So recently, I have decided to quite juicing altogether and today marks the last day of my cycle. Which was 9 weeks of testosterone Acetate at 900mg. Testosterone acetate has a similar half life to prop, so wondering if waiting 10 days to start pct would be about right? Also in the 10 day window if I should do one more shot of hcg?
I started juicing when I was 20 (180lb, I am now 23 (195lb very lean) @ 5'7". I know it was very young. Now that I am ready to quit and be natural. What are the chances of returning to a natural state of testosterone production for my age, I understand a lot of it is genetic? Also, will I still be able to make gains or keep any of the gains I made while juicing?
Thanks,
Any help is appreciated.

Were you on juice for 3 years nonstop?
Still I'm pretty sure you can recover at 23
but be aware that's going to take some months
on the bright side it shouldn't be too expensive
a good starting protocol is
250 IU 2x/week (for a total 500 IU/week)
and Letro just 1 2.5 mg tab a week
get Total Testosterone and Estradiol blood tests after a month
post results so HCG/Letro dose can be adjusted
The rationale for this protocol is
There are basically 3 things that shutdown natural Testosterone:
1 High Estrogen
This is the most potent one to shut you down
that's why tiny dose Aromatase Inhibitors (to reduce Estrogen) or SERMs to make the pituitary believe there's less Estrogen, so it makes more LH/FSH.
2 Androgens
While mg for mg Androgens are less suppressive than Estrogens, Androgens are used in such high doses that they suppress pituitary LH/FSH production too.
3 Progestins
Some steroids have Progestagenic (Progesterone-like) activity
like Deca, Tren.
we could add a fourth one
4 Prolactin
but is often comes from high Estrogen
it is very rare to have a pituitary tumor producing large amounts of it.
So
low LH (and FSH to a lesser degree)
causes the testis to reduce their Testosterone (and sperm) producing capability.
That's why we add HCG
because it has LH (and a little FSH)-like activity to stimulate the testis to become active again.
While recovery may take time it is going to be quite economical
at 500 IU/week a 5000 IU vial (you check prices yourself) will last 10 weeks.
Even if HCG dosage is later bumped to 1000 IU/week, a 5000 IU vial will last 5 weeks.
For Letro a 30 tabs box will last 30 weeks! 15 weeks if dosage is later bumped to 2 tabs a week.
Just add blood test prices to the above
Now watch idiot shills begin insulting and spitting nonsense
as they have lost a potential TRT customer
