New cycle was created by Dries-I-Am
Hi guys.
I'm struggling to get an answer in the PCT section.
I need to order my new batch soon so trying to get answers asap. 
So I'll start over. 
I'm 35 years old my weight is 95kg and length is about 1.85m. 
I'm on the following cycle:
Decca D 350
Masteron E 200
Test 250
On week 11

Question 1
Do I need to do a PCT after each cycle.? Yes or no. 

Question 2
Do I need to do something about my rock hard nipples. Can it cause issues or can I just continue with next cycle. 

Question 3
I feel like my gains might be at a plateau. I've read at the site where I order my supplements I can take proviron to solve this issue. Is this true. 

Question 4
If questions 2 and 3 are yes, do I take it together with my next cycle or will proviron sort my hard nipple issue. 

Thank you in advance for any advice.

I'm struggling to get an answer in the PCT section.
Really? I don't believe you.

Question 1
Do I need to do a PCT after each cycle.? Yes or no.
It's not a simple Yes or No. If you don't do TRT then Yes. If you do TRT then No. In your case it will be a Yes.

Question 2
Do I need to do something about my rock hard nipples. Can it cause issues or can I just continue with next cycle.
What's "rock hard nipples"? If you have Gynocomastia then you'll have to do something or it will just get worse.

Question 3
I feel like my gains might be at a plateau. I've read at the site where I order my supplements I can take proviron to solve this issue. Is this true.
No. You need to make sure your diet is adequate so that you can recover from the training and you need to change your training routine from time to time so that your body does not get accustomed to the same stimuli. Train a week with lighter weights and lower intensity and then resume with an altered training program.

Question 4
If questions 2 and 3 are yes, do I take it together with my next cycle or will proviron sort my hard nipple issue.
Proviron will not help with gyno or to get over a plateau.

Pretty scary questions to be asking at this stage of using steroids, considering that there's so much knowledge available on the internet these days.

If you go and look HERE you can find almost anything you need to know about steroids cycles, recovery and diet.

I think it’s best you come off and pct and see what’s going on with your nipples. There’s litrally no point in coming off and doing a pct and rushing back on because the aim of a pct is to come back to homeostasis. I’m not an expert but your nipples could be a result of prolactin which came about because you didn’t control your estrogen from what I understand is high prolactin can come about from high estrogen. Estrogen cld have been controlled with an ai or a serm, prolactin cld be controlled by caber. You shld have these things on hand so best come off and rethink your cycle and don’t rush into it.

Sorry If I sound bit irritated or edgy but I don't have knowledge of these kind of thing and I'm struggling to find the right answer and what's best for me at this stage.
That's the point of this forum right.
For people like me asking stuff like this even stupid questions sometime.
I thought hard nipples is estrogen build up. Not very hard but you know you can feel it's something that shouldn't be there.
This is my first cycle.
So from the feedback I gathered here I'll get some Nolvadex and what else should I get to do a PCT.
And how long after my last injection should I start PCT.?
And then how long after PCT can I start injecting again?
Is this questions valid?
Or does it depend.?
I don't gain much more. Not sure why but I'll change my training routine and my diet. I'm not sure what else I can do.
Do you need more info to establish what I should do.?
And yes I always Google but don't always get the answers im looking for and it always differs from your replies so not always an option. I really hope I can get a positive response.
Thanks.

No worries..
This article from this site in articles tab will indicate when to start your pct and you can follow one of these.
www.anabolicsteroids.co.za/articles/post-cycle-therapy
As for when to do your next cycle it’s not cut and dry, mabe someone else can but what I think is you should take abit of time because the whole point of a pct is to get your endocrine system working without exogenous hormones and you may have some negative consequences so it might take a while to get to homeostasis. Mabe the glands are just sensitive and there isn’t permanent damage growth tho. But what I’ve been saying is it doesn’t make sense to pct and jump back on cycle too soon or there is absolutely no point in doing the pct.
Im also just learning, trying my best to advise, where I haven’t answered you is because I don’t feel that qualified to really.

Thanks man this helps a lot. Much more clarity. Quite a bit of waiting time before I can start PCT cycle.
Looks like 45day to wait. cause my longest acting Ester was Decca. 
Just one more question,
Do I follow example 2 or 3 PCT?
I know it's not one cause my cycle wasn't that weak. I have a feeling it might be number 2.

Another question... Once on PCT do I carry on training and diet like normal?

Thanks

I’m going to do nolvadex and clomid, only. I’ve been doing nolvadex on cycle though and I’ve also been using 250iu hcg twice a week to avoid endogenous shut down.
So I don’t have atrophy.
I’ve been on the same cycle basically just without masteron. Using hcg I wld think wld be a good idea if you haven’t done it on cycle.

I wld do that because there’s no reason to kickstart natural production while you still have androgens in your system, I did nolvadex on cycle to prevent aromatisation affecting my nipples while on cycle. I’m probably going to check my bloods end of March and decide on a course of action that way because I’ll be in the UK and use a good bloods lab there that advise also. I don’t know how long to wait. I would usually do one or two cycles a year. I wld come off check your nipple issue go atleast a few months off to see if you good if you not going to check bloods.

do you have to wait 45 days to start your pct? Well if it was a car that needed to go to a panel beater, would it be best to stop crashing the car into the wall first before getting it fixed? 

When ever there is still exogenous hormones running around the system, your natural hormones will be suppressed. If you want complete elimination of exogenous hormones it's usually 5x the longest half life. You can do the maths on that.

Alot of the time you DONT NEED A PCT. as much as everyone is going to shit on that idea, the idea of pct is to try and restore hormone levels as fast as possible which will happen when there is 0 exogenous hormone in the system.

Think of recovery of hormones like a factory. The longer the factory is shut down the longer it takes to bounce back. Shut down is not based on amount of drug used, because you could use 100mg of test and be shut down. You can use 2000mg of test and guess what? You don't get more shut down than shut down. You can't close a door more than closed, you can't make it super closed. So it's not the dosage more so than the length of time on. Same with a factory. If you shut down over Christmas for 2 weeks, you will come back in the new year, do a spring clean and the customers will still be there, and so will staff. How ever if you shut down for 2 years like covid, you will need to find new customers, find new staff, find new suppliers of raw materials, service the equipment etc which could take you 2 years to get back to full running capacity. So recovery is all about length of time on and suppression over amount or type of compound used. Simple as that really.

So if you are going to go on a course, do pct and go straight back on again, you are just slamming multiple doors constantly. Also at 35, you are never going to restore test levels back to what they were when you were 16, so this is where trt is a viable option.

So if I was you, or I should say what I do, seeing I'm 38, is 16 weeks on 8 weeks trt, 16 weeks on 8 weeks trt and so on so forth. But that has its own risks and that is my prerogative seeing i do stand on stage in a little bikini from time to time.
