#1 reason is the same reason anyone not using AAS does - to have periodic checkups to make sure everything is working properly. If your not already having bloodwork done once a year, its a good idea. Regarding AAS, reasons are: 1- before cycle to establish baseline levels, 2- during cycle to check on lipid profile & liver & kidney function etc., and 3- after a cycle to make sure values return to normal levels and make sure your HPTA has been restored. Regarding cost, depends on whether your insurance will cover it. If it does, go to your local doc and tell him you want a complete workup done. You don't need a reason to get yourself checked out. Search under bloodwork and you can find posts that list the items you definitely want checked. Hope this helps...

It is very smart to have bloodwork done Pre-Cycle, during the cycle and post cycle however this can be quite an inconvenience for many.

It largely depends on what type and how much gear you plan to take. Especially if the steroid is liver toxic.

I agree with stillgoing. That advice is sound.
