Hey guys I'm on my first cycle of halo extreme at 4 caps a day and I'm in day 2 of week 2 so basically I have been on the cycle for a total of 8 days and my nipples got really soft on day 3 or 4 and it seems like there's a little loose skin around my nipple is this normal on cycle of halo extreme?
 
Lol I'm not playing with them I just happened to touch them and wondered if the softness is normal? Is it? I know you're not supposed to touch them cause of the receptors. Just a little worried.

OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!
You are fine, seriously. If your nipples don't itch or burn like a mother fucker for a few days in a row non-stop and then become so painfully sensitive that it hurts to have your shirt rub against them, you don't have anything to worry about.
 
Alright cool thanks lol. Just making sure first cycle and all. Was having some prostate issues, but saw palmetto happened to clear it up. Just trying to keep everything in check.
 
RSP knows what's up! lol Btw how much do you weigh? Doubling the recommended dose may be a bit much for a first run of a compound... I would not have recommended you start at that dose unless you had over 220lbs of lean body mass (fat free mass).
 
Must be gyno week here, kinda like when they do Shark week on TV, except totally different...

I weigh 180 at 11%. I was told to start with 100mg cause the compound wasn't that strong. I was originally going to start with 75mg. You think I should go back to 75mg

75mg is plenty strong for me at over 240lbs and less than 9% bf.... You're running it for 6wks correct? It's mild in terms of sides but moderate in terms of strength. It's not a weak compound by ANY means.

I figured I should stick with that, but I was on some other forums and people were telling me to do 100mg. I've only been doing 100mg for 7 days if I drop down to 75mg will I increase any sides or its totally fine to drop it down? Also will dropping it down help with hair shedding cause I'm shedding pretty bad right now?

worrying alone can lead to hair shedding. Dropping dosage shouldn't make shedding worse, you'll have less to worry about. Taking less will not lead to more sides.

Adrenolin it's a 6 week cycle. Well I figured when you get off a cycle you have to do the pct/nolva so I was just making sure it wasn't the same for when dropping down in dosage as well. Well I'm hoping when I drop the dose down the shedding will also come down. Wasn't worried about it at all until I took a shower today and looked down at the floor lol. Hoping a lower dose will stop if not then whatever just going to finish the cycle and rock whatevers left on the head lol
 
Sounds like you really weren't ready to begin this at all. If this cycle doesn't scare you from ever touching AAS again, take some serious time to familiarize yourself with how these things interact with your body and what you're doing to yourself before trying again.

Hair shedding from a week into an hdrol cycle sounds highly suspect to me, but who knows. It may very well be you quite literally "pulling your hair out" like Biggie said, but if it really is hair shed from the anabolics you may want to look into a topical DHT blocker for you scalp. Losing hair isn't fun...

Any good topical DHT blockers you can recommend?

also shedding should stop once your cycle is over (is temporary). As for dropping the dosage, you'll still have to do the same PCT once you're done, but it should lower the side effects while on cycle if you're having issues at the higher dosage.

I know it'll stop, but will it come back? I highly doubt it. I lowered the dose so will see how this goes hopefully it still works good for me. Bit of acne kicking in now not worried about it as long as I don't start getting cyst like acne. Are these shampoos actually DHT blockers? Can you link the one your using? it didn't come up in my google search. I looked into regenepure seems to have good reviews. I was also thinking about trying the pura d' or hair shampoo since they claim to block DHT. Looking into N2 shampoo as well seems to be made for People on AAS

Roadstarpete did you use the Nizoral shampoo? Did it work? I'm wondering if its like minoxidil and you stop using it the hair sheds faster. I also found N2 Shampoo. Need to build muscle is the one that makes N2 shampoo right? did this shampoo really work?
Biggiesmallz thats good to know hopefully my hair that is shedding comes back, but I won't hold my breath on it
Lol. So I'm guessing since I'm shedding on halo I will most likely shed on all prohormones right? If so that will really suck! Has anyone tried Provillus?

You're taking four caps daily? I was 190 at 6'1 and gained hella strength on just two capsules per day. One in the a.m. and one pre-workout. I've often heard that three capsules daily was the sweet spot.

Who told you Halo Extreme wasn't strong? Fail.
 
Roadstarpete are you using the Nizoral 1% or 2% shampoo?
I read on so many forums that 50mg didn't do much and 75mg was the sweet spot. I started 75mg in beginning, but was told on prohormone forum to up to 100mg for the best result so I did it for a week, but brought it back down to 75mg from what everyone on this forum was saying. Wish i would have just stuck to what i learned. So far strength hasn't gone up much, but I have gotten bigger a wee bit bigger, judging this from the new stretch marks. Shoulders looked much more striated at the gym today.
 
I read you can get 2% from Walgreens, but the source was from 2006 so it could have changed I'll find out tomorrow when I go get some. Any side effects with this? I did some research on it and most side effects are from the orals not the shampoo though the shampoo does get a bad rep cause it's a chemical and it can get absorbed in the body, but from googling side effects don't seem to be that bad at all unless I missed something. You seem to like it so I'm guessing its not bad at all.
 
Well I checked all my local stores and no one has it. Where did you buy yours at? So far I only see it on amazon and some online stores that seem fishy. The amazon one has no reviews though so idk about that one.
 
Let the flaming onslaught ensue: I ran halo at 100mg at 147lbs @21yrs and got no concerning sides..yet.. now come at me.

:rolleyes:

no longer 147lbs...


who cares about hair... shave that shit.. lotsa girls like that anyways. OR, get a bad-ass hat for a sports team you don't follow, like I did.

Some are lucky when it comes to certain compounds while others are not. This once again re-enforces the fact that we are all different and we need to listen to our bodies.
If I recall someone recently had trouble with a cycle.......something turned green and the person was having severe pain in the rib cage area.
I hope that all cleared up for good.
Spot on with the hair comment!:D

who are we referring to here.... :rolleyes:

but alas, i dont think that was any fault of the halo. it may have been due to a specific brand of cycle support... NOT IML! :D
 
Ya I bought some regenepure and ordered Nizoral from Canada lol found the site on hairlosstalk.com. Bro if you saw my Occipital protrusion you'd freak out! I use hair to hide that shiv. I have a funky looking head that I use hair to hide so I need hair. My dad isn't really bald just has a mean receding hair line so I'm hoping I don't go bald lol though my moms brother are all bald. Though I have met a couple girls who wanted to touch the back of my head and then kept rubbing it cause they were astounded by the protrusion lol. In the end if it does fall off I will be rocking the hat lol. I actually lost a lot of hair in the shower yesterday was a bit surprised as I thought it wouldn't be so much since my dad isn't bald.
Roadstarpete any initial shed with Nizoral? Read some people had that with Regenpure.
