I’ve started a 6 week cycle of:
9mg./day Oxavar
150mg./day 1-TU
Even though both of these are said to have very low toxicity, I like to be cautious. Therefore, I’m going to use a milk thistle supplement. However, as I’ve never used milk thistle before, I’m unsure if I should use it during or after my cycle. Which is correct–or does it matter?
Thanks,

I really do not see the point in using milk thistle in the first place. I will run it through out the duration of the cycle. Its for your liver. But a lot of people wont see changes in the liver enzymes unless they are using very toxic drugs. At that they will go back to normal after the cycle has ended. I really dont think that you will see any changes at all.
Don’t bother with it unless your liver is already in poor shape due to pre-existing conditions, alcoholism, etc. And anyway if that is the case, you shouldnt be using alkylated steroids to begin with. Milk thistle is just a herbal supplement and I don’t know as to what research has been done to prove as to how effectively it does what it proports to do. Not worth the effort with such a mild cycle (plus what people call an “effective dose” of milk thistle can be fairly expensive).

What would an efective dose of milk thistle extract be? I’m using an extract that is 175mg./cap ,standardized to 80% silymarin.
