I am looking to do my second cycle. My first cycle: 10 weeks; T-e/cyp 500mg/wk, Winnie 20mg/day for last 5 weeks, Nolva 2wks after last T injection, simple cycle. My training age has prepared me for the cycle as I have come very close to my genetic potential: 425 bench press, 500 squat, 355 clean, 285 snatch.
The cycle was light but still put 15 lbs on me and took me from 10% to 6% BF. Gains maintained quite well, responded to cycle and recovered nicely.
Now I was planning on running the same pct of Nolva until I started doing more research on concurrent use of AI’s and Prolactin suppressors, arimidex and Cabergoline respectively. My research shows that the AI will mitigate T-estrogen conversion minimizing gyno, also the prolactin suppressor a show to maintain HPTA function during cycle. Because of this I am considering not using a pct as my natural T should be maintained up to 90% of original levels.
Just looking to see if this is accurate or if someone can point out flaws in my knowledge or advice on wether or not to still do a pct. Just trying to maximize my physical potential with the least harm done to my body and endocrine system. Knowledge is power! Thanks all!

well, i think controlling prolactin and estrogen will make you more successful in PCT, but it won’t make PCT unnecessary.
