I took DHEA for a couple weeks, noticed some pimples - that is about it.
As far as T3, I did a little backwork, and i *think* I saw the bad sides at 75mcg. I was going to back down to 50mcg, but decided to scrap it totally, not worth it IMO. Again - my experience.
I never noticed any BAD sides with V ar, or with any other AA S for that matter. I got more agressive with V ar, since it is milder, the other things I have taken I was VERY conservative. The drug doesn't make the results anyway, lol. Things I noticed with V ar - pimples on face, oily skin on face and back, and that is about it ..... I am unsure on the impact on my blood panel, since I was bad and did not get one done!
Things that CAN HAPPEN - acne all over body, oily skin, enlarged clitoris, increased sex drive, voice deepening, compromised cholesterol panel, increase liver values (orals are tough on the liver!), hair growth on body, hair loss on head, among others. V ar is unlikely to cause the so-called "bad sides" - but it IS POSSIBLE. When ever you take a steroid, you have to accept the risk that you MAY develop some of the "bad sides". If you cannot accept those risks, then I would drop the steroids.
I found the best results with 10mg ED, running it for about 10-12 weeks. NO REASON to go above 10mg is diet and training are tight. More does not always equal better results - but more CAN increase the chance of sides.
If this is your first cyce, I would have started out lower, at 5mg or 7.5mg. But that is me. If you see results at lower doses, then you can stay there - no reason to take more "just because". Ya know? If you start seeing undesirable sides, then back down the dose to 7.5mg.
