Sore balls on Msten.

[Billy Rubin]

Hi,First time pro hormone cycle. Had to stop 2 and a half weeks into an Msten cycle, because my balls were aching real bad(dull ache, like blue balls). It started off intermittently, just a bit of stimulation in the balls,nothing that bothered me too much. I had heard about this effect from guys kickstarting their balls back into action from hcg, "sore balls are working balls", but not at the start of a prohormone cycle. The further into the cycle the worse it became, until it was pretty constant and began to feel nauseous. Took an ibuprofen, stopped the Msten and started PCT with CelulcorP6. 5 days after stopping still some ache but definitely reduced, and intermittent. Small amount of sensitivity to the tips of the nipples, which comes and goes(could be paranoia). Gained 2kg, no major strength or endurance, though I did look and feel more pumped. Apart from the ball ache I did feel pretty good especially post workout, and at rest. Should I be doing anything else? Has anyone else heard of similar effects from Prohormones ? Should I stay away from anabolics in general or try a different compound in a couple of months? Advice is much appreciated. Thanks.

Didn't notice any significant shrinkage of the balls, but they do feel less firm than usual.

But what did you do for PCT... P6 ain't much else than a natty test booster. Where's your serm? I wouldn't have stopped a cycle of sore balls.. perhaps jerkin more or having more pussy on tap (excuse my language), would have alleviated your strange symptom.

I've had it happen to me before actually, it might be a minor infection which is cured with a few days with some antibiotics. No real need to stop cycle tho.

Thanks guys for your responses. I'm down here in Australia, products are under the counter stuff. The guy who sold me the stuff said I "should be okay re testosterone production shutdown, because of the relatively short length of the cycle, and shouldn't need a serm because Msten doesn't aromatize". I have ordered some nolva and arimidex but they won't get to me for a couple of weeks, can also get some letrozole if I definitely develop noticeable gyno.I made sure the gerkin got its fair dose of jerkin. That relieved things temporarily. I aint as young as I used to be(early 40's) and my sex drive is not as high as it was a couple of years ago, plus no Gf at the moment. No problem getting a boner though. Still curious about the cause, whether it was my balls shutting down, or an infection like JD suggested, or is it possible the Msten increased my own ball activity?How long does the msten stay in your system after finshing? Despite six days off I have just started to notice strength increases and having awesome workouts. Could it be the other testosterone booster starting to work?

Just thought I'd finish this off for anyone that might have similar issues in the future. Ball pain stopped about week after stopping the MSTEN. Clomid arrived in the post, and brought my balls back to a meaty, firm consistency. I have come to the conclusion that anabolic assistance doesn't seem to work very well for me, as I seem to be in the minority of people that have a very harsh and painful shutdown of natural T production. The ball pain was beyond discomfort and didn't seem like it was going to stop whilst on the capsules. It got to the point where I couldn't get to sleep at night due to the pain. Driving and walking was bloody painful too. I even got trouble from clomid only 25mg/day a low dose. Very dry mouth and nasal cavity, which developed into a painful sinus like symptoms and achy joints, full like symptoms after a week and a half, despite increasing fluid intake. This stopped two days, after discontinuing clomid. Very envious of you guys that have a milder T shutdown than me.

Sounds like the chemical lifestyle is not for you. I have been shutdown for 8 years straight. Doesn't bother me a bit =)

This very interesting....I hope others comment. I've been a long time lurker on here but never posted. This post has brought me out of hiding sorta.

I think I have experienced what you described but it only last for about two hours. I've done several cycles now and am currently running HaloXT/11X cycle. I'm at the 4 week point so bumped the Halo up to 125mg a day or basically 5 caps. I got terrible ball pain a few days ago. I think it happens when I take the doses two close together on very little calories. It has happened with a previous EPI run. So my solution is space out the doses a bit further.

Sounds like you are calling it quits, but it you ever decided to give a go again, try spacing out your doses a full 12 hours. Just my two cents...

Sorry you had these issues.

Not to make it any better because pain is pain but this could have been prostate related.

Prostatitis can cause testicular pain.

Either way apparently you and those ph's aren't a good mix.

I've had that before,nothing to scare,it's either prostate related or a lot of test being produced
