Cholesterol and AAS...

I had been on an extended cycle of test & EQ, and I finished the last 6 weeks by adding 50mg of d-bol e.d. My total cholesterol turned out to be a good number but the ratio of LDL to HDL was way off, LDL=145 and HDL=15. Needless to say, I'm on lipitor. My Questions is, while on lipitor, is it okay to use AAS again, even d-bol? or should I wait until I'm normal once again? My next blood test is scheduled for 1/16/04.

:confused:
 
I would suggest you wait on the AAS till after the next blood test. Lipitor will put additional stress on the liver so I would not combine the two. Androgens can be expected to lower HDL, I believe the effect is more pronounced with orals. Out of curiousity, do you know what your HDL is off cycle?

This is perhaps the most under-rated risk of using
anabolics is the wicked dyslipidemia (bad LDL/HDL)
cholesterol that is induced. If you are going to be on
a prolonged cycle (>10 weeks), then I would definitely
would be on a statin (the best is Lipitor for reasons
that I will not elaborate here).There are risks with this
drug as approximately 1:1,000,000 can develop
a drug induced muscle wasting known as in
medical slang as "rhabdo" but this is extremely rare.
Sometimes AST/ALT levels can bump up but they
are typically not significant.

In my opinion, it is OK to combine a statin with
injectable anabolics. I would not mix oral anabolics
and a statin howver. If you are going to do orals,
do them in the beginning, wait 2 weeks, then start
a statin. Even better is to ovoids orals all together and
begin using a statin with injectable gear from day one.
