Why have I lost my gains from One Rip. PCT?

Around this time last year I did my first cycle of steroids, which was one rip, a mixture of test, masterton and tren I believe. Doing 1ml eod for 8 weeks I gained around 1 and half stone, putting me up to 14 stone. I had no problems while on the cycle so didn't think I would need the PCT. However since coming off,although i am training just as hard, and are stronger, I now weigh under 13 stone. My diet has not been perfect but I wouldn't say I have regularly been at a calorie deficit. I am thinking of running the same cycle again and i am just hoping for some advice to avoid the same problem. Thankyou.
 
If u were at a caloric deficit (some times), how do u Expect not to loose muscles?
Beside, I'm sure that having no pct screwed u real bad,
How would u keep ur muscles when u shut down for a longer time..
Next time don't go by "how u feel" and do a pct.
 
You may not have recovered your natural testosterone production after your cycle. You you have before and after blood work that you can share with us?

Did you use and aromatase inhibitor while on cycle? If not, a lot of your gains may have just been from water retention due to elevated estrogen.
 
Total Testosterone
LH
FSH
Estradiol (sensitive assay)
CBC
Metabolic Panel
Prolactin

You shouldn't cycle at your age. You brain and body are still developing.
 
Ok, So should i not do another cycle, should my body of recovered naturally by now, and should I start seeing gains with the correct diet again soon. Or should I take some action?
 
I am 20 years old

Young man , you should never cycle at ur age.
Your endocrine system didn't fully develop at the age of 20 and you could end up hurting yourself.
What's done is done. Forget about AAS till u are 25 and make sure to fix ur issues at the moment.
Megaton is well experienced about blood tests needed to make sure u are ok.
What comes to my mind is LH, fsh, testosterone total and free.. May be a thyroid panel.
Let's see what mega will add to those.

You need to get bloods and post them on here and we can help. You might need to run a proper pct but bloods need to be done first. There are no other options with this so do what you need to do. I wish you the best of luck!
 
Get blood work and post it up. You should avoid steroids until you are more educated. The way you feel during cycle has nothing to do with the need for pct. Getting a few pounds of muscle isnt worth irreversible damage to your endocrine system.
 
Your body will find it pretty damn hard to retain muscle mass with less androgens coursing through your veins. Dieting like shit will only make it worse. Then there's the question of if you recovered yet. Without pct, you better hope so. You might have the test levels of an 80 year old man, and you know how jacked most of them are. You are in a pretty shitty situation right now. You should have planned this out much better but i'm going to help you and hopefully you will learn from this experience.
