Q: “How can I best use HCG between steroid cycles?” A: My most common recommendation with HCG is to use it only during cycles to avoid testicular atrophy and to maintain testicular responsiveness.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and Post Cycle Therapy (PCT)
Q: “How should HCG be used in post-cycle therapy (PCT)?” A: Ideally, HCG should not be used at all in PCT.

What Steroid Cycles Did Bodybuilders Use During Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Time?
Q: “I’m a middle-aged lifter seriously considering starting cycling. With the last 10 years straight being consistent and I think good quality training, and many years before that being off-and-on, more of the same isn’t likely to add much more for me. I’m a lot more interested in what the guys were doing in the […]
Should Testosterone Always Be Used as the Base of a Steroid Cycle?
Q: “A lot of advice says testosterone must be used every cycle. But definitely some get great results without it. Does it really need to be used for best results? Why isn’t it like with most drugs, for example the NSAIDs, where any of them does the job and combining two does nothing different than […]
Post Cycle Therapy (PCT) for Female Steroid Users?
Ask Dr. MIchael Scally – Q: What would post cycle therapy (PCT) be like for female steroid users and for what reasons?

However, stopping the AAS will produce menopausal like symptoms, therefore tapering until menses returns is best.
American Public Believes Teenagers Have Bigger Problems Than Steroids – And They’re Right
The American public believes that teenagers are facing much more serious problems in high schools today than the threat of anabolic steroids according to a study published by the Center for Social Development and Education (CSDE) at the University of Massachusetts Boston.

Pain and Gain Movie Makes Bodybuilders and Steroid Users Look Bad
To say the movie reinforces negative bodybuilding stereotypes is an understatement. “Pain & Gain“ is bad for bodybuilders. And it is even worse for steroid users. Bodybuilders aren’t just portrayed as dumb, their stupidity seemingly has no limits. Steroid users aren’t just portrayed as prone to “roid rage”, the extent of their violence is utterly sadistic.
