hey guys,

have the opportunity to start a 12 week cycle of Deca Durabolin..
i have read a few posts here on Deca, some positive some negative, all containing abbreviations technical words and other acronyms i have no idea what they mean....:confused: ....

so have a couple of questions for the more knowledgeable guys here (meaning everyone except me!!)

1] what are the major side effects?
2] about 'deca d ick" - how could i combat this?
3] whats the best way to taper off a cycle, do i need other things to bring my hormones back to normal levels?
4] what does 'shutdown' mean that appears in some of the posts regarding Deca??
5] whats "eq" mean in some of the posts about Deca...
6] does it just give you big gains in strength? big size gains also? do you keep most of the gains or lose htem?

sorry for being so stooopid when it comes to all of this... i will be training with a few others that take deca/sust/d-bol etc etc - but they me don't sweat it just take the stuff, i prefer doing some info gathering first...

thanks!!!:o :o

1. sides with deca are pretty much the same as test but also people can experience loss of libido also. and it can supress your natural levels for upto 18 months after last shot
2. you can combat it 2 ways. one is adding proviron, the other is having test in your cycle. would advise test.
3. deca tapers itself, its a very long acting ester. you still require PCT when all is done
4.shutdown refers to your bodies hormone output. by taking AAS it floods the body with more than is naturally produced, so the body doesnt produce any testosterone. all AAS does this, not just deca. its just deca can shut some people down hard. thus taking longer to recover.
5. EQ is another steroid. people liken it to deca. but its not the same, and doesnt work in the same way. people who have probs with deca can then use EQ.
6. some people get great gains in both size and strength, i havent used deca and dont intend to. strength and size are also down to your diet,rest,training. aslong as they are all in place, then deca can work well. and when it comes to keeping them, thats down to PCT. if you take care in your PCT period then deca gains can be quite keepable

I did a Deca only cycle and had good gains.
No probs with gyno, no high blood pressure problems.
But I had no libido, small balls 5 months later.
I think you could use that stuff for chemical casteration
It is a great anabolic but i would never take it by itself ever. I will say that again Never ever.
I would take it with a test and at a lower dose than the test and come off earlier than the test.
deca can raise prolcatin, progesterones and the normal stuff like nolva wont block the effects of these.

thanks for the reply!!

whats PCT - proviron?

would you recommend Sust instead of the Deca? i hear the sides are not as much of a problem..

big pete

PCT is post cycle therapy. to get your natural levels back up to speed. usually nolvadex or clomid

sust is a blend of testosterones. would recommend sust+deca, for the best of both worlds
