TweetWhy Deca for your first cycle? I would go with a single ester like Test Enan or Cyp for 10 weeks. Deca can really shut one down at the level of the testes making them unresponsive to LH. When I came off deca it literally killed my sex drive for about 4 months...I'll never touch it again. Don't get me wrong, It lubricates and "heals" the joints and has personally helped me many times with joint problems due to heavy training.
Bad thing was "deca dick" which some people get and some don't. I unfortunately did. Didn't use test though with it or proviron or anything adrogenic to make up for it. Also it bloated me alot but I was also eating like a fat slob.
My nuts shrunk to a size i have never seen before when i took deca, and 12 weeks out from a cycle i still have low natural test levels. I can stay on test or even fina for a very long peroid of time , and be able to get my test levels back to normal within 4 weeks after a cycle.
Deca is just not worth the extra shut down. If i did deca again , i would run HCG atleast twice durring the cycle. I think that's it for deca though...
