increase my serum levels naturally .....does that sound about right? At any rate I want to put myself at about 200lbs with a bmi of about 8-10%. I know that is a tall order but I think its possible with dedication and hard work.

Dawg is correct it's to control estrogen. Not testosterone theropy. So I am gona side with him and his doctor comment. I think I would verify with the doc exactly why they put u on that.
My own testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and everyone I know of consists of Testosterone of some sort or another. I am going to seek a script for Amirosan just so I don't have to pay out of pocket for it. I don't understand the femara/letro script unless you get gyno when the word testosterone is mentioned

get a look at the bloodwork nd find out the actual test level and the low-high range / normla levels.
My free test was at 5.2 and now its at 12.3 if I remember correctly .....he explained it as by stopping conversion it would increase my level. And my total test was 524 which should be at about 600 or more at my age. Maybe I should be consulting with a specialist and not my regular physician?

well it the free test thats most important when it comes to putting on size and that is a hell of an increase. Total test inst that bad really. Fairly avaerage # Your Estro must have been sky high would be my guess. I'm no doctor but I have never seen this aproach used before. But obviously he is on to some thing there.
