Right, here goes:

I ran low dose S4 for about 4 weeks, good power gains on 5-10mg BD. stopped for a few days over xmas, felt like total shit. Thought it was over reaching from a massive training week & some gastro enteritis. Felt better getting back on the same S4 dose. I stopped it for good 2 weeks later, then had bloods done 4 days afterwards (S4 has a short 1/2 life, so thought 4 days would be a good time point).

T came back at 63 ng. Fits with how i feel right now. my nuts have dissapeared, i'm moody, irritable & sleep is all over the place. I've started HCG/ ATD/ nolva.

With such a short 1/2 life i think sarms shuts you down like andriol would- it felt pretty good being on it, but shit when you stop. I'd recommend anyone else to do a proper PCT before ending the cycle, unlike what I've had to do!

i might have to change my name to "bananawoman" with such a rubbish Test. level

Anthony Roberts ( love him or hate him ) said that SARM's would shut you down like any anabolic, well over a year ago, maybe two. I think the guys perpetuating the myth that it didn't shut you down were trying to make a quick buck.

Well, bad news I guess!!! Do you know what test level you started at before SARMS bananaman? I think you wrote earlier in another thread that it was around 300 ng but I am not sure..

test was 220 pre- my natty T is low, usually 200-400. The pre sarms test was after about a week of PCT following a 4 week low dose test cycle with 1,4AD.

I dropped about 1% BF based on my vein calculator, also dropped about 2kg though i was being careful with what I eat. I'm fairly lean most of the season so didn;t expect too much to change with the SARMs.

Didn't do any formal strength testing, although I got stronger doing low cadence hill work. This may not have been due to SARMs, as it was a new workout for me anyway, so improvements would be expected.

Despite the severe lack of test in my system I still managed 2x20 today at 96% & 91% without feeling too beaten up

Is it possible you never fully recovered from the 4 week test cycle? I would think you would need more than a week of PCT to recover. But 4 weeks is pretty short to shut you down as well.

I ran Sarms for 2 months and didnt notice any nut shrinkage and no loss of libido either. i didnt feel it shut me down but I only ran 10mg/day with the occasional 20mg day. I was pleased with it.

Dr. Chrisler is giving a talk on Sermorelin at the A4M National convention in December so he isnt giving out a bunch of Information before then.

when was banana's 4 week t cycle? banana how long did you wait before running the s4? did you do bloodwork before taking? im a bit confused... and quite sad to hear it had such negative effects on you, i was really hoping the 10mg a day was going to just right

I had a couple of weeks PCT after the 4 week T cycle, & tested T before SARMS- the level was reasonably close to my (shit) natty T level.

PCT was 350 HCG E3d from the last week of test (100mg/week), then ATD &nolva ED

Well, since you do endurance training, we don't know for sure if the low test was due to the s4 or not.

my natty test is between 200-400, after good PCT following 4 weeks of test it was low 200's, after about 6 weeks total SARM's & no PCT it was 67! think I'm techically female with a level that low.

Funny thing is I can maintain power output, but reco. is nowhere near as good. & motivation is low

Are you going to run some serms or some exo test?

hitting the PCT hard: on HCG, tamoxifen & ATD, VitD3, Maca & pregnenolone/DHEA. Didn't get the Test. level result for about a week after stopping the SARM's, so 1 week delay starting PCT. not ideal but hopefully will be ok

Yeah, well we did't think that pct was needed. You should be alright doing it late. I might as well do a cycle if I have to do pct anyway. Goog luck and let us know how it goes.
