If you want to keep the result after the cycle – do the PCT

Problem and Decision

Although the significance of PCT (post-cycle treatment) has previously been extensively discussed, based on the inquiries we receive, not everyone is aware of the right and efficient ways to carry out a PCT regimen. Let's begin by simply discussing the need for a PCT. While steroid molecules are floating in our blood, our body is not producing its own testosterone since the usage of anabolic steroids substitutes our own testosterone during the cycle.

The steroid molecules are progressively eliminated when the cycle is through, leaving us without our natural testosterone. In order to speed up the process and begin its creation as soon as possible, medications like clomiphene and tamoxifen come to the rescue. Its synthesis will begin, but much more slowly than we require.

First off, by doing this, we can prevent a sudden loss of the muscle mass we managed to gain over your cycle, and second, we can balance the body's hormones. To put it another way, we will put it back in the condition it was in before the course. We will suffer less losses if we act sooner. 

Do I need a PCT if the cycle was short and mild? 

Yes, even if you've only taken one steroid, like oxandrolone at the lowest levels. Individual organisms react differently, and recovery from cycles can occasionally be prolonged. Never pay attention to people who assert that there are cycles after which PCT is not required; this is always a fallacy.

Although the PCT protocol is typically more easier than the cycle itself, it is just as crucial as the steroid cycle. This is the second stage of the cycle that aims to maintain the result, so to speak.

Because without PCT, athletes frequently lose all of their cycle results and only make up lost ground on the subsequent cycle, the better PCT is done, the more you gain from the previous course and the more successful your subsequent course will be. As a consequence, they only note the passing of time between cycles without contributing.

Our suggestion is to take tamoxifen and clomiphene for PCT at the same time. In any event, taking 10 mg of tamoxifen together with 25 mg of clomiphene for 6-8 weeks following the cycle will depend on your steroid doses over the course of treatment and the results of your hormone testing.

The best technique to assess your current HPTA is to measure your LH, FSH, oestrogen, and prolactin levels. But because we all reside in various nations, some of us are unfortunate enough to lack access to a lab. What then should we do? Well, this simply indicates that we must reduce the chemical doses and lengthen the PCT.

Therefore, a pretty common strategy for PCT would probably look something like this: 

Week 1 

• Clomiphene citrate 100 mg per day 
• 20 mg of tamoxifen per day 
• 800 IU of vitamin E daily 

Week 2 

• 50 mg of clomiphene citrate per day 
• 20 mg of tamoxifen per day 
• 800 IU of vitamin E daily 

Week 3-4 

• 50 mg of clomiphene citrate per day 
• 10 mg of tamoxifen each day 
• 800 IU of vitamin E daily 

Week 5-8

• 50 mg of clomiphene citrate per day 
• 10 mg of tamoxifen each day 
• 800 IU of vitamin E daily

Week 9-12 

• 25 mg of clomiphene citrate each day 
• 400 IU of vitamin E daily 
•
