I don't know many people who would be willing to answer this question. Sounds like this needs to be discussed with a qualified doctor or pharmacist.

Sorry I could not be of more help.

Depakote is metabolized by liver so thats to be watch. Also Dep causes Hyponatermia besides that there is no contraindication rather positive eefects like treating Anemia whicah can also occur from Dep. I can tell you this much as i am a RPh.

Also monitor dep blood levels more frequently since gear binds to SGBH proteins(albumin) and can cause level fluctuations. Effexor should be ok except it can double the sucidal behavior. I would consult with MD.

I would say no, simply because when coming off a cycle many people suffer depression related issues who are otherwise 'normal', so it may be unsafe for you. You're much better off asking both your primary care physician AND a dr. from an HRT clinic or endocrinologist, because frankly a good p.c.p will tell you whether or not he would even know jack on the subject rather than just tell you yes or no, and the HRT/ endo dr's answers may be different since they're supposed to be educated on such matters. But really, your endocrine system plays a big role in how you feel emotionally and may effect brain chemistry in ways people here may not even think of.

well heres the question youd have to ask yourself

what cycle am i going to do

and am i willing to take the risk of getting depressed


I used to be on effexor "however you spell it" for depression and man i had depression bad but while i was on effexor i used to take no-xplode i got to my 3rd bottle of no-xplode and i quit my effexor and the depression went away! literally now im not on any meds..

what i would say is yes you can do a aas cycle but if i were you..when you get off the cycle take some no xplode or somthing cause the chances are is that youll get even more depressed and when you go to the doctor and tell him your more depressed he will increase your prescription which could be a bad thing

so if your going to do it then Monitor you blood pressure and your liver values
Plus make sure you on a mood enhancer to prevent further depression

Bipolar is an emotional thing, some people say pct or clomid makes them cry like a little girl. Not the best thing to do, mixing the two problems. Just an idea to think about. Another thing is steroids can raise aggression, no not roid rage but raise aggression. Another thing to think about.

i take wellbutrin, celexa, and lamictal, and have been on 250mg /wkly omnadren and have no ill effects whatsoever, but obviously a low dose of test...

I would say that it truly depends on how sever your bipolar disorder is. Everyone has mentioned the depression side of things but no one has mentioned that you get a certain "mania" anyway while on test and feel great. That coupled with you going into a manic episode could cause serious problems in your life so it might not be worth it. I am not a medical professional, so your actual best bet is to probably consult with your psychiatrist and let him know what you are thinking about taking. Throw it at him in a 'hypothetical' situation if you are worried about him judging etc/.
