no reason to start this high as a first cycle, especially if you aromatize heavily. 12-15 weeks then pct isn't optimal either, testosterone cypionate/enanthate esters take ~5 weeks to even reach stable blood serum concentration. ideally you get bloodwork pre-cycle to assess your conversion rates to free t and e2, this will help you form a protocol for solid gains without the need for aromatase inhibitors. start at 280-350mg/week, if you notice estrogen sides just increase pin frequency. unless you're planning on inpregnating someone dont even bother with pct, you can cruise at these doses or drop to trt (health phase) when the gains start to slow down, then plan your next blast. No, you wont go infertile or have to pin forever. i've seen guys run grams of gear for decades and their nutsack drops right back down after a proper hcg, hmg, and nolvadex protocol.

Another RETARDED take.
If you have at all researched assisted reproductive technologies, i.e., HCG, HMG, etc., then you would know that children that are born as a result of ART are at higher risk of cardiometabolic disease, there is also literature on IVF causing a lower IQ in children born from it.

FOR ANYONE READING, FREEZE YOUR SPERM BEFORE YOUR FIRST CYCLE.

Now leave this forum you pseudointellectual for you do not contribute.

I don't even know who you are, but it's hilarious you have a chip on your shoulder because I've evidently debunked shit you've said previously.
Feel free to explain to me how I'm wrong with any of my points (you can't, because you don't research the shit you say, and you just say arbitrary shit).

I did this last week I had no idea other people do this, is it true that you are more likely to have a girl from gear also?

The documented effects on sperm post cycle is difficult to find.

I am starting my first cycle this week.

I started 300 and titrated up to 500.

Now gonna run 500 test and 500 EQ going into summer.

Then imma toss in the var for 6 weeks

20 week cycle prolly

blood have been good and ancillaries are good

@aids should I run EQ or primo

only concern about primo is the hair

Primo is very hair safe, but just take RU-58841 or at least have it on hand anyway.

I want an additional anabolic and to dry out a bit.

I'm leaning primo as I have a jano tested source and its dryer than EQ

I'm going to actually read and interpret this literature (as I already am), but if you are going to selectively read/cherry pick results when this is the first line of the results within the abstract:
"Meta-analysis showed that verbal intelligence score in IVF toddlers is significantly lower than NC toddlers (p = 0.02)"
Where p = 0.02 implies statistical significance, then you are a giga-retard.

The context of our discourse is that we are people using AAS and we want to maximise the outcomes for our offspring.
Many of us will likely need to use an ART protocol to conceive children.
This involves (for us) HCG, HMG, etc.
Are you a woman? Are you the one receiving sperm injections? No, so use your head here for what I am referring to. It is relevant because the men in this literature are using such.
Forgive my lack of clarification but my point remains.
Now I am actually done with you.

ur so fucking retarded

the study u are referencing has nothing to do with hcg monotherapy, doesnt mention it once, it is only referring to ivf and icsi


even a direct quote from the abstract in the study proves my point "Assisted reproductive technologies are defined here as all techniques whereby both eggs and sperm are handled" :lul::lul:

"doesnt mention it once"
The health of children conceived by ovarian stimulation apart from ART has only recently begun to be investigated (7275), given the lack of registries or other sampling frameworks in which to identify couples and their children. Low birth weight (74, 76, 77), preterm birth (74, 76, 77), and small for gestational age (78) have been found to be increased among births conceived using clomiphene citrate or injectable gonadotropin compared with births conceived without assistance. A recent study found that 3–10-year-old boys (n = 39) conceived by ovulation stimulation (by different regimens of clomiphene, FSH, or both) were on average 3 cm shorter than children conceived without assistance (75). In the study reviewed above (Table 1), Scherrer et al. (50) measured FMD in children conceived after ovulation stimulation and found no significant differences in comparison with the non-ART group, although the sample sizes were small (n = 16 and 53, respectively).

Inb4 you say "this is the treatment for the woman".
of course i will mention that, its completely irrelevant to hcg monotherapy in men :lul::lul:

also, its not even hcg monotherapy, retard, as hcg monotherapy refers to hcg use for stimulating testes

proves my point hcg =/= art aswell

use some logic for one second, a women who cannot produce her eggs naturally (due to poor health) has a less healthy child???

u should know by know that healthy prenatal development is essential for health/development

u disproved nothing with any of ur replies, point still stands that that study is completely irrelevant to hcg monotherapy and all ur doing is nonsensical fearmongering

so u think hcg is only a problem when combined with art? (hcg monotherapy isnt art)

art literally accounts for like 1% of births so it is unlikely we will need it anyway, and ur conclusion is that hcg from the male is whats causing the problems not the fucking in vitro childbirth?

i am genuinely just curious as to how u have come to ur conclusion

that has nothing to do with hcg monotherapy nigga

so ur point now is that if u go completely infertile and hcg/hmg dont work to restore testicular function then issues for ur childern can occur when icsi is used?

u are completely backtracking
