Should I start pct before end of cycle?

If using any drugs that suppress your natural testosterone production, we recommend starting a PCT protocol after ending the cycle. For SARMs (selective androgen receptor modulators) and prohormones, you can start right after you stop taking them. For steroids, wait a week to start PCT.

Should I take Clomid and Nolvadex together?

There is a good reason for running nolva and clomid together, it seems that clomid over time will downregulate the gnrh receptors in the pituitary, running nolva actually upregulates the gnrh receptors. So, running both will give you the best bang for your buck.

Which is better Arimidex or nolvadex?

Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) is an effective, first-line option for certain types of breast cancers, but it has many severe side effects and needs a lot of monitoring. Arimidex (anastrozole) is one of the first-line treatments for breast cancer that helps improve survival rates, but it is used only in post-menopausal women.

Does nolvadex reduce gyno?

The selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) tamoxifen (Nolvadex) has been shown to reduce breast volume in gynecomastia, but it was not able to entirely eliminate all of the breast tissue. This type of therapy often is most used for severe or painful gynecomastia.

Can I take Clomid and Nolvadex at the same time for PCT?

Can I use hCG during an anabolic steroid cycle?

HCG should not automatically be utilized during an anabolic steroid cycle unless the cycle is of an extremely long length (12 or more weeks), and/or the individual is prone to very quick and very severe suppression/shutdown of the HPTA.

Should I take hCG during PCT or after a cycle?

Unfortunately, most steroid users have been engrained to believe that hCG should be used after a cycle, during PCT. Upon reviewing the science and basic endocrinology you will see that a faster and more complete recovery is possible if hCG is ran during a cycle.

Why do bodybuilders and athletes use hCG?

Bodybuilders and athletes use hCG either on cycle, in an effort to maintain testicular integrity during steroid administration, or after a cycle, to help restore hormonal homeostasis more quickly. Both types of use are deemed effective when properly applied.

Does hCG prevent testicular degeneration?

In conclusion, we have learned that utilizing hCG during a steroid cycle will significantly prevent testicular degeneration. This helps create a seamless transition from “on cycle” to “off cycle” thus avoiding the post cycle crash.
