Hey everyone, I used to post here a while back under the name AaronCA, but can’t for the life of me remember my login info.
Contemplating just adding some MENT to my TRT just for a 16-20 week cycle, nothing crazy. I know Iron_Yuppie spent some time playing around with it, but he too seems to have stopped posting on here?
Has anyone else tried MENT in the last year or so? If so, was it a “low dose” similar to IY?
Curious to hear your results, and pros/cons from using it.
Thanks in advance
I ran it at 5mg/day during a previous cycle and it REALLY boosted my mood. I was running so much other stuff I cannot really say how much it helped outside of mood. But I did cut down to around 11% BF all while getting a bit stronger. I think a “blast” dose is anywhere from 15-35 mg/day
Interesting. Yeah, I want to say Iron and I spoke about working my way up to 15-25mg a day with a sharp eye on any side effects to know if I need to back it down a touch. I hover between 11-13% body fat year round, and although I occasionally like to clean things up to get under 10, my main goal here is to just put on a little more size. I’ve lost a decent amount dealing with an injury over the last two years, and think it might be a good addition to help just boost things a bit without too much risk. Currently sitting around 5’10, 196lbs and although In-Body shows me at 10%, I’m more realistically around 13% right now.
Thanks for your report! Much appreciated!
I did 2-3mg/day for about a month just to see if I could get any of the positive sides people report with it. I might as well have been injecting water from what I could tell.
Same source as @wsmwannabe so it should have been good.
A thread from the late great @iron_yuppie
Where did he go? He’s still active on other forums 
Really? On Reddit?
He didn’t post in a long time

Thanks. I haven’t looked there for quite a while. Always loved his contributions here. Very practical information.
Yeah, he and I have chatted a bit via email previously about his experience with it, and my plans for it. Figured I’d see if anyone else has ran it here. Definitely sucks to see he’s not active here anymore, definitely one of the good ones!
Like @wanna_be I tried it for a few weeks up to 15mg per day. Nothing ground breaking over test. I did notice more hair loss which is why I stopped. I was considering trying it again sometime, but for now I’m sticking to what works best for me.
High test with Finasteride or Dutasteride is pretty good IME (only used Fin). I get some are afraid of the sexual sides, but not many get them, and if you get them just stop taking it. The bigger studies haven’t shown lingering sexual sides after stopping Finasteride. IIRC something like 3-5% got sexual sides, and all of them reversed within a month, and this was a study of like 3000.
To me it doesn’t make sense to not use something like Finasteride for hair, if willing to use 19 nors.
I would think EQ would be just fine with Finasteride, but you wouldn’t get much of the anabolic DHB from it.
From what I’ve read, 19nors and finasteride were a bad mix. It blocks conversion to DHN, which intensifies androgenic sides. I can concur from personal experience with hair loss, seemed worse, especially tren. How much finasteride do you take? I’m sticking to test and Eq from here on out I think anyways.
I’ve heard that too. Another reason I don’t want to use nandralone.
I guess my point is that I might not get some roundness on cycle with just high dose Test, but I should be able to get good gains. The roundness goes away after the cycle anyways.
I take 0.5 mg ED. I started at .25 mg ED. I might go to 1 mg since I seem to handle it pretty well. On the 875 mg Test blast my DHT was in the normal range on 0.5 mg ED though. TT was just under 4700 ng/dL.
EQ is mildly interesting to me. I am not really afraid of using a bit of Adex though (and I also respond well to that, and only need a tiny bit). Test with Fin and Adex was a pretty clean cycle as far as stuff like acne, bloat, hairloss. If I couldn’t handle Adex the EQ would be more appealing.
