Currently in 9th week of first cycle
- Test Blend E3D (200mg deca, 30mg iso, 40mg phen, 30mg prop, 50mg cyp, 50mg enth)
- Test Enth E6D (125mg)
- Liquid Anastrozole when symptoms occur

I got my gear from a reputable source, and from the packaging and everything else I've seen on here I'm certain the product is good. The thing I'm questioning is it possible my gear is underdosed (and if so then I guess it's not so good)? Or is it possible I'm getting used to the higher levels of test (and no longer seeing side effects)?
During the first couple weeks I didn't have any side effects, but I did start to see some strength gains. In the next couple weeks I started to get sensitive nipples (twice) and rock hard erections every morning and throughout the day. The anastrozole took care of the sensitivity right away, but I still had rock hard erections. Strength gains were still present.
When I got into the second vial of the test blend I started to notice that the sensitive nipples (slightly once) and the rock hard erections tapered off. I no longer had to use the anastrozole at all. I did get some crazy muscle tightness though. Like if I moved too fast I felt I might rip my muscles off the bone! I still had strength gains and gained size as well.
Now I'm into my third vial of test blend and pretty much all side effects have disappeared. I'm still happy that I'm gaining size and strength, but I really miss the rock hard erections, lol. Throughout the cycle so far I haven't had any negative side effects either. I would get a blood test, but I'm almost done with the cycle and I don't think there will be a point until after the PCT anyways.
So is it possible the two vials were underdosed? Or is it common to get used to the high levels of test?

Body becomes counter productive with prolonged use, not dose dependant.

I hardly consider 9 weeks "prolonged use". I'm just wondering why I'm no longer seeing any side effects. Is that common? When I was reading up on side effects I just assumed they had them throughout the cycle. I'm glad I don't have any negatives (acne, temper, depressed, oily), but I'd really like to get rock hard erections again... even if it meant having sensitive nipples, lol. The anastrozole took care of that right away.
 
I never said that you had "prolonged use". I just said that's when the body stops responding. Not the dose. So you would make your own conclusion from there.
 
I don't even know what you want me to elaborate on. This doesn't have to do with receptor saturation. Just like a diet, it doesn't work forever, that's why we change things with our diets and come off cycles. Otherwise we would stay at a gram a week and become 700 lb guys with mostly mass.

Dennis, this has nothing to do with Test either, so I don't know what "test is test" is all about...

Receptors do not downregulate, which is what a lot of people assume. Prolonged use will cause the body to eventually release proteins and hormones that act as antagonists to steroids.

I think I get what you're saying. So it's possible my cycle has run its course, or body adapted, and I'm pretty much treading water now? I did get some good gains and size in the first 8 weeks.

Very uncommon and not likely. To be honest with you, I partially read your post because I developed paragraphical blindness. But from the sounds of it, you've got other issues and it's not related to your body rejecting results. Probably diet related.

I figured that much, and to be honest as well I was only saying, "I think I get what you were saying" to see how you would respond back and maybe I'd learn something new that I wasn't intending. But it most likely isn't my diet either. Unless eating clean with calculated macros would suppress all side effects. Then maybe so.
 
Ok damnit, I'm gonna go back and read your post and give you my attention. Sorry. unbroken paragraphs are really hard on my eyes.
 
Well, you forgot to mention an important thing. What was your starting weight? And why would you assume it's underdosed, because side effects went away? So you're still gaining, what's the deal? I'd be happy actually. Side effects will fluctuate at times from hormonal changes, balances and imbalances. I think you should have used your Aromatase inhibitor (AI) throughout, but if you're not willing to get blood work, you're only playing a guessing game.

First post, sorry. I'm not much of a forum poster. More of a forum lurker.

Thanks for a second look!! Starting weight was 165lbs, 12.2%bf (I know a little on the light side). I'm now at 185lbs, 14.4%bf. Yeah I am happy... I just wanted the erections back. As far as the Aromatase inhibitor (AI), I read that you shouldn't put more stuff into your body if it was not needed. I wasn't seeing any side effects so I quit taking it. And my blood work will be done after PCT, but in hindsight one during cycle would have been best. You are correct.

Great results. Use cialis.
 
The body does not become use to Steroid levels. You can come off the cycle and train, eat and live a normal life as far as I'm concerned.
The majority of these effects are purely psychological. People get addicted to the feeling of higher testosterone levels mentally.
