Test cycle

[dhall2020]

Just began to run my second cycle. Just test cyp 250mgx 2 week

fir couple of weeks was feeling good. Body and libido wise. Past week libido has took a dip and my stomach keeps swelling up.
Would people suggest an aromatise inhibitor? I’d so any advice.
Thank you

Bloodwork is needed as well as your basic stats

For me AIs are must for any cycle. Better to be safe than sorry. Mine of choice is aromasin 12.5/E3D.

1. Get bloodwork!
2. Back the dosage off and see if that helps

Kind of hard to say without BW.. but there are a decent amount of people out there who get impacted with an AI..

Let's hear more about your diet! What was it prior to starting your cycle and any changes you made once you started your cycle.

How far are you into your cycle thus far? My libido is strongest on TRT only and even high test solo can affect my libido at times. I wouldn't jump to conclusions without labs. IMO you should ride it out awhile as big swings in your hormones, assuming this is early in cycle, take awhile for your body to adjust.

Only a few weeks in....and only 500 test....I would doubt you need an Anti Estrogen. As stated above things are not stable yet with the long ester involved. I'd wait see and monitor to see if this "swelling" you describe gets worse.
Also as stated above if you have had a diet change that would certainly be first suspect for stomach changes.

What was your first cycle?

Well.. short of running blood work it's hard to tell... but.. id say you are having estro related issues.. some are just " converters".. but I am truly against the over use of aromatase inhibitors.. they have a tendency to sneak up on you after a couple weeks to tank estro level.. not good.. so you could do like bboy said and lower your dose or.. you can try a small amount of a aromatase inhibitor.. if you have arimidex ( quality arimidex) try .5 mg.. you shoukd see a slight difference in libido in a day or so.. try .5mgs twice a week.. weds Saturday.. example.. or if you have aromasin try 12.5 mgs or even 6.25 mgs .. twice a week.. you shoukd notice a difference in a week if it's estro related..
