Alright fellas,

I'm currently on a Sust, Prop, Tren cycle. I just dropped my tren dose from 300mg/week to 200 to see if I can get my blood pressure down, but that is not my concern right now.

I've run many test-based cycles before and never had any reactions or irritation in my prostate, but they were always long acting esters. I only did one other sust cycle and that was when I was still in college and only 250mg a week. (tried a low-dose cycle back then to see how my body would react and it was fine).

Here is my issue, I'm running:

Sust - 500mg/week
Prop - 200mg/week (a bro gave them to me so I threw them in)
Tren - 200mg/week

I'm three weeks in and I feel this tightness and sort of a fatigued feeling around my prostate and I'm wondering if I'm suffering from Benign Prostate Hyperplasia. Being that I never had issues with prostate problems before I never gave much thought to taking any saw palmetto, but I'm realizing now more and more as I get older, my body isn't handling it the same. Went to the doc and they immediately gave me anti-biotics based on the idea that it was in infection, which after finishing the meds, the "feeling" is still there. I guess, I'm curious, will some saw palmetto help reduce the effects of this while still running my cycle or am I at a crossroads and need to decide if I should quit this cycle and regroup? I'm 27 and this is the first time I've ever really had any major issues with a cycle. If saw palmetto is going to help, at what dosage should I try? Any help would be greatly appreciated here fellas and hindsight's always a bitch, so yes, I realize now that I should have paid more attention to prostate health. Thanks fellas.

Some Finasteride or Dutasteride may help as well.

Im 27 too and get that with high aromatizing drugs like sust. I ve been to the doc about this and they too thought it was an infection. It comes and goes but when I get uncomfortable Ill run some Fina and Adex. this ususally takes away the discomfort pretty quick.

I made the mistake of doing too many DHT derivatives in one cycle a couple years back and my prostate was very displeased with me for the first time in my life. Finasteride and saw palmetto are both taken if I cycle anymore. I hate having that bad feeling in the gooch/tween area sad.gif I also hate getting old sad.gif ranting2.gif

That is what I was going to suggest..Finasteride. This is what I use, good stuff.. I get 5mg tabs, and split em in half.. Im not a fan of the herbs, and I think most are hogwash. I wouldnt waste money on the saw palmetto. Might be a good idea to let your doc know what you are taking as well. Only true way to get to the root of the problem.

Thanks for the help fellas. I'm working on getting some Fina, but in the mean time the saw palmetto has helped ease the discomfort. It's good to know that I'm not the only one that has had to deal with this.

Have you ever ran Fina or Deca before. I get that problem from DHT based AAS's (even Proviron) and finasteride doesn't solve my problem. I have to take an Alpha 1 blocker, such as Flomax or Uroxitrol, to solve my problem. Try the finasteide if you can get it and if that doesn't work, try an Alpha blocker. Alpha blockers relax the smooth muscle around your prostate and relieve the pressure that way.

You could also just try dropping any DHT derivative and see if that helps.

Ive heard that saw palmento works well.Ive also had some similar problems with my prostate.When I was taking boat loads of stimerex mine would swell up like crazy.One time I went to take a piss and a whole load of sperm came out insted.It was the first time this has ever happened to me so you can imagine my surprise.So I went to the doc and he told me that it was swollen cause of the stimerex and that the sperm was from the swollen prostate weird huh,well i thought it was.
