Well I am in my 3rd week of PCT of Nolva/Clomid/asin and this freaking sucks......... This is the first time I ran this PCT protocol being that I had never cycled test before. I am lethargic really bad. My libido is non-existent, so bad that my wife has been horny and its like a chore for me to get it on. I'm still hitting the gym, although I lacking mental clarity at the time. Poundages aren't where they were but still going strong.

I have been taking 20mg/day of mk-2866 (taste like ass, gymrat thanks for warning!) and have been also pinning igf des pre w/o and peg mgf on my off days (thanks again gymrat!) I am pretty happy with the combo so far, it seems to be holding my weight steady......I dropped from 209 to 206 (still up from 196) so hopefully the MK-2866 and the peptides will help me hold on to some of this through pct.


All and all, the lethargy is the worst, I can't stand it. I even have caffeine powder I have been scooping into my drinks, and it just won't cut it.

Anyhow, I have supplies stocked already for Run 2, which so far I know will be Test E @ 750............looking forward to that day....

PCT always sucked for me. Even my best recoveries were nothing short of miserable, you are not alone.

Your training volume should reflect your ability to recover for the upcoming weeks. This is the time when less really is more.

Make sure you don't overkill on the E2 suppression, right now E2 is about the most anabolic activity you have going.

Hang tough.

PCT sucks. Up until know I was off the juice for years. The whole thing that was holding me back from starting up again was debating in my head if dealing with PCT again was worth it. PCT Blows

Hang in there Alpha, PCT sucks. i ran PCT once, but never really felt the same. Ended up starting my second cycle 1 month after my pct...

Hang in there and get some cialis etc for now to take care of the libido thing. Libido is a major part of it, if you have no issues in that department PCT can be easier. Its one less mental worry

PCT always sucked for me as well. Was always depressed, felt like shit and libido was gone. But it does eventually get better. As far as libido, and sustaining an erection goes, I personally found, for me, that it was more psychological and not physiological. Once the thought of not sustaining was in my head I was fucked. But it all does go away, just takes time. I'm on TRT, and believe me, I feel degrees of those issues when I come off cycle and go down to 200mgs of test a week. Be strong brother it will soon pass!!

PCT sucks. Your almost there. Usually for me 2 weeks after PCT I start to return to normal. So your half way there. Hang in there.

Also not sure if anyone already said but you should be tapering down the a-sin. Might help out a bit. Want to be completely tapered down by the end of pct or slightly before IMO.
