bad sides from low dose test??
« on: July 03, 2011, 10:53:11 PM »
 Hi all, some background info this is my first bicycle and been running prop for two weeks now eod 100 mg and i decided to up the dose to 200 mg shot did it once and two days later i start breaking out like a mad man all over my shoulders/back.., so i havent inject for like 8 days now and its still there, what do you all say as to the cause of this? Bad genetics, upping the dose too fast? Thoughts/ recommendations appreciated..may look into taking accutane but that's as a last resort i am just wondering if anyone else had experience like this from a fairly low dosage of test.

stay off the accutane, very nasty shit.

for real you dont need (notice i say need) more than 300-400mg per week.

thanks , and this is why i'm going to push it back to a mwf 100 mg each which should (i hope) keep my acne at bay...i am genetically prone to it though had it throughout high school so we will see. It just sucks taking my shirt off to see it, pisses me off lol.

Some people just react differently to test or other compounds. My buddy can't do more than 100mgs a week without massive headaches, bp going though the roof and blood lipids going fucking crazy. Don't know why its h-grade upjohn test. Just can't do it has to take milder steroids but gets insane gains as well. He's an engineer that works for Boeing and has great insurance. But for the life of me I can't convince him to have the doc see why the test effects him so. But he received a script so its practically free... we do some trading on occasion.

ya some people are more sensitive to break outs than other and some break out more on certian compounds than others.
I myself break out like hell on test e once i go past 750mg/week (below that i get just 1 or 2 pimples),on prop i dont break out for shit ..but ive only gone as high as 75mg eod of prop. I've also never had acne or pimples on any part of my body pre-roiding...so i wasnt genetically inclined to break out, it just happens.
Then i have friends who can run 1g/week of anythign and not get 1 pimple..then theres others who break out just looking at a bottle of test.

My worst acne breakout was from 2 sustanon a week...

now I take 5x this dosage and barely have anything that pops out.

a doctor said to me it was from the variation of hormones, so that's why most get acne at the beginning of the cycle and when they go off.

makes sense to me

I GET BAD ACNE TOO...TRY VITAMIN B6 AT 3000-5000MG A DAY. WITHIN 2 DAYS IT CLEARED UP. AND HAVE A TOWEL WITH YOU, IF YOU SWEAT PROFUSELY....ALWAYS STAY CLEAN. I FACE WASH 3-4 TIMES A DAY, TAKE 4 GRAMS VITAMIN B6 AND ITS DOING GOOD.STILL THERE THOUGH. KINDA SUCKS.

There's only one thing that's ever caused me to break out and that was Clomid. Happened every single time I ever used it. It was never horrific, just on the shoulders and back but there were always some big nasty ones.

Try washing the area with Nizoral shampoo.  It's an anti-dandruff shampoo with 1% ketoconazole as the active ingredient.  Things will probably get worse before they get better.  Been on gear for a year.  Initially broke out on my lower back.  Once that cleared up it moved to my chest and then to my shoulders.  The longer you are on, the more your body will acclimate and eventually you'll begin to clear up.  Tanning will help to dry out your skin as well.  Stay the course...if you want it bad enough, you'll continue despite the acne

the fuck if i am stopping now, thanks for the posts everyone. it happened two weeks into running 400 mg prop a week eod 100 mg's . like i said i am genetically predisposed to it when i was in hs i had it on my shoulders/back but not as much as this, or so i think. I dropped it to 300 mg prop a week but i agree once i am on for  longer (plan to be on for at least 12 more weeks), hopefully the levels in my body stabilize and i am able to clear up. I may even resort to tanning lol.

Wash your body with shampoo, not soap...its easier on the skin wash with hot water thn cold to open then close the pores...tan in a bed once a week atleast and stop being scared of a little acne! I wouldn't stop taking gear cuz of it....fuck it....I always break out on my pct,and sometimes on my shoulders/back while on...stay away from sugar as well

Don't you mean B5? B5 works for me. I take 6 grams per day when I breakout.

I'm prone to back/arm breakouts and have found a few hours in the sun / under a lamp will clear my skin right up.

You might also find your skin is tighter from burning off sub-q water.
