What’s ur current protocol again?


Not sure how much test u still have in ur system, but just remember that prolactin can increase hair loss. So wait until u reach steady state with ur protocol and hormones to judge things. If there’s too much test along with the nandrolone, it can cause estrogen to increase too much, and since estrogen is the main stimulator of prolactin production in the male body, it can cause prolactin to increase, which could negatively affect hair


Low estrogen can also affect hair negatively. So when using a nandrolone base, or using it solo, u just have to make sure ur estrogen doesn’t sit too low, for too long. It’s all about finding the sweetspot. Not just where u feel and function ur best, but ideally where hormone levels can be ideal for health and longevity as well

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
