I've known a lot of guys who hopped off after years on TRT. Usually took 6-12 months to get back to low/normal test levels.

That might be worth it or might not, depending on the person.

I stopped and my test levels were even higher than when I first got on trt when I got them rechecked a couple years later.
There's no guarantee that t levels will return to baseline. Depending on how long a guy is on TRT, his testes will completely shut down and never be able to produce t gain regardless of how much HCG he injects. HCG is essentially banned btw, so that option is off the table unless one can source it from India or UGL.

undecanoate metabolizes so slowly you only need to pin every few months to stay high enough. I'd top it off if I wanted to mini cycle.

Some guys use gear hours before a workout to get better workouts, and I think this is underrated for results without taking a full cycle.

What level is normal dude? You telling me that 20 years of TRT boosting levels to 600+ isn't gonna have significantly better results than someone who is low normal , probably dipping below that when stressed/sleep deprived? Not pro BB but it's beyond natty.

OP, downstream effects are fertility, cholesterol, hematocrit (might need to donate blood to keep red blood cells low), and debatable effects of prostate cancer (it speeds the cancer if you have it but doesn't seem to cause it).

So you'd be injecting literal grams each time. No way I'd trust the gear enough for that lmao

I've been on TRT for years. The pro's are when your hormones are balanced you feel absolutely amazing. The con is if your hormones fall out of wack you feel like crap. Its not as simple as just taking more testosterone. You have to balance your testosterone and estrogen levels. If you want your balls to stay full you have to add in HCG as well.

Normal TRT cycles won't age you. The people that 'age' drastically are literally taking 3x-4x the normal dose.

Also if you aren't actually taking TRT or anabolics you should probably refrain from posting your opinion as you really don't know anything about the topic.

I've a buddy that took this and went from like the 200s to a low 900s ng/dl. However his normal testosterone was extremely suppressed because he didn't use any kind of 'post cycle' after anabolics.


dude went from low sperm-count and 200 level test to getting his wife pregnant and 900 ng/dl.

If you can afford it, and you usually have to pay cash since it's not covered by insurance, you can get whatever dosage you want, 100% legal.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Dude you have an avi where you took time out of your life you edit your hideous beta male face.

Not only that but you took steroids literally risking your health to take attention from your face.

And you're making fun of that guy for being a ginger?



1. He sure as hell isn't ashamed of his face like you are of yours.

2. I guarantee whoever that guy is pulls more than you and is 100X better looking.


But I could be wrong, feel free to show me the error in my ways Timmy.
