Try to hold out the snap back is were it's at. IMO if you have low estrogen to begin with and high dht you won't notice much while on cycle, but you should notice some improvements from the snap back. I notice more improvements from the snap back and herb cycling (PCT), than being on randro.
My plan is a total of 400mg per day for one month. Then you think I should come off of it and supplement herbs? Which ones?

I've been taking 400mg per day, but so far I haven't noticed any changes good or bad.


Well I will say that first cycle I didn't notice much either until the last two weeks. I ran it for 5 weeks the first time, but after each cycle I got more and more sensitive to it. Now I can open up the capsule and pour like 1/10th of it out (10mg) take it and feel it immediately.

You need to run some sort if pct after r andro to combat any suppression caused by it. R andro is very mild but if anything I think it does suppress estrogen. Testosterone boosting will help with balencing your hormones.

Cd's site list all of the recommended herbs trailed by himself and others
Testosterone Boosting Supplement Rotation | Total Male Optimization

You should read the whole site, there is a lot of great info.

The more herbs you have the better but to start I would get tribulus, horny goat weed, pine pollen, he shou wu, long jack, and Mucuna pruriens.

Here is the link to swole source. There are threads you can find with other people with pfs cycling r andro

How long are your on and off cycles? Do you do around 5 weeks every time that you take it? How long should I stay off of it until my next cycle after this one? Is 400 mg per day a good amount?

I took 4 weeks off minimum and I once took 6 weeks off as well.
After each time I took it my cycles got shorter cuz of how much more it hit me but I'm on usually 3 weeks. Haven't ran it in a while. Last cycle was actually only two weeks haha

400mg is pretty solid. That's what I took and on occasion through in another 100mg for shits

Did you find that you've gotten better even when in your off-cycles?

Does if matter how long I wait between my R-Andro cycles?

I ended my first cycle about a month ago. The cycle lasted 4 weeks at 400mg per day. Since the end I've been taking tribulus, maca, horny goat, betaine hcl, zinc, potassium, B12 injections, and a daily vitamin. Unfortunately I haven't had any improvements in libido (still 0%) or erection quality.

I waited at least six weeks between cycles in my recovery. Never had any issues with that. Honestly, androsterone is so lightly suppressive that you'd probably be fine with just a month off.

How would you gauge your recovery as of today?

Still working out some things but overall I'd say I'm at 70% low days 60% and good days at 80%.
I'm probably gunna give Ella a shot n see what happens soon.

did you get the report? Should be looking for oxidation type etc.

What insight were you looking for?

I'm a slow oxidizer lol

I dunno I almost thought I would find some missing vitamin that might be the thing I'm missing haha not so much, but I got what kind of oxidizer I am!
