Really need some advice

[DopeSaladz]

Hi, I've been taking Testosterone for about a month and at first it made me feel better than I ever have in years and would get constant erections but now it's hard to stay hard and sometimes I end up feeling depressed and have self destructive thoughts, I did buy Clomid which I think may help but I don't know if I'm supposed to take it with the testosterone or after my cycle of testosterone, also the first week and a half I was taking 50mg Anavar with Testosterone and at first I had a lot of energy and felt great but it started making me feel really tired, it felt similar to taking Xanax, for 4 days I didn't know why I was feeling like this, for those 4 days I couldn't get out of bed or do anything cause I was so sedated, I would like to go back on the Anavar cause when it was working it gave me energy to where all i wanted to do was workout but now just taking the Testosterone by itself I don't get that same motivation to workout, I don't know if maybe the dose needs to be lowered or what I need to do but if someone can give me some advice about all of this that would be great cause this is my first time taking steroids, also one more thing to add, about 4 hours to a day after injecting Testosterone in my upper thigh it becomes so painful that it's hard to bend my leg or walk for like 4-5 days but then it goes away, is that supposed to happen or should I be concerned?? Also can I inject around the same area where I last injected cause I tried to do my left thigh to switch it up and the pain was so much more worse on that thigh than the right thigh to the point where I would limp so I just don't even want to inject in that thigh, also what are some other areas that I could inject that won't cause as much pain?

As far as the pain, you are probably just developing scar tissue and either gotta man up or shift injection sites more often (what I would do lol)

As far as how you are feeling, what dosage of test are you on? Pretty important factor. It sounds like you are getting high estrogen sides there, and the ONLY way to know / know how to fix the problem is to get your bloodwork done (WHICH YOU ABSOLUTELY SHOULD DO)

If you don't, no one here can really help you, it would just be a shot in the dark.

I'm taking 450mg Test but should I be taking Clomid with the Test or after the cycle? Also I plan to get a check up here soon, maybe this Friday if I can get an appointment that soon

Clomid is generally post cycle;

I wouldn't do anything until you get those bloods brother. I know it makes it harder but this is your body we're talking about, you only get 1..... Best to not fuck it up, especially on your first run. Would be a huge bummer. Longevity is key. Can't enjoy all those gains 6 feet under, so always go with the safe bet when on ANY compounds.

Also if it is high estrogen, I recommend Aromasin 12.5mg every 3 days or so. It is generally accepted to be "easier" on the body than other AI's.

Good luck, keep us posted brother!

Quit shooting in the quads !!!! Quit chasing the drugs, drop the dose to ~300/week and get ur diet training etc in check. And order some blood work thru privatemdlabs or Ulta labs. Ur doc prob ain't gonna do it for you.

No need for clomid. Clomid mks some people feel like death. 459 test probably got estrogen on the rise.. bloods as stated
Good luck

Ok sounds good I'll do that on my next injection, would it be a good idea to go to an immediate care center and explain to them what I'm taking and ask for tests?

Do your glutes or shoulder. And 99% chance they won't do your bloods. You can try tho. Private md labs is just like $90 tho if they won't do it. For private md use code oct23 or if it's in November use code nov23 and so on

Ok I appreciate your advice, I'm new to all this and I was told Clomid was an estrogen blocker from someone on Reddit so I guess that was a lie, also I did take a 50mg Clomid and everything seems to be going back to normal, I feel a hell of a lot better now but I will for sure get my blood work done this week, also any tips or concerns about the Anavar and why it's making me tired?? Anavar was great at first but I would get out of breath real easy after doing small workouts but after I stopped the Anavar that went away, could it have just been too high of a dose and if so could I take half and be fine??

I didn't know I could inject in shoulder, do I just do it in the center or is anywhere fine?

Side delt. You really should've known all this and waaaaay more before starting

Usually whenever I go to the immediate care center they do blood work and don't ever have to pay anything, do I just say I need blood work or tell them I need it to check if I have any hormonal Imbalances?

No, order some bloods.

Ok, I thought I did enough research but I guess I shouldn't have trusted Reddit so now I feel pretty stupid

You can try but again, 99% sure they don't give a fuck if you're on steroids. They'll just say stop and problem solved

He's right ^^^^ But don't take it in a fucked up way... It is just because this shit is hard on your body and even possibly worse if you do not know what you are doing. People that say this kind of shit just are really trying to get you to understand. You really should have known all of this before ever pinning, but thats hind sight and I am just trying to help the situation you're in NOW.

Clomid IS an estrogen blocker, it is just super duper hard on your body and a lot of ppl don't use it anymore.

Not sure as far as the anavar, it could have been any number of things to be honest, once you get bloods checked and figure out what was going on, then I think you can assess the anavar problem.

Alright I appreciate you and everyone else's advice and I will get everything figured out as soon as possible, I should have just asked my questions on this forum instead of wasting my time on Reddit, I may have to take the Clomid till I get the money to purchase better anti estrogen cause I got fired 2 weeks ago over some stupid shit but I start my new job Monday and as soon as I get paid I'll make an order, thanks again

Welcome...
You really need to take a few steps back..
The Questions You're asking..are the ones BEFORE you start pinning Anything..
Hell, the var could be Dbol..and you could be looking for a sale at Victoria's Secret for a good bra..
I'm not kidding..!!

Put the Needles down until you have a better grash of what you're doing..
OR
You're going to have a rough ride..

There's several Threads on 1st Cycles...
You are headed down the path the Wrong Way..
But what do I know..??

I agree with everything You and everyone is saying, I figured Reddit would have given me good advice but I'm just doing what they told me to do and what I need to order for my cycle, I feel pretty damn stupid right now but I'm glad I found this site cause I wouldn't know what to do so appreciate all the good information and will put it to good use and get blood work done this Friday!

 

[SiliconeSack]

Zion beat me to it and is 100 percent right. All these questions should have been asked already and you should have a plan in place before you start. I’m not sure where your getting your info from but it sounds like they either have no clue or aren’t trying to help. Stick around here ask questions read past posts and you’ll learn a lot. Everyone here is more than willing to help. Hope you slow down a little get this figured out for yourself so you get the results your looking for. Good luck brother.

Thanks, my source was reddit and that was probably the stupidest decision I've made for trusting anyone on there and will stick with this forum from now on, what's your thoughts or opinions on Cardarine also what kind of liver and kidneys support would y'all recommend?

 

[LickMyTATE]

Hey man, shit happens ! Just keep your head up and keep it rollin!

You are in much better hands here than anywhere else, hell, I spend a lot of my work day fucking around and just talking to the guys here because there is SO much good information, not only for AAS but for training, diet etc....

Plus most of the guys here genuinely give a fuck of one another, a tight knit group of meat heads!

Welcome again man, sorry it started rough but you can get it fixed, and hopefully ya stick around@!

also I run cardarine on hard workout days but I wouldnt even fucking THINK of another compound until you get the one your on figured out

@GYMnTONIC has some awesome cycle support, and great deals on his Liv-52 Double strength. Check that out.

I also use "defend" by huge supplements, full organ support.

GL!

I wasn't meaning to get the cardarine now I'm broke as fuck lol, by the time I get paid I'll have my blood work done and everything and I'll post my results on here, do I just ask for normal blood work or do I have to say specifically what I want tested, when I go to the immediate care center it's always free and I get the results the same day on the MyChart app

 

[Joe_256]

All great advice but I'd just like to add since youre a total beginner unless your shoulders are already like softballs my advice would be just use glutes for now, alternate cheeks and make sure you know exactly where to inject

In that case, it is pretty good but it definitely depends on what you want out of it.

I never noticed the "fat burning" effect everyone raves about, but I definitely got the unlimited cardio endurance out of it lol

As far as blood work, that should definitely work fine!

Agreed, I remember my first shoulder Pin, I was underdeveloped and THE FUCKING PAINNNNNNN It felt so off, 1" was 1" too deep, 0/10 recommendation unless shoulders are built out a bit

Ok thanks, I don't know what I would have done without your all's help, the upper thigh was just what was more comfortable with me cause reaching back to put it in my glute cause it's an awkward position but I'll definitely will do it in glutes now
