His bloods are as follows with areas of concern bolded and in red with avg range of values in brackets.

ENDOCRINOLOGY

ACTH Level - 39.7 pmol/L (0.0-12.0) HIGH
Growth Hormone 2.2 mU/L (0.0-15.0) DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS LOW FOR HIS AGE?

CREATININE CLEARANCE

Urine Volume - 4.5 L/24hr
Serum/Plasma Creatinine - 99 umol/L (60-110)

Creatinine Clearance - 191ml/min (85-125) HIGH


Urinary Protein

Urine Protein - 0.09 g/L
Urine Protein - 0.41 g/24 hours (<0.15) HIGH



So those are his levels.... since receiving his bloods he has dropped the Winstrol and Tren A.

He has also reduced his Test E to 250mg.

What other recommendations can you guys make?

He has started Humanofort, 3g Vitamin C and Phosphatidyl Serine 100mg x 3 daily to reduce Cortisol and ACTH levels.

I dont know what to recommend for him about the others however?

What do you guys think?

 

[Anafit]

"Several studies have identified that androgenic compounds reduce the level of 21-hydroxylase (Hornsby, 1982) and cytochrome P-450 (Brownie et al., 1970), enzymes responsible for cortisol synthesis."

Tren and winstrol in particular inhibit cortisol production. So the source is likely to be stress or some other contributing and not the steroids.

thankjs

any1 else/?

 

[Springbok]

is it wise to cycle humanofort as your body may become accustomed to it in the long run and reduce its effects?

or do many ppl just use it constantly?
