Yesterday I've had a discussion with a buddy of mine if test should be piramyded or tapered. I'm very well aware of the benefits of tapering, but one of his arguments to piramyd is acne-prevention; according to his theory you should start with a low dose of test so that your body 'gets used' to it. I personally never heard of this. What are your opinions on this issue?? ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Like most of the guys said acne is a problem for almost everyone usually in the beginning and the end of the cycle. The fluctation of hormones is what causes it. Acne and As go together and something you have to deal with regardless of how many products and tapering idea you may have. There are ways to help prevent it like tanning,b5,3-4 showers a day and accutane if it comes to that. I am really worried bout acne but like the other guys said there is worse sides then acne to worry about. Complextion is a big deal I understand that but so is your liver, kidneys, blood pressure etc. just my 2 cents ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I totaly agree that there are worse side effects than acne..personally I'm not worried about it at all!! But I like to give this buddy of mine a conrete answer. Ok. so I understand the fluctation of hormones causes acne. But if the fluctation is more intens, will it cause heavier acne?? In other words; will 750mg sust. give more acne than 250 mg?? ------------------ [This message has been edited by back2basics (edited November 25, 2000).] ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

OK, last attempt-> BUMP!! Ps. The reason why he doesn't want to taper the test. instead of piramyding is purely to prevent acne, and I think that's nonsence! ------------------ [This message has been edited by back2basics (edited November 25, 2000).] ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I think if someone is prone to getting acne from AS, then you are going to get it regardless. Any pyramiding or tapering 'to get use to it' really isnt going to make any difference. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
