Hi,

I’m trying to understand HCG usage. Is it a necessity while starting a 250/300mg weekly cycle to protect your balls?

I’ve read that it’s important, but also that it messes up your Estrogen and then you’d definitely need an AI?

What’s your experience/advice?

Thanks

Hi,

I’m about to start my first cycle (300mg Test C weekly) and have done some research about hair loss, but I was hoping to get some wider advice.

I’ve read varying reports of Fin/Min/Dut/Ru but wondered:

- whether if best to start immediately as a precaution, or wait until any hair loss starts (it seems like the damage will be too far gone at that point)

- whether it’s best to start small with topical Min and escalate accordingly, or start off oral Fin just to be sure

I’ve done some research but it’s hard to decide on 1 route when everyone seems to have an opinion on what worked/didn’t work for them (I understand personal reactions are so specific to each body etc). Any helpful advice would be appreciated, thanks!

N.B Genetically, a couple of the men in my family have had thinning hair in their 50/60s, but I believe that’s age related more than anything else. My brother has thinning hair in his 30s but not really sure why (maybe he’s secretly pinning, too). I’m in my early 30s and haven’t really seen any hair loss naturally.

Hi,

I’m getting bloods checked out before starting on test and I’m just wondering what you’d suggest is 100% necessary and any others that would be ideal.

Thanks in advance
