Getting shut down for life

[tobias]

I'm not used steroids yet, but i am still researching them and deciding what I should do
I’m 24 years old
I plan on using them at some point cause i want an edge in the gym
is it possible to run them for years and not shut myself down forever? My older brother has run them and he is already on trt at he is 30 years old. That is why i am asking

anabolic steroids will damage your reproductive system, that isn't even debateable

the longer and more you use them the more damage happens. you need to spend most of the year natty if you want to give yourself the best chance

 

[dylangemelli]

you are way too young to be using or even considering steroid use right now... you are going to wreck yourself using them this young... if you see your older brother having problems then why would you ever even think about it? do you have any functioning brain cells?

You can run steroids for a long time, many cycles but you can get shut down aka your natural test level shuts down or slows down.

Better cycle on and off with PCT. safer that way.

 

[JasonPriest]

you should keep cycles short and run bloodwork

bros if you dont pct or come off you can be shut down for life

 

[BodyMonster34]

[ROIDDERS]

you can be shut down for life if you dont come off and pct right

 

[Quadsweep]

[Ulter]

[e2]

The key is that when you do decide to use them, keep your cycles moderate and infrequent. Run a comprehensive PCT and keep your cycles to 1-2 per year max.

 

[RickRock]

Theres always risk of not recovering but cycling responsibly reduces risk considerably

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

You would risk your health big time, cycle on and off is better solution. PCT is important

Is it possible? Yes. However, it IS a BIG gamble. More so when a family member has already shown shut down

Do bloodwork on time to know what's happening with your body......

 

[RoySimpson]

Recovery is most important!!

 

[ballin2504]

The longer you use them the better chance you have of never being able to recover.

 

[< <samson> >]

After a decade of being on, my chances of natural recovery are slim to Jack shit. And, I’m sterile as I can be - which is a positive, to some. Not to me at the moment


If I could do it all over again - I’d cycle off, instead of staying on the whole entire time

 

[Tazz]

Get bloodwork to see what’s going on

 

[The Suppleminator]

If you don't go over board and still under 40. I used N2Generate and Unleashed from Proteinfactory for PCT and always regained my normal T level.

Which will be the advice ignored by many but which we give all the time
