: MAny people use things like primobolan or oxandrin
: at the end of their cycles thinking it will give them
: time for their natural test levels to get back to
: normal. However, Micheal Mooney has recently published
: some information indicates that this may not be true.
: The atricle showed data that revealed that only ten milligrams
: of oxandrin reduces test production by 60%. Parabolan, Halotestin, and
: DHT all substantially decrease test production. Deca appears to
: down-regualte the natural mechanism slightly more than testosterne
: itself, and parabolan causes about three times down regulation as
: testosterone. The truth is that any steroid will effect the hypothalmic
: sensing mechanism and down regulate test production. The article
: in the new MM2K goes in to greater detail. This point is that
: people need to rethink how they let their test levels get to
: normal, how people taper at the end of a cycle, and what they do in
: their "off" peroid. (Like many people often say to use primobolan
: when using HCG, but this seems to be counter productive.) The atricle
: says that there are androgen receptors in the hypothalmus, and if androgens
: bind to the hypothalamic androgen receptors they'll cause the
: hypothalamusto react and decrease natural test production. My question
: is --- if proviron is a synthetic androgen will it do the same thing
: as mentioned above? I know in the "gains keeper formula" it suggests the use of
: this compound. I would like to know what you guys think and what this article
: means to use serious bodybuilders.
Remember back when I said saturated receptors would
cause a negative feedback? So those of us weren't
so goofy after all when we said we lost our sex
drive on deca and trenbolone. Maybe a slightly
different mechanism or maybe they work together in
that the results are the same. Decreased test
output on 17's AND 19's. Oh well, stock up on the
clomid! Anarchy in the USA!
