Thread: More newbie questions I haven't found answer to

Hey brothers,
ive just finished my 2nd cycle of just test e with way different results. I think what I was using wasn't as quality as first time. I stayed painfully swollen for 5-7 days after every injection and I think my pct wasn't legit either. My questions are:
since im so f'ed up currently , should I get blood work now to see where I'm at?
what are my options to get balanced out? I think my t is rock bottom, no sex drive, major ed, etc.
Thanks in advance

I'd start with blood work. Did you get blood work during cycle?

ive never had blood work done. Exactly which test and from where do you recommend?

How did you do your 1st and 2nd cycle with no blood work? You gotta know you're starting point and where you're going. Ok. Well there's still some info we'll all need. Like your age? Are you doing cycles at 20? How much Test did you run 1st and 2nd time? If you're young enough you'll want to make sure your PCT is on point unless you want to pin for the rest of your life. But as far as testing. There's a place I go to called Anylabtestnow. You don't need a script. You just walk in and tell them what you want tested. You'll want Free and Total Test. Estradiol. CBC panel. Those are basics. This way you know exactly what your free and total test are. Your estrogen levels and if your hematocrit is too high. But this will be your starting point.

1st cycle was awesome..tremendous gains, high sex drive. I did full pct of Clomid and nolvadex. Never had blood work. I did experience ed towards end of cycle. That was 3 years ago. I am currently 36 with diabetes. I had to really concentrate or take viagra since then for ed. It has slowly gotten worse. Just finished my 2nd cycle last month. No where near the gain, sex drive never was close to 1st time. Ed problem didn't improve much. It is terrible now.

I hear you brother. But just for future reference. You should get blood work done before during and after. So your last cycle was great but you have no data that tells you why. And I should also mention that if you have diabetes I'm sure there are related complications when it comes to that. That I know nothing about. Also since you never did blood work you don't know if you're body even fully recovered from the 1st cycle. I know it was 3 years ago. But what's it been like in between those 3 years? As far as this cycle........how much Test E did you run?

I ran 375mg every 5th day for 12 weeks. I hurt my tendons in my elbow and shoulder so I stopped lifting for a while. I'm thinking I never fully recovered looking back now

You can get legit PCT supplies on this board and run a second PCT. Run it juts like the first and it should get you started back up.

Well I guess it's time to go get them tests done. I just went yesterday a.m. You gotta know where your levels are before you do anything. But yeah.......anything you'll need can be found on this board.

Thanks for the help. Let's assume my levels are all whacked out. What can be done?
