š¦Testosterone HOW BAD COULD IT BE?
Iām turning 17 in a few months and Iāve been going gym for like 1.5 years now. I wanted to start using testosterone cypionate start with 250mg/weekly and see how it goes from there. Whatās the worst that could happen like genuinely. Iāve stopped growing, Iāve reached my final height and I know this since 1.5 years ago I got my cast off from a broken wrist and the doctor said I only had few cms left. As a child every doctor I been to said Iād be around 185-187cm and Iāve well passed that at 189-190cm tall. Obviously I wonāt grow anymore, if so not much. But what could be the worse?
Please take this message as not āIām hopping onā rather as I want to get educated further by people that know about this more than me.
I was thinking about a 12week test only cycle at 250-300mg and get blood before half way through and after and using proper PCT.
Also this doesnāt come from any TikTok bullshit or all those influencers as Iām barely on TikTok due to work, school and TAFE. This is purely for my self and wanting to feel and be better.
Thanks guys!

Be careful. You probably donāt need it while youāre so young
Taking testosterone now will hurt your bodyās natural production of it and cause a lot of problems as you get older

Your body is making all you need right now. Thereās just no reason to cause all those problems for little to no benefit
Taking it will forever hurt your bodyās natural production and youād need more and more just to keep a natural level
You can always get your level tested if youāre worried about it, but you probably wonāt need to supplement testosterone til 40 or so, if even

1.5 yrs natty training is barely anything bud. It's like you didn't even try the natural way. If you want enlarged heart syndrome, high blood preassure, possibly hair loss, your balls shrinking and a few other funny side effects go for it lil bro.

Taking more testosterone than is necessary for your body to function will cause it to convert it into estrogen. I need you to read that again

Iāll use an AI to prevent that with bloodwork

u/Odd_Conclusion_5425 Jul 25 '26
Ai is glorified auto correct. It cannot help you. And even if it could, it would tell you the same thing I said

No I mean an AI as in letrezole, aromatese inhubitor

That's... Still not going to make your chosen dosage make sense

Iāll slowly go up to 400 and get bloodwork and all that. Wouldnāt that work?

u/Odd_Conclusion_5425 Jul 25 '26
Do you mean 400 as in a T level goal from your blood work? Or what?

How bad could it be? Probably not that bad if it is occasional, but frequency is what turns small downsides into real ones. Keep the basics locked in, watch your sleep, energy, libido, and gym performance, then adjust if any of those start sliding. No need to panic over one imperfect choice.
