i havent posted in awhile and wanted to give an update for those who cared. I stayed with the CPA for 4 weeks and really felt the effects kick in during week 3. Unfortunately I m pretty active in sports and the side effects caught up with me a lil more than I expected! I bruised easily and remained extremely stiff and sore after sports or working out, to the point I had a hard time even simply walking.

I was pleased with the powerful effects of CPA, it does work - atleast for me, I still have a very small amount of cum with an orgasm and my testicles shrunk quite a bit in size and have not returned back to normal either, I am about 10 days removed from CPA.

I m hoping to start an intense 6 week workout program and see how quickly my strength gains are, especially knowing I m a lil low on the T level. Once I build up my strength and mass again I want to try another round of CPA, I just lost too much strength and weight to continue with my level of activities right now.

My question to the group is, do you think I will regain my testicle size? How long does the effects of CPA at 100 mg take to wear off and do you think my second time around will have better, quicker results , or will it be the same as my first time, where things started rather slowly??

Sorry to ramble on.....min_j

Results vary from person to person, but with that short of a time for taking it, you'll probably be back to normal in about the same it took to "get there" or perhaps a touch longer. I wouldn't be worried too much if you've stopped it.

I agree with Paolo. I'm sure each person reacts differently. It took 2 weeks to 'kick in' for me. I think if you take a break from it you'll probably have to wait 2 -3 weeks before you notice energy levels rise, for example.

I'm not experienced to really give you an opinion but I would imagine that if you re-start in the future that it will take about the same amount of time before you notice changes.

Min johnson, call it curiosity, but… didn’t you know about the effects Androcur or more accurately lower testosterone levels would have on you? I mean as a result of a decreased metabolism caused by the lower T levels one would expect to have less energy

If you call it unfortunate, why do you continue to play them?

min johnson, yes, your testicles will return to normal size eventually. As a bodybuilder, I have done several cycles of steroids to gain muscle mass and my balls shrunk every time, but returned to normal size once i was off cycle.

The body has an incredible ability to restore equillibrium once chemicals are removed.

Alfred-

I took alot of time and did alot of question asking both here and with docs prior to starting CPA. I dont think anyone can read the future and know the exact effects on a body until its done- I m aware of what T levels do and made a decision to go for it.

I enjoyed the effects however need to lay off for awhile during my rigorous sports schedule.

Thanks muscle m for the feedback, thats what i was looking for- nice to see a fellow bodybuilder in here.

one other thing Alfred- I didnt have decreased metabolism, if you read my statement closely you would see I LOST weight , didnt gain weight..my abs actually looked better strangely, but i attribute that to my diet during the regimen.

I have been on Andro for just under 3 months now and I have to say both my wife and I love the results. I do not put any pressure on her for sex and with the help of the strap-on she bought me can have it when ever she needs, about once a month. My question is it is getting time to re-order but I was thinking of converting to Depo for both the cost savings and ease of use. Has any one converted in mid treatment or should I just keep what is working?

Thanks

I think there was a good post about this in regards to liver toxicity. Depo is probably less stress? Or was it the other way around. Either way I would be serious about having a yearly physical and getting lipids and liver function checked to be sure your not hurting yourself. I also would at least consider opening up with my Doctor and explaining what your doing so he/she can keep an eye on things and insure your health. I think I asked how often your wife felt the need in another post. Now, I know. Once a month?! Yikes that would make castration look much better to me. I don't think I could handle that for long.
