Hey everyone, looking for advice on my third cycle. I have been lifting for around 10 years but started late in life, around my mid/late 20s. Currently 6'0 213lbs.
My first cycle was 12 weeks, I started with 500mg test/week with 50mg tbol starter and HCG throughout. Unfortunately I had to drop down to 375 test/week because I was getting sides. Acne, bloated, high blood pressure, and even itchy nips which required AI intervention. PCT went fine and after I lost the water weight I still ended up +13lbs and looked better than before I started, especially once I leaned out.
My second cycle was much better. 16 weeks, slowly increased to 525mg test/week with 50mg tbol starter and HCG throughout. Sides were much easier to manage this time, but I still had some acne, increased bp, and bloat. I am currently PCTing but I feel like I made substantial progress this round and actually starting to look better, more masculine, etc.
I am looking for advice on a third cycle. I have read about adding npp, primo, mast, and even low dose tren (70-150mg per week), but I'm not sure what to use next. I would love a cycle where I don't get as bloated. However, I am prone to mpb, and have been successful with running just test and a strong hair loss protocol (fin, ketoconazole, dermarolling, RU), so maybe I just stick with that (could rerun the same cycle or increase to 600mg/week). I would like to hear advice from more experienced members. Thank you for your time and I really appreciate the feedback from this forum.
