FEELING Lethargic on cycle, wtf?

[stevesmi]

Guys, you MUST be supplementing with DHEA(Dehydroepiandrosterone) while ON CYCLE!

DHEA is an essential adrenal hormone! When on cycle, your HPTA is shutdown, and you are no longer producing testosterone or DHEA.

Take 50mg in the am and 50mg in the PM!

does formestane have it? that is what i'm taking now

or should i invest in dermacrine as well?

Transdermal DHEA(such as Dermacrine) will increase testosterone moreso than actual DHEA levels, which is not what we want.

ORAL DHEA supplementation is superior for HRT/Cycling purposes, as less gets converted in to Testosterone and estrogen.

I agree with not using during PCT because it's labeled as a pro-hormone...but a lot of people argue on how effective DHEA is...

Have you tried cycling with and without it and noticed a difference?

Personally, I've never used it. Maybe I should give it a go on my time 'round.

Yes, when I cycle WITHOUT DHEA, by the middle of my cycle I am very lethargic and have a decreased mood and libido. I now always use DHEA while on cycle.
