Higher testosterone levels above the normal range will make your skin oily, give you acne, accelerate your hair loss, age you, and fuck up your endocrine system if you do it long term. First of all, testosterone is an androgen and contrary to what most people think, DHT is not the only thing that causes MPB. It's called androgenic alopecia for a reason and so if you're prone to it, taking T will worsen it, and other roids much more so. Secondly, it has been shown repeatedly that testosterone above the normal range (which is the whole point of injecting it) reduces collagen synthesis: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5172501/.

Lastly, many people who roid often take aromatase inhibitors to reduce estrogen and prevent gynecomastia. Guess what? That enzyme will block off a lot of estrogen. Lowering your estrogen levels significantly..you guessed it...worsens your hair and ages your skin. NEVER EVER take testosterone unless you have CLINICALLY below levels of T. Don't even get me started on DHT roids, trenbolone, etc.

In summary, if you roid, in any sort of respect, you are a looksminner. You cannot call yourself a looksmaxxer period. Stop trying to cheat and start working hard like everyone else. Many of the greatest athletes never needed to roid. You don't need to either. Muh "look at me, my hair and everything is fine after my cycle". Yeah, sure it is. Maybe for a a month since you're still young and then it's all downhill. "But I have bad genetics". Stop this cope. 95% of the people on this forum who talk about substances you want to take don't even lift.

Yeah, I also heard low dose Test (100-150 mg per week) is actually good for collagen.
maybe its extremely high supraphysiological levels that are bad for collagen, im pretty sure DHT can cause acne, so there might be a sweet spot

Very low IQ. Too many errors to address.

For one you lower estrogen back down to your natural baseline, not lower. Hell most roiders prefer to have their E on the high side.

Anything above 250mg test could potentially fuck your collagen a bit. But under 250 mg everything should be fine lol

Most people aren't taking 250 mg test per week. Secondly, there is no such thing as a magic "250 mg" barrier. Any amount of testosterone that takes you above the range of 300 to 1,000 ng/dL will produce the effects I mentioned. But if it's within normal range, you're not boosting your muscle growth or protein synthesis by much anyways, so why bother?

you said any amount of roiding you can build alot of muscle with 250+an oral which boost androgen receptors/collagen not even talking about hgh

250 mg test + diabol for 12 weeks is fucking enough to reach beautiful results. A pct after and you are recovered anyways lol

250mg + an oral will put you above normal range. Below that is getting close to a TRT dose which I don't consider roiding Let's be real. 95% of the people here roiding are nowhere near TRT doses. The whole point of TRT is to get back to levels of a young man and is designed for OLDER men, not to get ABOVE the range of T levels of a young man.

How about low test base + orals like Anavar ?

How would that effect collagen ?
 
@Blackpillsuicide @tincelw

what about viagra? i heard that helps skin and helps boost testosterone

cycle anavar as it boost collagen short term but loses its effects overtime

Helps with blood flow which makes skin look fuller and healthier think that’s all it does though

Not arguing with thread. But this what you said here is just plain wrong...


Even IFBB pro said that 150mg is day and night for him.

You can get to above average levels of T by simply sleeping well, having an optimal diet, and lifting regularly.

Cherrypicked example of a man who is still young. Most of the effects will obviously be more pronounced long term. An 18 year old roiding will not suddenly look 35 years old in a month. It's a gradual process. His face arguably looks older already though.

@brutal_blackpill you realize if one uses fin/RU and holds to a very strict skin care routine while on a testosterone cycle much of what you said can be mitigated? You’re only addressing retards who don’t take the appropriate precautions. Of course *they* will descend.

Ok listen. Testosterone lowers TYPE 2 collagen which is your joints. This can be counteracted with deca or anavar if it becomes a concern.
 
HGH and gh peptides are great
 
You won't pay the price in your 20s. It's when you reach your 40s and the abuse of juice makes you infertile, bald, lacking collagen and organ failure.

You say that now as a young'un but you will heed the consequences of steroid abuse when you're older. Not worth health-minning for a little extra muscle mass in your 20s and 30s.

Besides, a natural lifter with elite genetics will look better than your average juicer by a longshot...

How? We know that higher testosterone will almost surely inhibt collagen synthesis. How can you prevent it? If you have to take something else to prevent it, then it stands to reason it's better not to do it in the first place.
 
Collagen synthesis just works the way it does. It's not something that is increased/decreased like people say. "increasing collagen" never really made much sense to me. Sure you can do things that interfere with collagen synthesis; but the effects that decreased CS will have on your skin, won't be overwhelming. You can't increase collagen / increase CS as if you're turbo charging it or something like that. Growth hormone, polyphenols and the NRF2 AA cytokines increase skin elastin though, and that matters more than we think.
 
Most beta fear mongering thread, there’s nothing wrong with gear usage if you do it right, especially testosterone, practically zero side effects in 150 - 250mg range. Also who gives a fuck about when you’re in your 40s for all you know you could be hit by a car tomorrow stop being a pussy and actually take risks that’ll greatly maximise your looks.
