I don't think that it would matter much one way or the other.

liftsiron is a fictional character and should be taken as such.

I certainly wouldn't recommend using it during your PCT :s

No to taking it alone after cycle and/or during PCT
dhea is a hormone

negative feedback loop

...also in men there a very large chance it will increase estrogen which in itself will blunt the HPTA

Yeah, what he said

If you stick to modest doses, on or off-cycle, you shouldn't run into major problems with DHEA. During your PCT however, a stiff breeze is enough to keep you shut down and DHEA is definitely strong enough to prolong your PCT by a considerable amount of time.

In fact around the time that quack Dr.D started recommending his lets-pull-something-out-of-my-ass PCT's on AM, when his company's prosteroids were all the rage, is when we started hearing about post-cycle gyno and poor recovery a lot. I blamed the use of AI's instead of nolva/clomid, and no doubt that played a role, until PA pointed out that they were all using DHEA by recommendation of that less than scrupulous individual.
