I am 50, not a hard core lifter, and just completed 10 week cycle of .5 ml injections of testosterone cypionate, once every 10 days. I had low testosterone (280) and tried this cycle, and was very pleased with all results. I did my last injection 10 days ago. 

Do I need to be concerned about PCT in order get my testes producing testosterone again? If so, what would you recommend with what I have available:

10 Anastrozole .5 mg caps
70 Nolvadex (Zymoplex) 20 mg tabs
14 Amastrozole 1mg tabs
9 5000 iu amps of Pregnyl

Thanks for your help!

If you were using a very low dose and just using synthetic test to aid recovering natural Test then Pct may not be required, but if you feel like you have been suppressed its best to get some free advice....i Personally Would Run Your Tamoxifen @ 40>20mg Ed For A Couple Wks Just To Be Safe...exactly How Much Test Were You Injecting Per Week???? How Many Mgs

I was using .5 ml and the test was 200 mg/ml so I guess that makes 100 mg. per injection. The amount was a recomendation of a Physician, but unfortunately he does not have the answer for PCT. Thanks!

given that most younger males produce about 70mg/wk of natural test each week and that your test contains an ester you will only be injecting about that anyways, so in theory pct is not required as that is well within normal limits, pct is optional, but if you want to play it safe, run 20mg tamoxifen everyday for the next 2wks and see how you feel.....best of luk, keep us posted bro

 Thanks for the response. This is cool forum, and I have learned a lot here. I have not posted yet, but read a bunch of the posts just to learn more.

Did you see the physician because of low test? Not clear how he recommended it? You planning on continuing the test or you now stopping totally? Why did you stop? Any chance you could have any blood work and see the physician again?

Im kinda thinking that when I hit 50 I'll be on low dose test for good! And that ain't far away. Also low dose I'd be looking at 125-150mg per week..... But that just me and I appreciate everyone is different!

Yeah kind of agree with above. run some tamoxifen for a few weeks to be on safe side. Clomid would help too. Even though your dosage was low, any amount of test can shut you down to require a pct. I personally always recommend  people to run 1000iu hcg per week whilst on cycle then come off before pct. this keeps testes functioning the whole time and pct is easier. Others like to blast at the end. Whether you will need hcg this time is person dependant but I would use a bit if you feel any shrinkage or the need to. Don't forget hcg needs to be used before or at the very start of pct, not during. Hope this helps.
